MEEP! Yeah, it was just Saturday morning I think that Dion and Cop-Tur was in the box. Shouldn't be so surprised, since news of Dion, P/CP and SG Cyclonus had a tendency to be in the same post when it came. (Or at least that's how I remember it.)

A couple of hours? Maybe I'm thinking of something other than where you'd go to pick up if they leave a slip for something you've ordered and they couldn't just leave. For me that place would be maybe 30 min. away...

I live about 5 hours from their office and it seems like I get everything from the club extremely late..I got heatwave last year seems like a month after he started popping up here.. No emails yet either ..Sigh.......

Heh, last time I heard the news a figure was shipping out I got it a few days later *cough*Dion*cough*. Looking forward to getting my own Punch/Counterpunch.

Ok... as much as I loath doing this...

I am BEGGING someone to sell me an extra P/CP. I missed my chance and don't want to pay an outrageous inflation price.

Shattered Glass Cyclonus is shipping... whoopie... :-x

Well, we haven't seen any new pictures of this guy, or heard any particular news about the head.
All I can say is that I'm extremely nervous that we've been cheated on this.

P.S.
Does anyone else have a problem where Dion's forefeet don't have the stop in them to keep him from falling over that Hot Shot's feet had?

They really killed it when they revealed that the back of his head was not gonna have a flip cover to hide the other face. That was laim.

You seriously aren't paying attention.

I hope Takara releases it's own punch/counterpunch with a larger head and no purple on the knees, for everyone else to enjoy.

Rated X, aren't you the same guy who was complaining about this back on the thread that actually showed pictures?

Primus sake. Just look at the picture of it's side profile! It's obviously on a hinge.

The problem with the head, is the size and paintjob, not much else.

Take a good look and compare this pic to the front views of both sides of the head. I honestly dont believe this thing flips because the forehead doesnt seem to get any bigger and the antennas dont slfde back in either one of the front pictures. I think this "peg" just holds his dome on thats all. I could be wrong, but if this thing slides then why did they leave out a picture of it at an angle covering the other face ??? If more pictures have been released since this one, I havent seen them yet so please enlighten me...

Yes, but that is just based on theory/suspisions. It was in no way "confirmed" as you stated in your previous post.

Although, if the visor is stuck like that. I- I have no clue what I'd do.

I guess if it has that terrible paintjob we saw before, I'll sell it on ebay and send them a bad e-mail. But if anything was wrong with the visor, I feel I might have to make the ten hour drive and complain to them... Personally. :twisted:

That appears to be that it's on a hinge, for two reasons:

1) There's a metal pin in there. If it wasn't on a hinge, why would they put the metal pin in there?
2) Draw a straight line from the optics straight out and it'll run into the black helmet, on both sides.

It looks like a hinge, but there seems to be little to no room for movement based on the size of the helmet. Maybe it slides enough to cover the eyes, but I wouldnt be surprised if the mouth stays exposed...

Likewise, if anone can hook me up I would be eternally grateful.

I paid £60, about $100 USD to the club this year, my first year as a member and they screwed me over, but that's another topic.

I hope the board members that did manage to get hold of P/CP enjoy him and he fills a hole in your classic collection.

News Credits: 23 · by **Prime Evil** » Tue Jun 15, 2010 6:48 am

Yeah, they are due to come in on Thursday. Got my Dion last night too. 3 TF toys in 1 week. Yessss!

I really hope someone can help out Down_Shift. He's been nothing but good to a lot of us members here. Dood, I wish I bought more then one. Srsly. I'll keep my ear out and post a message on the club boards and see if I can help at all. See if they can do a fair price for ya as well.
