I can't speak to this vendor but you have a built-in refund by early March, so for $99 shipped I'd go for it if I didn't already have four versions of this toy >.<

New Transform Element TE-01 OP Commander 3.0 Ver. In stock | eBay

That said, it seems several vendors also have pre-order listings for unspecified dates for an as of yet produced 4th run. Whether this will be a "V4" or another run of V3 is pure speculation at this point, but seeing as every prior version has been tweaked from the last, it seems highly possible.

 

This EBay seller, kaichu-57, listed TE-01 version 3 about 10 days ago.

I'm dying to know what V4 will look like!

 

Wouldn't it be the 2nd one? (before)

 

Toyhax has a sticker set out. Looks pretty good. Now I just need a TE-01.

So they didn't sticker literally the only bit that actually needed it? Cool.

So, I ordered "sleep mode" TE-01 this afternoon. Don't know why. LOL

 

That grey crotch part right? I don't think a sticker there would survive transformation.

 

Maybe you were tired.

 

I just ordered TE-01 Version 3 last night!

I plan to display MP-10 in vehicle mode and TE-01 in robot mode.

Now I just need an MP Megatron for him to fight- and I’m targeting Infinite Transformation Emperor of Destruction- so I’ll probably pick him up next.

 

Which seller?

 

I'm waiting for ShowZ to get theirs in. Hoping V4 will have the correctly coloured bits on the waist

 

Qinshiping*2013 on EBay.
Based in China.
100% feedback rating.
Only 320 transactions since joining in 2013- which sent my “fishy” detector off.
He was selling it for $100, so I felt it was worth the potential risk.
See how it pans out I guess.

 

So... my TE-01S arrived today, and NO battle damaged abdomen piece and NO matrix. It came with a regular, non battle damaged piece installed. Seller says it should have had the battle damaged piece installed and that it's not a "user swappable" part so must have been a factory mistake. This sounds odd to me? WHY would they even have made the non damaged part that was mistakenly installed IF it was only supposed to come with the battle damaged part from the factory? Seller also says none of his stock of the Sleep Mode version have the matrix...

 

I have a Shattered Glass version for sale. 85 + shipping in the States only.

Edit: Sold.

 

TE wants to lower their QC standards it seems  

 

This is the same thing I did but in reverse, I got IT-01 Megatron first and then preordered but still waiting on ShowZ to get the TE-01 Optimus v4 in stock. been thinking about maybe just buying a v3 from that Chinese seller on ebay except my fishy detector keeps going off every time I look at his feed back. Over half his positive ratings are form other users with zero feed back or no longer registered users.....

 

Thats actually the kind of Sleep Version I would’ve preferred!

I have horrible OCD, so that damaged torso part always bothered me. LOL

What was the seller’s name please?

 

Your copy is missing the matrix
