MakeToys Yellow Giant Available for Domestic Pre-Order at TFsource and BBTS

I love how Mixmaster seems to have a targetting visor for his over-the-head missiles.

I'm surprised at the price, that's kinda decent compared to Hercules.

Yeah, and the price cranks down their individual value to what we've allowed in scouts before. I loved the Trailer and hope Maketoys comes through on this.

Ordered. I'll be broke for the next couple months, but that's ok.

Not gonna see anything in my Pile of Loot for a while, though.

Cool. I'm in the mindset to snag the yellow and not the green versions only because I have TFC Hercules still in the works and I'd like to have that tiny bit of color variety in my insanely expensive 3rd party Dev's. I'm sure I'll want the greens when available, but I'm happy to settle on yellow.

I'm going to wait patiently for the jolly green Giant, but it's nice to know these won't be a pain to order.

At about $60 per fig, these are pretty reasonable. That's less than Warbot and the same price as Sonicron. (and they HAVE to be better quality than Sonicron!!)

I gotta wonder if the green set will be cheaper, though. Since the yellow has those extra accessories. Although, knowing online stores, it'll be more pricey since it's more desired...

They're packaging TWO figures together for the low low price of 120 bucks?! So "Giant" is only gonna cost me 360 as opposed to 6-700$ w/shipping?! SOLD! SOLD!! SOLD!!! A THOUSAND TIMES SOOOOOOOLD!!!!!

And screw it, I'm getting the yellow version since everyone else wants to wait for the inevitable green one. I like the uniqueness of the C.A.T. type scheme they got going on, and besides they remind me of Tonka trucks...only they transform!

I've had Bulldozer and Excavator (the names need work.....) since Saturday and they are fantastic - thank you Kapow - and I'll be getting the next two sets from them but the BBTS price is a lot more reasonable than I was expecting and if shipping didn't kill it for me I'd use them. Glad they have it up because now Giant will get enough support to make it to the all important Green.......we hope.

If you want a more G1 aesthetic (with a G2 Color I know I know!!) than Herc these molds are the ones to choose.

Just wish there wasn't so much 3RD Party goodness coming all at once - what with IGear Not-Ironhide/Ratchet, PE Arcee x2 and the re-issue Warbot to pick up it's a good job Hasbro doesn't want my money at present - I have none spare to give.

An email the staff got from BBTS says that the green one is on its way and will be announced "soon" so it's coming, but probably not until the yellow ones are out in the wild.

Just pre-ordered the bunch. Cannot wait to have an update to my G2 Devs!

I am not a fan of G2 but I am tempted with these colors.
