I am willing to bet that Hyper Novae will eventually see a wider distribution (though likely a different color).

$180... ouch.

As cool as he looks, I'm no fan of Battle Tanker. And at that price, it's an easy pass.

I dunno about you guys, but I'm loving the number of options we're getting for some of these characters.

They do now, as long as you do their Stack thing.

From the Stack FAQ:

TFSource seem to have contradictions in the policy. This is from their FAQ:

"Q: What is TFsource’s Order Cancelation Policy?
For instock orders TFsource may allow a cancelation of an order if it has not yet been processed, once it's been processed it cannot be canceled. In the case of a preorder, TFsource does not allow cancelations of preorder merchandise. However we do realize at times customers may be unable to pay for preorder merchandise, and we can work with the customer on payment plans or in certain cases a cancelation. TFsource reserves the right to refuse future transactions with any customer that cancels multiple orders or large amounts of merchandise. You can read more about preorders at TFsource Preorder Policies."

Depending on your location, Maketoys' store has it for $160 + shipping. TFS has it for $180 with free shipping in the US... So, it all depends. Maketoys only accepts Visa and Mastercard. TFS accepts both as well as Paypal. So, it depends on who's buying. :grin:

Right. However, you CAN cancel pre-orders on the Stack, because they're not paid for yet.

Essentially, their cancellation policies are dependent purely upon if they're issuing a refund or not.

Yeah,. this appears to be MakeToys MO. Ship out an early shipment, then keep the rest of us waiting on the follow-up shipments. :evil:

HELP!

I bought this guy from the Make Toys online store about 3 weeks ago. He arrived damaged and since that day I've been trying to get any kind of response from Make Toys.

I've repeatedly used their online contact form but have never gotten a reply.(messages in english and google translated japanese)

I've attempted to obtain contact information from websites that now sell the toy, but they can not/will not release that information.

Can anyone please point me to a viable route to contact Make Toys to get a replacement part or at least get my money refunded?

Damn. This is why I try to avoid buying directly from 3rd party companies. I rather buy from dealers and pay an extra 10-20 bucks. I was nervous ordering from Fansprojectcore and Igear. Rumor is Fansproject and Maketoys are very "close". Have you tried reaching out to Fansproject ?

The more I look at this figure the more I think a Cybertronian Big Convoy repaint/slight retool could work.

Get on that Maketoys, I don't think Perfect Effect is ever going to deliver on theirs (plus I'll totally buy both even if PE does get around to it cuz I can never have too many Big Convoys :P).
