I wouldnt be suprised if MakeToys launch this as an exclusive via their own online shop rather than the usual supects (BBTS, TFSource etc), perhaps thats why we havent seen a pre-order up yet.Va'al wrote:Niiiiice. Preorders? Anyone? Hm?

That's what they said they would do, no secret or speculation about it. Still-- where is?

Kind of makes sense if this is based off the Battle Tanker. Still, the size comparison is pretty jarring.

I don't like MMC's version. I find it just too big for a Classics collection. I think it'll scale well for an MP shelf, but not for Classics.
MakeToys it shall be.

Yea, it's the one that was created way back as a clear resin kit, by the same guys who made the Drift kit. They wanted to make a few as a super limited release but then just disapered. Someone has acquired the original file for the 3D model and is working on releasing it on a mass scale.

It's neat. I want it. Unfortunately, it isn't part of my 'must-haves' and money is too tight to justify it. Makes me a sad collector.

They're not giving us much time to budget. I don't know if I can pull this off right now.
Meanwhile, where the hell is Chaos?
I wish Maketoys would've done the clear orange plastic for Chaos' highlights.

too much of a pain in the aft to order it from sounds of things. I really like my Battle Tanker but I can miss out on this in the hopes that a better one comes along at some point.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

I used a combination of Google translate and clicking on the obvious buttons to muddle my way through. It seems that I could only select Japanese states though (and it's a required field?). I don't know, I'm optimistic though.

Maybe they're trying a MMC Planet Steel Express type thing. Direct sales that are presumably more profitable.
