Still no release date on Gen Voyagers Springer and Blitzwing. I'd hate to find these guys at Wal-Mart and have to cancel my order. I had to do that to HasbroToyShop.com back when Universe PowerGlide came out. It wasn't a pre-order but I had yet to see them on my area shelves. (I ordered PG and Universe Blaster (GF Soundwave Redeco) and had to take PG off the list.)

I hate having to do that to businesses, I'll give them till Wednesday to at least give up some new release info before I start hunting locally. My last experience with TFSource was great and shipping was quick as they are the closest site to me besides, of course, TRU. Even if I get a concrete release day for next week, that would satisfy me.

I know they are at the mercy of their supplier but you'd think, being a vendor, that they'd get these products a few days before they even dreamed of being on a shelf, more or less sighted on one. I'm pretty diligent about my hunting and did the pre-order just in case I got un-lucky and missed out on them. I'm hoping pre-ordering wasn't just a waste of $15. I surely didn't get them on release day, or even release week.

I'm sorry TFSource, I'll try and be patient because of my good past experience with you but, you need to drop a hint or some news to let us know what's going on. And if you did, and I missed it, I'm sorry.

Super excited for BW & Springer! I just wish I knew when I'd get them.

Has anyone gotten a shipping notice on Fort Max? I paid for mine on Monday morning but no shipping notification yet and still says "unshipped" under my account. Trying to be patient as I know they must be crazy busy. Just want to know my Fort Max's are on their way! :-(
