Slog's been available in NY for at least the last 6 weeks.

the business model looks like this back in 1984 Takara had the seeds of an idea about a series of transforming alien robots Hasbro said that's cool let's help you nurture it they took the rights or borrow them at least spread them out to their larger markets and help those seeds grow into what it is todayas far as territories themselves take car and and most Japanese companies tend to remain within their own borders just like there are a lot of restaurants and stores that you only find in certain parts of the country In and Out burger comes to mind you don't see those in IndianaHasbro however being a separate company and a larger companyis able to distribute into its different little feelers I would imagine there is some kind of non complete clausebut they are basically just a tenant farmer for a little idea that akara had
no Vietnam will not have the Takara stuff your best bet is to order it either from BBTS robot Kingdom I think TFsource usually has the best prices but I don't knoif they are carrying I ordered mine from b b t s does corn looks like used just a got enough gray to fit in with the st cc that that's my only really real complainis that I don't have a good score in to go with everybody else. and please pardon the bad grammar I'm using the voice type to write this
Good to know there is a reason behind the bad grammer and lack of ponctuation, but man, that is really hard to read. If you can, when you get home or close to a laptop, could you edit the post and add some periods. Because what you wrote really interests me but is also quite hard to understand.
I gotcha

I've seen Slog and Drift, the latter I want but will pass on and the former I'm ordering the Amazon version for. No sign of Snarl, but I have the SDCC version so I's happy camper

At this point I am just waiting on wave 3...
Based on stores around me they have a about a 2-3 week delay in most cases. I did see the re-release of Waspinator, and that wave recently. And they are probably about to receive or have received a good bit of this wave 3 and have no room for them...
I do have pretty much all I want from the AOE line... This last wave has nothing really interesting other than Snarl if you didn't get the Takara Version (I did.. I couldn't wait any more...) Hot shot is not really all that "neat" as Hot shot seems to be a miss labeling / lose of the proper name! erhem Tracks... Ugh! Bumblebee was already released as a double pack at TRU... Though I hope it has some slight re-paint to it for this wave...

Well...I'm glad I bought the One-Step Stinger, now. That has zero attractability in my book. I'm sure plenty will love it and that's fine, it's just not enough for me.
I'm incredibly disappointed by this. I'll bet we'll get one in one of the future movie lines. Still...

It's great this actually exists in some fashion now, but the mold's shell-former-ness made me think they'd reshell Stinger as a proper Pagani. It just feels like we've waited all these months for something half-assed (and for many, limited to being an expensive import).

Movie lines are the primary part of my collection, with a bit of CHUG and a heavy dose of 3rd party thrown in. (Probably more 3rd party than CHUG...although I should probably do a count.) As for BKG? Thanks, but no thanks. I'm fine with the copper colored mass release one.
Now, the redeco/remold of Optimus that's coming? Oh yeah, that one's preordered.

Wow... hasbro didn't mess up for once... instead takara did. While the paint looks very detailed I was expecting the retool too... oh well... at leaSt the robot mode is accurate

I don't see what people are disappointed about. This is exactly what I thought a deluxe Stinger figure would be.

People were expecting a re-shelled retool rather than a straight redeco.
But the thing is, guys, though Hasbro didn't state this publicly at the panel, it was stated at the Hasbro booth at BotCon 2014 that there were indeed plans to remold Bumblebee into Stinger as a full blown Pagani, but the figure never made it all the way through the production process and was dropped. Thus, no remolded mold for Stinger exists, leaving it to fall to Takara to give us a straight redeco.

Well I think this is right, just a pre movie concept as the plot says: "based on Bumblebee, but improved in every aspect... Stinger" therefore is an attempt before taking the pagani shape, besides Stinger has many forms in the movie so this should be just one of those.

No, there's only one Stinger in the movie's final battle. Those multiple red bots you see are Traxes.
