$160?

Dude, as good as it looks this is basically a Generations Warpath retool! I really can't see them asking more than $80 for it (and maybe it would still be too much...)

Sorry thats my punctuation, i meant £100 ($160) for two.

Though thought it would be a wee bit biggger, so yes hopefully abour £40 ($60) per item.

Still want one to turn into a zombie though

Yesthat'sverypretty- PLEASE DELIVER ON THE WEAPONS KIT I PAID FOR FOUR MONTHS AGO.

Sorry if that comes over as bashing them but if they're overdue on something people paid for they don't need to be working on other projects right now.

Relax. Creating quality toys is not an easy task. It takes time, money and then...more time. Igear does have a lot on the table right now, but they have to, because in this day and age, fans see a prototype and complain that it's not in their hands yesterday.

And for the record, this project was in the pipeline LONG before the weapons set.

i like pretty much everything that igear is doing lately: getting away from the direct k.o.ing and working with some really nice, original sculpts, and churning out some minibots that put the big H's efforts in that department to shame. but i have to wonder what is going on with the stuff that has been up for pre-order for so very, very long. i've had money tied up with them for a sometimes ridiculous amount of time, so i wish they would finish up some of the toys they've started before teasing us with more new stuff. that's not to say that presser here hasn't been a tease for a year or so already...

IGear convinced me with their recent Mini's so if/when/however this becomes a real able-to-purchase toy I'm getting one.

Looks very nice, but it's low on my list of wanted TFs.

I second that :APPLAUSE:

Would much rather have a quality toy that is done right that they carefully took their time on. Not some POS that was rushed.

Gotta be patient

I've never had an issue with iGear delivering.

It's a shame they don't do something like BBTS' Pile o Loot, where you don't get charged till it ships, but they are a lot smaller an operation than Big Bad, and are the developers, not just resellers. They use that $$$ to fund the projects.

While I have had to wait for their stuff, no one is accusing them of being quick, they have never not delivered.

I'm looking forward to this release.

Who's Impactor ??? Looks great except for the stupid open mouth on the prototype.

Very cool looking indeed! ;)^

Hopefully the QC issues are few or next to none. :VEHI:

Looks awesome. I am a HUGE Wreckers fan, yet I say nay-nay. I've paid for Ratchet and Ironhide 7 months ago! $220. I want that before I will order anything else from these A.D.D. afflicted toy makers. For that, send my weapons upgrade and Golden Bee too!

He is awesome though...

This is the top of my to buy list! I've been intentionally putting off putting up a Wreckers shelf because I'm not taking Springer and Kup from the Movie display so I need that Impactor to go with a half dozen oddball purchases and customs!

Pretty much this. I like the idea of a Zombie mod. All we need are Flywheels and his reinforcements done in a classics style too.
