I am really tempted to order Hench, less so with UFO, but the sooner I can get Cogz the better! Gears is seriously the only Ark crew member I don't have a Classics figure for!
who's your trailbreaker?
Also when are these shipping? can't wait any longer....

Back in '07 or so I repainted the blue Crankcase version of the Cybertron Red Alert mold and it fits perfectly. I've had people think it was an actual Classics Trailbreaker they had somehow missed! The altmode, visor, tool hand, shoulder guns, all of it just screams Trailbreaker so much that Hasbro had to have notice and passed on the idea.
Here a very old pic:

I wonder what happened to iGear. For a time it seemed like they were picking up speed, but it's been delay after delay with them.

The mini warriors have been delayed due to the issues that they had with the PP05s.

iGear removed the release date on these and just listed them as preorder. That's them saying "hell, we don't know when we can get them out."

I don't know why iGear even bothers posting release dates. They haven't hit one yet! At this point, preorders are more like becoming a tiny investor in the company and they'll trade back you later with a figure maybe.

Wow, perplexing. We've seen final figures and also packaging. What is the delay?
Only thing I can think off is a last minute change perhaps? Fix that Cosmos head maybe?

Why did I ever think preordering was a great idea?

My thought is quality control/production.

The end is in sight! A couple people at TFW who ordered from iGear got their shipping notices today. Can't be long now.

-sits in the corner and waits for all the "I hate iGear" to change to the "I love iGear" when the products are actually released-
Patience is a virtue. They may be late but every preoorder they put in their store has been delivered upon release.

LOL iGear should re-work that as their slogan. I'm glad that these guys may finally be on the way. I'm kind of hoping that they have made Cosmos a different shade of green in the meantime. Can't wait to see these guys in hand.

Got the same e-mail this morning - pleasant surprise as I'd been focused on other releases and stopped checking i-Gear's site everyday for an update. Now I've got about a 2 week wait to have these in hand.
