I'll be patient and wait for TFSource to get theirs up. Nothing against BBTS, I just had a really good experience with TFSource.

This figure looks nice, but any word of any masterpieces?

This isn't really the thread to discuss that, but what we know is that Hasbro is releasing Sideswipe and Bluestreak via Toys "R" Us. No word of what Takara's got cooking after Wheeljack, Bumblebee, Ultra Magnus, and Star Saber.

The transformation looks so simple for a leader class.

Hey guys? Why not just walk into a store and pick one up? That's kinda how I've been doing it for the past 18 years. Just sayin'.

I just got my email back from TRU after I put them on blast the other day...

Apparently all the cancelations were due to some internal processing error, so they advised me to redo my order for Jetfire. I just finished submitting it, so let's see what happens.

My biggest concern was I didn't want to be changed for the small purchase I tacked on for free shipping

They assured me that they wont charge me, which led me to believe if I hadn't said anything they would have charged shipping for it :roll:

Of course, if I find it in the store before it ships I will cancel it. :grin:

Certainly an option, but usually you get it sooner with a preorder and don't have to make a bunch of wasted trips to the store hunting for it. So you get it sooner for the same price and no wasted time and gas searching it out...but if you're the patient type, waiting to come across it in store works too.

Wow, that looks amazing- much better than the Hasbro stock photos showed.

He looks very gundam like, or like something from Zone of the Enders. Its pretty cool. However, the shot of his undercarriage is a bit unfortunate. I would have preferred if we saw less bot kibble. But not everyone can be masterpiece starsream or HFTD leader starscraem

Wouldn't be the first time.

Looks great!

I have a feeling there will be some nice third party/reprolabels for this guy too since he has a nice clean design to him as base to start from.

I'm guessing leader Megatron won't be mp 10 sized then....

This is the first TF I've ever actually pre-ordered. I've always loved Jetfire and do NOT want to rely on shoddy local distribution and risk missing out. Of course, this now probably means I'll wind up seeing these all over the place, cheaper than what I'm going to pay, but oh well. Price I paid really didn't seem too bad for a Leader, 'course that's before shipping. But hey, no sales tax, so suck it gov't! Hehheh...

Kind of misleading as this is for a third party seller on Amazon, not Amazon directly. (Hence the insane price increase)...

News Credits: 12 · by **GuyIncognito** » Tue Jul 22, 2014 9:25 am

This is kind of a scalping situation. I wouldn't post any links to Amazon listings unless it's shipping from Amazon at MSRP or less (or it's a listing on Amazon from a reputable retailer like TRU or BBTS).

News Credits: 6188 · by **Va'al** » Tue Jul 22, 2014 9:29 am

That's true, actually, I had not noticed who the seller was.

I'll remove this from the front page for now.
