| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713597) Posted by Craven Knight on June 2nd, 2008 @ 4:26am CDT I have the Hasbro versions preordered, I'll wait to see pictures of these to decide if they are worth getting instead. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713640) Posted by Zeds on June 2nd, 2008 @ 7:09am CDT Anyone want to take bets on what parts on them will be chromed? | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713701) Posted by Nekoman on June 2nd, 2008 @ 8:33am CDT
Chrome arms for Sunstreaker and chrome shoulder cannons for Prowl. That’d be my guess. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713702) Posted by NuclearConvoy on June 2nd, 2008 @ 8:34am CDT Looking forward to photos so I can decide what to preorder. Cost vs. Chrome, lol. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713747) Posted by olokin on June 2nd, 2008 @ 9:21am CDT I have not seen any trace of the new Classics, I may just get the Henkei versions instead from an online toy store. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713773) Posted by bcm77 on June 2nd, 2008 @ 10:04am CDT
I'd like to see Sunstreaker's engines chromed,maybe Prowl's missiles too. The other thing Universe Prowl is lacking is the police badges on his shoulders so if the Henkei version had those I'd be more likely to get it. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713823) Posted by First Gen on June 2nd, 2008 @ 10:42am CDT
Confirmed that there would be two more Henkei figures? Yes. Prowl and Streaker? No. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713858) Posted by Sledge on June 2nd, 2008 @ 11:19am CDT Haven't FanToFan had a preorder for Henkei Sunstreaker up for a while now? | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713868) Posted by tigertracks 24 on June 2nd, 2008 @ 11:27am CDT
And you shouldn't until August. That's when the new UNIVERSE toys (not CLASSICS) are scheduled to make their first appearance. The Henkei versions are following in October I believe | |

Yes it is news. So please drop whatever issue you have with it now. Thanks. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713934) Posted by City Commander on June 2nd, 2008 @ 12:32pm CDT
I like you. You make me smile | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (713984) Posted by tigertracks 24 on June 2nd, 2008 @ 1:18pm CDT
Besides, they are site sponsors, so they deserve press when we can give it to them. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714040) Posted by Kalon on June 2nd, 2008 @ 2:15pm CDT
Thats not a real reason. This news is clearly old. Since they are site sponsors... aren't their ads up all the time? food for thought | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714048) Posted by Nekoman on June 2nd, 2008 @ 2:21pm CDT
HEY GUYS, WHO’S UP FOR WHINING ABOUT HOW AWFUL THE NEWS CREW IS! CB already said knock it off, and yes that’s a perfect reason. Why do you think we keep up with their new items? | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714057) Posted by tigertracks 24 on June 2nd, 2008 @ 2:28pm CDT
Not really anything to think about. They along with our other sponsors pay the bills. AS Cyber Bishop said, it needs to be dropped. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714067) Posted by Autobot Jazz on June 2nd, 2008 @ 2:40pm CDT Goinging to wait to see colored versions before judgement is passed. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714074) Posted by Cascadia on June 2nd, 2008 @ 2:47pm CDT I would have to see a colored picture to see if there is any difference between the Henkei and Hasbro versions. If there is no difference, I will stick with my Hasbro version, otherwise, I might change my BBTS preorder from Hasbro version to the Henkei version. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714179) Posted by Kalon on June 2nd, 2008 @ 4:59pm CDT
Paying bills and repeating old news are two different things! If this was about Big Bad Toystore was announcing the PREORDER I could see a point to this being actual news. This wasn't confirmed today it was confirmed months ago... | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714185) Posted by First Gen on June 2nd, 2008 @ 5:06pm CDT
You want news out of this story, ok. How about this? BBTS.com shows these preorders being available in September 2008. Original reports or the preorder itself were posted as October 2008. So add AVAILABLE IN SEPTEMBER and there you go. NEW news. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714189) Posted by Kalon on June 2nd, 2008 @ 5:09pm CDT
See that is NEWS! Can you change the headline to reflect this actual news story? | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714204) Posted by First Gen on June 2nd, 2008 @ 5:23pm CDT
No, only the original poster can. Stormrider lives in Japan and is on a different time schedule. He'll change it tonight sometime, I'll let him know. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714525) Posted by UltraPrimal on June 2nd, 2008 @ 10:18pm CDT
I bet Sunstreakers head will be blue. | |
| Re: BBTS Confirms Henkei Sunstreaker & Prowl PreOrders (714562) Posted by Stormrider on June 2nd, 2008 @ 11:00pm CDT Boy you guys are a tougher crowd than when Michael Richards dropped the N-bomb. In all fairness I do appreciate the heads up with the previous news. And I do appreciate the helpful and "pleasant" comments. In light of the various comments and questions - Yes, Ages3&Up did have Sunstreaker & Prowl next to their listings for C-07 & C-08. That was an oversight. However, since there were blank names next to BBTS's listings for over a month it creates uncertainity among buyers. This news should act as a reminder and to help confirm previous claims. If you already knew this and felt confident with your preorders then you are a savvy bold Transformers fan! And gold stars will be given out later. A couple things to keep in mind: BBTS is one of our site sponsor, so we do cover new information on their site as soon as it is made available. Yes, the release dates are different than described in previous stories. No confirmation can be given at this time. Yes, I have updated the story to reflect the changes. Though the title will remain as a confirmation (see the reason why above). If you have any questions or suggestions please send me a PM. For those of you who were understanding through this mix up - I appreciate your gentlemenly behavior. Tar and featherers will need to take a number and schedule an appointment with my secretary. | |
