I am so very sorry. I remember saying you'd get him there so I thought you had nabbed him. I myself did not check to know when he was available.

The button marked "reserve" will kinda give you a clue.
As for the policies, I have no idea.

Re-stock. All available. Just waiting for a "pay me now" email. Ordered a Roadblock too.

Since I'm so into helpng fellow members

Prices at par or slightly lower than hlj but amiami still beats them. Artbooks are strangely cheaper with them

Accepts PayPal

Policy.

Cancellations, maybe within the day of ordering, if not, you are stuck with the item.

Never had an issue with returns/or refunds so I can't say

Shipping. One negative with them is that they don't have SAL Parcel for the big stuff. It is immediately EMS. So shipping is a bit pricey with EMS

They also do sal unregistered

If you have accumulated points, can be used to discount the price of item.

Shop there only by desperation because their prices seem awefully expensive.

Also,

CATCH!

Too bad...

I also take into account the fact of the mandatory speedier shipping.

I'm still keeping that store in my bookmarks because we never know...

I'm content with the Hasbro versions.

News Credits: 293 · by **shajaki** » Wed Jun 17, 2015 8:23 pm

I'm going to sound very dumb here, but I didn't notice that Shrapnels visor was silver on the Hasbro version until I had it next to Takara's...

I guess you could say that makes Hasbro's toy-accurate.

[Samuel L. Jackson]Hold onto your butts![/Samuel L. Jackson] Courtesy of the Weibo userpage Transformers and Twipple User gadepon, we have a ton of new images of the upcoming TAV Optimus, Sideswipe AND Jazz. Not only that, but Optimus comes with a transforming trailer/battle station and a cache of weapons so he can hunt the Decepticons in style!

Optimus, Jazz and Sideswipe are scheduled for a July release, and all four can be preordered at your favorite retailer right now. After you're done preordering these guys, especially that awesome Optimus, check out our galleries of the Robots In Disguise toyline, which you can see right here.

Ooooooh boy! That Prime is really really neat. #-o

Wish the base mode was pictured. :-(

I'm glad I've waited patiently for Takara's versions of Sideswipe and Jazz. The extra paint apps on Jazz are most welcome, but Sideswipe stomps all over his Hasbro iteration so hard it isn't even funny. That Optimus Prime looks fantastic as well. I hope Takara dares to go a bit further making their own molds and gives us a nice Voyager sized Grimlock down the line (and no, the Hyperchage version won't do).

The robot legs turn into the trailer, like with the Warrior figure.

That's the base mode? :???:

Maybe it should be called being a cargo truck mode :lol:

Already preordered that Prime a while ago, and I'm really glad I did! Robot mode is out of scale, but it looks like the truck mode works great with the Warriors. I see a lot to like here.

Also might snag Sideswipe. I've warmed up to him more on the show and I need someone for my Strongarm to boss around. I'll grab the one with nice paint, as a colorblind dude who especially has trouble with reds, I'd rather not paint one myself.

Not a fan of Jazz, though. He seems a bit too blocky for my taste, and the extra paint unfortunately doesn't help quite enough.
