If you read the preceding sentence , I think the implied idea pretty well understood (at least one other person understood it). If English is not your first language, I apologize as my sentence structure may not be as specific as needed sometimes.

It looks nice.
The chest feels a bit wide and it's more blocky than I imagined,but its still cool.
If they gave him accessories to recreate part I and II,I hope they do the same for part III.

The use of the Sideswipe mold reminds me that would nice to have a remold/repaint to homage Armada Wheeljack.
Day 184 of waiting for Transformers Armada Masterpiece news.

Some people made their own Armada Wheeljack out of that mold in the customization class at last year's RoboCon. The class was to make it SG Sideswipe, but some chose to make Armada Wheeljack instead.

It really isn't.

The preceding sentence, "I was going to try for this just because of serendipitous circumstances," says jack all about the ordering process. Ditto for the sentences that precede that; those are about you passing on Ectotron. And the only other sentence is about you probably passing on the Top Gun TF - once again, no mention of the ordering process. The only things you explicitly comment on are the figures. So what exactly was supposed to imply that "they are becoming more complicated" refers to the ordering process?

English very much is my first language; I'm assuming it's yours as well, based on you bringing this up. Your sentence structure in that first post wast fine... but this post could use work. One thing in particular stands out: "I think the implied idea pretty well understood"

Nice!

The Walmart availability makes me wonder if this all came out of that series of commercials where a bunch of notable cars picked up orders at Walmart, including Bumblebee, Ecto-1 and the DeLorean, although there was no F-14 But it probably did connect a bunch of brand managers.

I love that they went the extra mile as far as accessories go. I only hope that he has some kind of gravity gun that makes things heavy.

GREAT SCOTT! that's a fantastic idea!

I just had the biggest Nerdgasm.

Come into thread to comment ... see Zelda is once again being pedantic ... I'll come back later when things are a little less picky.

That robot mode is a little iffy to me. If they'd done a better job on the chest, I would have liked it better.

I refresh the page to see the figure is already out of stock.

>_<

Edit: Although it could just be placeholder until it's ready.

The link is working now, but showing as out of stock. The price is revealed at $29.99.

Totally called it on both the price, and the fact that it would go live already out of stock

I signed up for the "get in stock alert" and immediately got an email saying it was in stock, but refreshing showed it was still out of stock

Then, what exactly do you think he meant by the words "try for"?

And now it is back to error page not found

Wow, same.

I actually got a "Your item is now in stock" alert but when I clicked the link it was the "Sorry" error page. I guess Walmart is bad at this.

Is that really all that surprising, though?

I am hoping I get lucky tomorrow lol

Aren't we all?

There are some listing on ebay! Some Butthead is asking for the simple price of only $1,985.

Guess I will have to wait til the wider release then....

He looks similar to that G2 watch Autobot. Here's hoping IDW pays homage to this classic Transformer:

Is that the same one that was retconned into being a form of Vector Prime? If so, I wonder if there is a Vector Prime connection to "Gigawatt," given the obvious time travel theme.
