    Good to know as I have already damaged one Soundbarrier with excessive force applied.

    I had to chase mine up. Sent a message on Friday, on Monday I got an invoice and an email asking me to let them know when I'd paid it. No "sorry, we did an oops" which rubbed me up the wrong way, but at least they sorted it out quickly.

    I'm beginning to wonder if they're a bit short of Airwaves as for all the Wave 2 Deluxe dispatch reporting I've heard nothing about my pair as yet.
    I find I'm feeling equally reticent, part of me is thinking with a Smyths stocking we might possibly see some become available at a wee discount?

    I didn't know that they'd released a @Napalm action figure!

    Anyone had their arcee or ER megs from Kapow yet? I paid the invoices a good while back but I know they’re snowed so don’t want to bother them unless others have had them

    I bought a POTP Nemesis on EBay complete just so I can give him two copies of the red sword (second coming from the Siege Netflix one) as like an Animated throwback since Animated Megs is based on Super Megatron ;)

    Got notice of ER Megs dispatch just 4 hours ago, I suspect he won't be actual wheels up until tomorrow though, as the RM tracking is at "on it's way to us" it's likely still due to be picked up.
    Turns out it's just Megs and that pair o' airport fellas for me from Wave 2 due to the Quintesson Moratorium, and my NO THANKS-ing of Arcee, seeing as I have to get a Lifeline for an Earth mode Ratchet.

    I'll tell you one thing @SJW, it's a bloody heavy beast. Snapdragon needed careful balancing to stand up holding it!

    Wonder what ID is putting up for preorder at 10pm. Seeing as it’s that late at night, it’s probably not TF related or popular, as the last time they put a popular TF thing at an unreasonable hour there was quite a stir.

    Star's clue implies Marvel. Could be Silver Centurion, or more likely the mysterious Vision and Scarlet Witch set.

    I’ve not received them yet but I’ve had shipping notices for Arcee, wave 2 deluxes, Megatron and Quintesson, in the last 24 hours.

    I am in no way jealous and impatient for mine:D 

    Amazon sent the usual "we are trying......" Email bollocks let-down about Bluestreak, so obviously that punt was a waste of fucking time. I suppose Forbidden Planet will be next.

    Whatever is going up at 10 tonight......I'll be medicated away and oblivious.

    If it’s Silver Centurion, then colour me interested.

    I have an incredible amount of nostalgia for the design, possibly because it seemed unobtainable as a costume in an Iron Man game from the mid 2000’s.

    12 more and you can make an even bigger Town Square of DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

    Still waiting on a dispatch for Arcee here, all paid up on the invoice.

    Excellent!

    Hope you get yours soon, mine were also from Star Action Figures and they said on Facebook a few days ago they were trying to catch up on a 3-4 day backlog of orders so that could be why yours haven't shipped yet.

    I may still be awake at 10pm but will possibly be finishing the last 4 episodes of Rebels. Been a fun ride so far, just a shame Ezra appears to survive as he's one of several dozen characters from Dave Filoni's previous series being rumoured to be in the 2nd series of The Mandalorian.
