On iGear shop they still say that both Ironhide and Ratchet will be available in ten days.
However we still havent'seen a colored prototype, so I doubt it. Does anybody knows the actual release date?

...okay, it seems like the release date has been moved to mid-April :evil:

iGear's store still showing 4/15/12 release date, but no updated pix, no color versions shown. I'm not liking this trend. Even the new mini warriors have color prototype pix up, and they aren't due for another 3 months.

Anyone have the inside scoop?

A guy on TFW says Igear has written to him on Facebook stating that the factory is working at a speedy rate and both PP05 will be released in April. He included to his post a snapshot of Igear's message. They really suck as far as communication is concerned. Lots of people paid for the preorder one year ago, therefore if they are positive about an April release they should make a general statement. A pic of a colored prototype would help too :roll:

Ah, thanks for that. IIRC, this is about the same lag between my preorder for the Coneheads vs. actual release dates, which were pushed back at least once. Again, it's just bothersome that they haven't even provided color prototypes yet this late in the game. And you're right, would be good customer service to announce any expected delays... I've already paid my money for both.
