Well, Overrun and Drift have both sold out, in less than 36 hours. Any chance we'll see a 2nd release for Overrun? I did not manage to pre-order one and i would want to get my hands on one. :-(

I think the only figure with a 2nd release is CPC, and I say Over-run qualifies for a 2nd release too, being a G1 cast character.

Any ideas on how to contact TFCC? I cannot find the email function on their site, unless they meant the feedback area, which i have already contacted them through.

Anyone with me? :lol:

You can always try their Facebook or Twitter.

I would not count on it though. Anything that goes on sale years later is leftover stock. CPC is an exception due to demand, and Over-Run Runabout has been already been produced in larger numbers than usual.

I only learned about an hour ago that Runamuck was sold out, and as a result I'm not renewing my membership. It's not some ideological thing or like some stand taken against the numbers produced, but I just have no interest in having one with out the other. I suppose if they did a second run of the figures I'd try snagging one, but if not, I'll live without them.

Am pissed, though. Been gone from the club a few years and was looking at figures they still had stock of that I missed, like Dion, thinking "When I order these Battlechargers, I'm going to order this and that, too." Oh well.

They might be doing what they did with Botcon 2011 figures, which is that they held a certain percentage of figures aside in case the figures anyone got were faulty, and then they sold those safety net figures a while later through the club store.

I'm sure people bought the **** outta these things to scalp based on how fast these figs have sold out the past couple years. Let the initial wave of panic run its course and I bet you can land one of these near original price a few months down the road or so... Currently you can buy last year's Ramjet between $50-75. It basically cost like $68 or so shipped so some people are actually taking a loss unloading them. Runabout will probably have more demand being G1 and a part of a set, but like I said, I bet so many were bought with the intent to sell that supply will probably outweigh demand...at least at a point for a little while.
