Quick update on the pre-order status of the 2012 TFCC exclusives Shattered Glass Drift and Runabout. The club has tweeted that we can expect the pre-orders to open in the last week of this month and both should be under $60.00.

Right now, the TENTATIVE date for Runabout and Drift pre-orders are last week of January. Maybe even the last day of January.

Both Drift and RunaBOUT should be under $60. That is the HIGH end, but for "budgeting", there you go...

IMHO,SG Drift looks like & should be called Swerve. Runabout,I think looks better than the club freebie figure.

IMHO,$60 is a lot for each repaint club toy. no thanks. I ain't spending 6 times the price of a retail deluxe,then another $8 in shipping fees.

Isn't that the reason why limited release re-paints/sculpts are expensive? Just like recently released Stepper.

Though not going to get one, I tip my hat on the Runabout release..........finally a decent version over my fav g1 brick. :lol:

Don't bother explaining, one simply doesn't understand what's goin on

Runabout looks good.. but i feel so lethargic in buying exclusives when I feel like I can go ahead and customize them myself.. and the Wheeljack mold is ez money. Still, wouldn't mind seeing how the head looks and I'd rather have the original (if I can actually cut through the buyer frenzy) then spending hours working on a head with green stuff.

SG Drift is cute but if it was originally a Blurr mold I'd be buying all it's repaints, but since it's originally Drift... any more usages of this mold can peace out.

You cannot be serious.

Dammit. Why did my school plan a 5-day long camp starting from the last day of January? :sad:

I swear the world is trolling me, now i'll be stuck with 1 runmuck and no runabout :sad:

I'm still surprised that the twins both weren't the buy figures and SG Drift the freebie. Still, I'm getting both..........

It's all very tempting, but I've seen this movie already.

Servers will crash.
Butts will be hurt.
Lonely ass Runamucks stumbling, shell-shocked, onto eBay.
Profits will be made.
Collectors will swear to not renew memberships.

>:oP

I'll sit this one out.

Oh, I agree. If I can't get Runabout, then Runamuck is sold, and I won't renew. These two are the reason I rejoined the club this year. If they fumble the ball this many years into it, why in the world should I stick around for them to do it again? :???:

They would have to be pretty spectacularly stupid to not produce at least as many Runabouts as they have members, plus a few since people seem to really like black cars.

I'm hoping it's last day of January as that's payday.

I can't wait for Runabout and Runamuck. I was going to pass on SG Drift but seeing as this years Con set includes SG, I'm going to grab him as well.

Hopefully these stick around till i get back on the 3rd Feb to order... If not, I hope runabout gets a 2nd release, like with CPC... Well if I still don't manage to get it, would probably sell Runmuck too :-(

Was able to get Cheetor and Ramjet without any issues last year. Hopefully, I can do the same with Drift. I love Deadpool, and I think this is a pretty cool homage.

I am going to be upset if I can't get Runabout. I signed up for the club this year for those two.
