just like to share the wealth sincemany of you do not have him.
and the orange tip it comes with is easy to use.
better than ebay prices

Well, I did it. I ordered him. I pray I have the money by then. Can't pass it up for that price though.

and when you pop the orange plug off, no one will be the wiser.

It looks like its designed to come out. Whatever works right? Too bad MISB is outta the question but thats fine with me, I'll display him with my cheap 20th DVD Prime that I got for 50 bucks off ebay, lol.

Thanks for the info.

Thanks dj, you are my hero. I just preordered mine as well.

yea,the plug has some glue on it,but i simply pried it off with a small pair of needlenose pliers.
just some twisting and right out, barely left any residue, but i used a qtip of goo-b-gone just cuz i'm anal.
but unless you stick your pinky or willy down in the barell, you will never tell.
thanks aq!

If you dare go to ebay:

You may find one cheaper, but I just had a quik look and that seems to bee a prity good price.[/url]

E-Bay will probably be more expensive and I don't think any of the other toy sites re-opened any of their pre-orders.

but there is a strong possibility they are fake, right?

i think i would rather go with a secure website, especially for such an expensive investment. thanks for the answers!

it's a pre-order, you don't pay till it ships at bbts.com

If you want an unmodded one, Agesthreeandup.com has some for pre-order aswell. I got my first one from there and they have flat rate shipping.

They used to charge for preorders right away, but now they don't charge till they are shipping.

i've heard of that website.. are they reliable? shipping reasonable? any bad stories?
ah, this should probably be stuck in another thread but i asked it here.

They are a smaller store that is growing quickly. With the first batch of Megs, they actually drove all the US orders across the border to prevent problems with customs. Because of this, the sipping took a bit longer, but everyone who ordered one received their unmoded Meg. I have herd horror stories of other stores having their shipments sent back if they were unmodded, or people getting their packages opened and half transformed because of customs. I though it was very cool of them to go so far out of their way like that.

Their shiping is flat rate for canada and the US and goes by weight for international orders.

I have had no problems with them, and they pack their orders nicely. I was just happy to get my Meg unmodded.

well now that i know that i wont be charged until the item ships (ive never pre-ordered anything before). I just Preordered myself an Mp-05 Megatron! WOOHOO! GO ME! lol im excited

Well it was actually about 140 for both, I bought one for 80 (that included shipping) the seller messed up and sent me two, I then payed him an extra 40, plus I had to pay a bit at customs which brings it all together to about 140$!

So yea my buy was sooooooooo much cheaper!

About how long would you say shipping would take from there to the Eastern US? If you had to guess.

On their site it sais they ship out once a week, on tuesdays, so depending on when you ordered, it could take a few days to just over a week. When they werent expecting such an overwhelming responce to the MP-05, they were shipped out by who ordered them first. I believe they shipped out car loads almost everyday for about 2 weeks once they received their shippment. I am sure they will be more efficient the second time round.

So to answer your question, it depends on what you order and when. If you wanted to order a Clear KO Mirage and some WST Dinobots tonight, then it shoud be yours in about a week. If you want an unmoddified MP-05, then put your name down early and that shouldnt take much longer once they get them in.

Thank you for the info. I navigated the site and I just couldn't find it. I must've missed it. O_o

Lol! Don't worry, it is easy to miss. They dont have a Masterpiece section because they sell out so quickly. The MP-05 is under their preorders. Here is the link if you want.
