They haven't officially done any preorders yet. That's up for when they do get pricing on the figure. I say we will know in the next few days since the set is released now. I may just have to bite and buy from Sidecutter. I like them guys anyway and it might even be a few dollars cheaper then what BBTS/TFSource might sell them for.

According to the listing, it says this is their second offering from Maketoys. What was the first?? (And I don't think we can count Giant, seeing as it's nowhere near production.)

Their Powerglide & Seaspray are MT-01, this is MT-02 and Giant is MT-03 (with the first set MT-03A) meaning their not-Fallen will be MT-04.

Sorry, I meant to say Captured Prey. He's one of the guys at Captured Prey. Met him at Botcon 2010. He's also a member here on Seibs.

Kinda threw me off that Captured Prey got the Pre order before anyone else. Also noticed RK is sold out! is this going to be a limited run?

Yes, the first run is limited and includes a special sword (Drift style) and a golden thingamabob declaring it as the limited gold run, all other versions after that will miss the sword and the thingamabob.

I hate that. :-x

As for the negotiation thing, I actually wish Maketoys would offer it direct, then we wouldn't have to deal with the Big Bad Markup. :lol:

Chalk up another vote for Captured Prey being really cool guys. I ordered all my Kabaya kits from them. Furthermore, when I made a mistake ordering one (I clicked the wrong link), they shipped me the right one at no extra charge! :shock:

The only reason I don't order all my stuff from them is that they take payment for preorders up-front and I usually can't do that for expensive items.
