MP Soundwave and Encore Fort Max release dates have apparently been put back a month.

On the one side it's good as it gives me more time to save. On the down side Soundwave was for christmas and really the only thing I'm looking forward to

Well, this really sucks :( They're the only two toys I have on pre-order and Soundwave was going to be my Xmas present too. I literally only just placed my pre-order for Soundwave last night!

I wonder why the delay :confused: If it's to fix QC issues then I applaud TT - if not, it doesn't make any sense and is just going to pi$$ed a lot of people off.

At least MP-14 Red Alert wasn't mentioned about being delayed:rolleyes:

Oh well...

I ordered MP Soundwave, Sideswipe and Red Alert from RK all in one order, now delayed those until next year-

Lucky there's other stuff to get for Christmas.. but I was so looking forward to these....

It sux, but at least (as others have mentioned) it gives me more time to save... especially for Fort Max!

That's why i don't pre-order much/often, i tried to save on shipping with another member for MP-12 and we barely saved 3 bucks... had to travel down to his which end up being full rrp anyways lol. I don't mind getting my items separately. Also sometimes i question if I should wait a month between releases to have a bulk delivery to save 10-20 bucks.

Well that is an annoying hassle to deal with. Soundwave is the last item for a big box i've ordered, any 2013 shipping i am getting sent to my parents as i am moving towns in January. When they receive this box as well as a Fort Max box they might try sit me down for an intervention.

Meh, I don't mind. Gives me more time to save up for Fort Max... and United Artfire is meant to come out late December, but could be early January -- so delaying MP Soundwave might make it easier for me to have both him and Artfire shipped together. :) I'm sure they have their reasons for delaying the release of these toys. At least they've announced it rather than just delaying it without notice.

A part of me says awww... but a more significant part of me says "thank goodness I got more time to get money together!!" :rolleyes:

Seeing as how the Mayans never used leap years (you know the extra day & all that), the Mayan calender really finished a few months ago.

I personally believe that they ran out of space to write the calendar, then left it like that as a joke on us today

This is actually a good thing for me. I wasn't planning on pre-ordering til December, so this will really free up some Christmas cash flow.

What if you survived the apocalypse and had to venture all the way to TakTom's factory to recieve the Soundwave prototypes? Sounds like a perfect Hollywood movie idea.

You know, that is kind of possible. If we can 'liberate' a plane, I may be able to fly you guys there ;)

Paid for my Soundwave back in July. Been a long time waiting. Just as long as he comes out perfect I guess I can wait a bit longer

Hopefully this gives them the time they need to check for QC issues.

I'd have to say it is helpful on the financial side of things. If I stopped buying expensive 3rd party things that might help too.
