So, someone other than Hasbro has them now. Does this mean they should be at retail any time now?

I was just about to post this myself, but saw you had beat me to it. A friend on another board gave me the heads up. I went ahead and ordered a set, the price really wasn't bad at all. I popped for the next day shipping since I'm pretty pumped for this line and the game. Also I was just kind of curious if they can actually manage to get them to me by tomorrow. Curse my impatience!

Hey, I may have beat you to posting this, but you'll beat me to receiving them as I went with the free shipping as there was a couple other things on there I wanted. I figured I could get them fast, and who knows, the chance could be that they show up in stores before I receive my Optimus, but at least I don't have to go hunting right away because I'll at least have the one I've been anticipating most.

And while you bit the bullet on getting next day shipping, you'll put my mind at ease tomorrow if you post that you receive them and they weren't something else mislabeled, so for that, thanks. :grin:

Order shipped earlier this evening so I'll most likely be getting something tomorrow, hopefully what I actually ordered. I'll let you know the results.

Cool, thanks El Duque. I hope you are liberating them from their plastic prisons soon!

I got my shipment confirmation this morning which probably means I'll get it Monday? Which isn't bad at all.

They just arrived, the packing job was a little sketchy, but outside of BB's bubble being a little dented everything looks good.

My tracking number says that it is out for delivery, so I should have Optimus shortly!

Finally got my Optimus in hand today.

I had the day off yesterday, and was home taking care of stuff/waiting for Optimus to show up so I could go out, and come late afternoon, nothing showed up, I rechecked the tracking number and it said they attempted delivery at 10am, and left a notice slip, which they didn't because I was in my living room where I would've seen a mail carrier and there was no slip anywhere, so I had to go to the post office this morning and stand in line and pick it up after I called to make sure it was there. When I finally get my package they tell me that today was actually supposed to be the first attempt at delivery. So basically, because of faulty information I actually had to waste gas and time to pick up mail that never even reached my home.

Ridiculous, to be sure but hey, the things I do (and will continue to do) for toys.
