eHobby Exclusive Guardian Robot Announced

[Tober]

And so Tober ponders...

Is it better to pay extortionate amounts for exclusives I want, or be thankful for exclusives I have absolutely no desire whatsoever to own...

ponders...

maybe if they released it in it's origional colors...

ponderous...

[Kyle]

This one is actually pretty tempting... :p

[Pulse]

Now that was completely unexpected. :confused:

Honestly, it didn't even cross my mind that they'd even consider repainting Omega into a Guardian Robot. I guess it's about milking each mould for all that's it's worth. Still, it doesn't look too bad at all. :)

drool...

[dirge]

I'm keen on this one, although I'm not sure where I'll display it.

I actually expected this figure to be announced, and have ordered it (:

[Robzy]

That looks fantastic! Nice close up of the face too!

[Burn]

Bulk order? Or can someone simply point me in the direction of where I can order one myself?

This will in fact be my first E-Hobby exclusive.

[Gutsman Heavy]

I'm so there

[TheDirtyDigger]

What's the character background for this guy or have they just repainted him as a money making excercise?

You'll either need to order from a dealer (such as Big Bad Toy Store), use eBay or - if you can - rely on a contact in Japan (which is what I am able to do).

The Guardian Robots from War Dawn.

[Gutsman Heavy]

Robotkingdom have the ratchet and ironhide ehobbys, I assume they'll get this too

[Paulbot]

I called this back in January (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showpost.php?p=2873&postcount=34). It's good news and I think I will order this one. :)

Clever Ehobby i like it how its a relevant repaint

can you take the head off in robot mode?

maybe they is releasing all decepticons from war dawn in encore line, megatron, starscream, skywarp, thundercracker-conspiracy?

[kup]

I also expected this but not so soon!

I am up for a group order if there is one!

Would HLJ stock them?

[dirge]

HLJ do not stock eHobby excusives. You'd have to rely on BBTS, fan2fan or RobotKingdom (or eBay).

[MV75]

I thought ehobby did retail prices?

$140 is pretty exxy in comparison to the encore. ;)

I think many of us older fans were expecting this one when Omega supreme reissue was announced. I must get it as well.... :p

What Dirge said - no, HLJ don't stock exclusives from eHobby, Wonderfest or Lawsons. They do stock some other exclusives tho.

eHobby take orders from other retailers tho so their exclusives arn't as hard to come by as Wonderfest or Lawsons.

No retail prices on their exclusives. Probably because of the limited run on it and extra colours.

Would be nice to have, but the colours in base mode look a bit bleargh

[Soundwarp]

Drool!!!!!

They also sell the normal toys as well. Fair bet they stick up an option to buy Omega Supreme and Sentinel in the one go for a small discount over buying them separately.

LOL bom bom tish!:D
