There was no delay, nor was there one last year. TFCC gets all their figures for the year in one big shipment, that coincides with BotCon for obvious reasons. You think it was a coincidence that they stared shipping Transmutate, Rampage, and TFSS 2.0 figures all at the same time? Nope. I would imagine shipping rates force them to get one big shipment. The so called delays are just bull **** cover stories. I don't know why they don't just own up to it.

Weapon: Saber Blade
Hydra is the one who wrote Fisitron's bio, and he filled it with some fun little references to other TF fiction.

IDW G1 references:
  • His real name is "Ironfist" while "Fisitron" is his infosphere alias.
  • He was recruited to join the Wreckers
  • Ultra Magnus is a lawman
  • Ultra Magnus has a connection to the Wreckers (also a reference to Marvel G1 and, well, this is Aligned Ultra Magnus here anyway)
Wings Universe G1 references:
  • He started out as a factory worker.
Energon references:
  • The Combination Spark (Japanese name of the Spark of Combination)

There's probably more in there to be found, as well.

So he should be part of the WFC/FOC game family, right? If anything FoC because the combination thing was discovered and done first in the second game... :-?

Yeah, he and Barricade and Frenzy hail from the same universe, according to TransTech Rhinox and Heinrad.

He's right: he's a straight repaint of FoC Roadbuster, a retool of FoC Swindle:

Only Chromedome, Rewind and Thrustinator got new heads.

Mine just showed up. No gun in the box. blah. Hopefully they can just mail me the gun without having to send the figure back.

Other than that, he's a very nice looking figure, definitely a nice piece to add to my collection.

My Fisitron just came today, but I haven't opened him yet.

But my TCC magazine issue #57 still hasn't come yet, though.

What Mooncake said. This is not Chromedome from the 1980s cartoons or the 1980s comics. This is Chromedome from the IDW G1 comics*, whose visor is yellow instead of blue. All previous looks at this figure depicted it with a blue visor, which detracted from the accuracy to its source material.


* -- Well, okay, technically not 100% exactly the IDW G1 version of Chromedome, what with his different body and all. So what the Club has done is created a separate universe that is heavily based on the IDW G1 comics continuity, and placed this Chromedome in that world, in which he is essentially the same person as IDW G1 Chromedome but exists as an alternate universe version of him with a different body and Stylor as his partner (Stylor isn't in the actual IDW G1 comics since IDW G1 Chromedome isn't a Headmaster).

But, it's just easier to say that he's based off the IDW G1 version of the character than it is to get into the specific universal details mentioned above. :-B
