Can the figure transform with the garage kit head attached?

OK

Yes it can.

Hey guys. As written on the website, I am not taking orders for the kit yet. I will make an announcement tomorrow on the webpage when the first 50 kits will be fore sale from my website.

I will also try to bring some kits to botcon to sell. More details on that next week probably.

Yup, it does. And the visor still lights up.

wonderful work on this guys! I will certainly be trying to get this!

I have less than 50 kits available right now through Renderform.com. The next batch will be up sometime after botcon is over.

Ordered, thanks a bunch dude I'm really looking forward to the new head.

Placed an order for my very first Renderform kit!

Doh! I didn't know it was today they'd go up.

Theres still plenty left in this first batch. At the rate their going, there should be enough to leave ordering open until Saturday.

I just sent my request, hopefully I'll be able to make it

Great! I just put my order in, and actually... I did it twice, I think may have put my e-mail address in wrong the first time, so I did it again. Sorry for the double order

Or until a news mod puts up a notice on the front page

Seibertron.com member Venksta's garage kit company Renderform is now accepting orders for the first batch of RF-005 – Nebulous Tempest Upgrade Kits. The set is designed to give Universe Darkwind his own unique look rather than just being a straight repaint of Universe Silverbolt.

Before ordering, please be sure to fully read Venksta's disclaimers about a known QC issue.

You rang?

I love it. Damn it looks nice. Brings me back to the late eighties when I was gettin too old for toys and I bought some anyway.

Though I will say I like the original face too. The way it's painted actually made him look different than Silverbolt. Still right now I'm holding out until I get my FP fix done.

I placed a order on thw web site at around today at around 11:54 pm on 05/26/2011.

This is my first time placing a order. when does my email arrive telling me to send a paypal payment of $35?

I really want this kit as the head & guns look awesome.

Place my order a couple of hours ago or so. I've since received the invoice and have paid for the order. Thanks for the swift service, Venksta!

Yea, my id is the same as my paypal/email, and my order number is 0289.

thanks,I also placed a order orders ago & received a invoice in my email a few minutes ago. I paid for the order.

Thanks.

Out of the loop again! I'm working a RIDICULOUS job right now! If there is to be another btch after Botcon, is there anyway to "pre-order"? I absolutely love this set! I would much rather give my money to Renderform itself, as opposed to someone on Ebay. This is a great set, please keep us posted on another release! PLEASE!

Wow,I checked yesterday evening and this wasn't here, I woke up to check the page this morning first thing to finally find this in the news and come to find out it sold out already.

That's faster than botcon exclusives or even the Hasbro toy shop exclusives. And by exclusives I mean anything labeled generations in their store.

Its too bad... i wanted one.

wish this could have become news before they sold out.

peace.

It says orders stopped !!! I thought he was opening orders up at 630 PST which means 930 EST ??? What happened ??? He changed the time to 630 AM

Why did he not specify "AM" on his site ??? He forgot that not all people use military time in their daily lives. Try telling a hot chick to meet you at the bar at 1830 and see how far you get.

I hope he takes pre-orders for the next batch. I cant be the only guy who misunderstood the timing.

When I posted this to the front page there were still sets available, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered.

This was the first batch, and only 50 were available. The total run is 350 according to the website. So there should be more available at some point, you just need to keep an eye on the Renderform website, as I'm not sure if we will news subsequent releases.

I feel you, I wasn't even aware of a schedule, I just happened to have some pc access today and missed it. This set would is must for myself. I love head and weapon upgrades!

Notification went up like normal last nite at 9:38 est which is 6:38 pst. So if anything, he was off by 8 minutes. I got my order in as soon as I saw he posted it on facebook.

Nice set. but it makes me wonder, what about Universe 'Powerglide' and 'Storm Cloud?' They have the same head, I look forward to one or both of those getting an upgrade set!

Hey guys. First off, I apologize for my error on the date. It was always meant to be Thursday, May 26th, when the first batch would go up for order. I didn't notice I put 27th down on my website. If you read the previous posts on my website, I made an update on Wednesday, giving a reminder that the first batch would go for sale "tomorrow", which was the 26th. And as I stated, the order page it self went live at 6:30pm PST. I took a couple extra minutes after to fix some wordings in the order page, before posting a new entry in the front page to alert people to the order page going up. There were people who were already trying and successfully placed orders by 6:31 pm PST.

After the fast selling out of the RF-004 kits, I did my best not to repeat that mistake and give people plenty of time to have chances for RF-005. Even though this first chance didn't go too well for some of you, I will still have at least 2 more batches available later on my website for this kit. Plus, I'll have a special version for sale at BotCon. If you want a RF-005 kit, please keep track of the updates on my website. Or better yet, the Renderform facebook page. The next batch will have a one week notice, with a different time and day of the week.

For those who have messaged me, and asked to place an order directly. I will ask that you wait for the next batch. Otherwise, I have to permanently open orders for the rest of the remaining kits. I feel a lot of people would not like that either.
