While the delay is certainly annoying it is a good thing that this was caught ahead of shipping out to stores causing a huge headache for everyone.

Source of the misassembly rumor is the (so far) reliable MPG leaker https://tieba.baidu.com/p/9497201646#/

I think most collectors are willing to put up with a delay in production, as long as it means they don't have to 'fix' the figure themselves later (coughcoughcoughKingdomGalvatroncoughcough86Optimuscoughcoughcough)....

Thanks, Scotty!
That's because the Hasbro release was always going to be much later than the Takara Tomy release. Depending on how long the delay is it may not have an affect, but it'll probably get pushed back at least a month.

I can now finally share my photos of the AMT Rodimus. This figure so so SO GOOD.
I love it so much. the IDW look ultra stylized, he looks and functions very nicely. I love the transformation, the tricks with the front wheels and the thighs are both fantastic. The robot is clean, the paint work is beyond incredible, I cannot gush about this guy enough, probably why I have taken so many photos of him!
He also looks so good in my Lost Light shelf

Epic photos, D-Max! Good to hear that he is as nice as he looks!
I just ordered mine as soon as I saw it was in-stock. I went with Pulse since BBTS has him at an extra 25 dollars. I could have gotten a whole deluxe for that difference. So I ordered a Que as well and didn't actually save any money today.

I was so happy with my Rodimus ...
Until his leg fell off. Yeah. The mechanism involved in transformation warped the plastic inside the leg making it hard to pull out at the right time and the rivet came loose instead. This was the second transformation.
I contacted BBTS about it, but between tariffs and me living in Canada and it being sold out I dunno.
