Can get it pretty cheap at other stores, UNLESS TT got a notice warning not to sell it. Its not a big thing as yet.

I think he's more talking price, rather than service etc.

I cancelled my star saber pre-order at HLJ and went to cancel this but phone went flat and i forgot about it. Weeks later and I'm glad I didnt, not because of the news, but after seeing the real life car pics :-)

I've read some fan comments suggesting that this may be more about trademark issues w/ a tobacco company rather than protecting children from tobacco advertising on an adult collectible toy. :rolleyes: Just to clarify, this only affects Exhausts sold from US based stores and as mine's preordered from Japan-based HLJ, it shouldn't affect me, right?

I think they're pulling a Harmony-Gold, rather than caring about actual tobacco advertising.

ditto.

BUT I think someone leaked this, I do not expect a tobacco company to be so on the ball.

he has disappeared from HLJ site also but is still in my pre order list so ????

Sigh. I was hoping the Japanese would be OK with it since they smoke like chimneys and have a better understanding that not all toys are for kids. Oh well I guess TT will have to cancel Exhaust. He has probably already been produced also so I doubt they can change the paint job to something else at this stage.

This is going to be interesting, I wonder those of us pre ordered will get it?
Kind of blows if this piece is cancelled as I have the Marlboro decals.
Not to mention the entire numbering system has to be redone if they cannot release exhaust.

Still available at robot kingdom though.
