I just received my SS86 Megatron from BBTS, and while I haven’t had a chance to fully open up the package and explore his transformation yet, I can say right off the bat that the lower leg color is nowhere near as blue as some of the initial photos have suggested. It is a much more muted, slightly blueish gray, which gave me a sigh of relief. I can’t wait to get him open later this evening and get him posed on the shelf.

I got a surprise email notice from Amazon today that Scavenger and Megatron are already out for delivery along with Alchemist Prime from AotP. Can't wait!

My Perceptor and cassettes should be here tomorrow. Still nothing about Megatron, although reading that some of you guys got the ready email from Pulse, gives me some hope. I didn't think Megs would be out for a couple more months so good news.

WTH, it feels like only last week I preordered Megs and people already getting it delivered! Maybe because I had to order through Pulse because Amazon sold out before I could get to him. Which means another month wait most likely. Meanwhile i did get a notice for Grimlock.

That's what happens when Hasbro drags so long revealing something that Takara Tomy shows it first. They really dropped the ball, but at least it seems like there'll be enough to go around. We should have seen him back at Toy Fair and pre-orders in April.

I missed out on both Scavenger and Mixmaster from both Hasbro and Amazon the 1st time, so I was happy to see Scavenger back in stock. Of course, the only one left missing had to be a leg. >:oP

In the future they should plan the limb releases better.
