Looks like after a long hiatus of releasing nothing, It appears BTS might be back.

Wonder what BTS's return means for the long over due BTS-06 Nova Over Lord. Is the toy still coming or has it been cancelled.

I saw that dragonfly thing a long time ago. I have a feeling this is just another pre-order left up because the particular retailer has faith in them. Could this dragonfly see the light of day ? Who knows ? Does this mean Nova Lord will get produced ? Probably not. The number of pre-orders made often dictate if a figure ever gets produced. Nova Lord didn't do so well. It was the right size, but the wrong character. If BTS would have announced a 2 foot tall Trypticon or Scorponok, they would have gotten a ton of pre-orders and moved forward with production.

Didn't realize you saw into the future.

no import site shared any pre-orders data with you.

You kept saying it was the wrong size.

To who? you? You have no idea of OverLord's popularity within this fandom. He has a huge Masterforce, TFCC and IDW fans following.

Yeah i'm sure their are Hundreds-thousands of fans who have $800 to $1,000 to spend on a Two foot tall 3rd party city-former.

Honestly, I never even heard of Overlord until you showed up. I'm among the group of fans who have never watched the Japanese G1 cartoons because I hate subtitles.

It's not rocket science. When nobody shows interest, a figure gets cancelled. You don't need data to figure that out, it's called common sense.

I cant remember exactly what I said, but I believe it was that Overlord was a base, not a city. If a 2 foot tall BTS Nova Lord only cost $250, what makes you think a 2 foot tall BTS Trypticon would cost $800-1000 ?

Honestly, I believe you would drop $800 on an Overlord. If Nova Lord got cancelled, I could see you spending 2 months pay to buy the grey prototype from BTS and get it custom painted.

While you might enjoy discussing the same things over and over, I do not.

Back to ignoring you.

So it looks like BTS isn't dead. Although this product isn't for me.
