Also Astoria Carlton-Ritz that came with DX9's Powerglide and the Alanna fig that was proposed with ACE Collectible's MIA Seaspray.

 

Lol... had to look him up to figure out what he was. Do have his bro Clampdown, Cordon, GT’s Sarge (JP ver), and Prowl with the Japanese decals. Been waiting on Taiho for awhile now.

 

So has this item been scrapped or what?

XTB Weibo post from Sept 18th says it's coming early October.

 

Thanks. Do you happen to have the link to X-Transbots main/landing page for XTB's Weibo? I can't seem to get to their Weibo front page from that link.
Apparently their Weibo seems to provide more news than the do on TFW2005 boards.

 

If anyone is looking to preorder MX-17 Taiho (XTB Skids Police deco) from Taobao, here are the listings.
淘宝网 - 淘！我喜欢

To get this listing I just went to Taobao.com and ran a search for MX-17T then refined the search further by clicking on category called "mode/play/anime/star/COS" then arranged the results from lowest price to highest price.

Once you pay the preorder deposit of 10-30 yuan (about $2-$4) then the discounted balance will be about 450-470 yuan (about $63-$66 USD) before shipping.

This thing is really imminent. I changed address after I bought this thing last year and informed Baba about it. This morning he reached out to me to confirm my address.

 

I need to PO this guy this weekend.

 

I decided to go ahead and order XTB MX-17T Taiho (XTB Savant/Skids police deco) from Baba. It came out to $77 shipped after coupons.

Is that coupon you posted good for anyone or just your account?

 

I don't know for sure but you automatically get $5 off for orders $50+
You will also get an additional $5 coupon available in your coupons sections once we start buying.

In addition, there is a 15% off coupon you can use from 9/29/2019 through 10/08/2019.

 

thank for the info about 15%. I got it, but it's not today only, it's starting from today until Oct 8th.

 

Thanks. I've updated my post.

 

Thats interesting because I tried to contact baba on ebay about my preorder for Taiho and recieved:

bababobo00712 is out of the office until 10/08/2019 and may not be able to respond to your message.

Message from bababobo00712:

For the inconvenience caused, please understanding, looking forward to provide better service for you！

bababobo00712 sincerely yours

update: I see it on his site, too and I think the "February" was accidental

 

I think the 15% off coupon is for celebration of China's 70th anniversary, so from Sep 30 to Oct 7th it's all public holidays in China, even he won't work during that time, he will honour the coupon.

 

XTB screwed up again? On their Weibo, they said the toy version for Crackup would be coming end of October while this one is coming early October, but of course they shipped out the former already.

Very annoying.

 

Annoying , but all we can do is wait patiently

 

Yes! Wholeheartedly yes!

 

After Skids (blue), Crosscut (silver) and Taiho, there are still a black and red Diaclone version that can be made
