They only offer pre-orders on their website and instock stuff via ebay, I presume to avoid those silly people who buy the "pre-order" listing and don't read the whole line expecting instant delivery and then give neg feedback, they give me a decent chuckle.

Either way its cheaper via their own webshop as they charge more via their ebay page to cover ebay fee's.

So be prepared for a long wait. Given that this thread is about Trypticon actually being in stock, and many of us are going to run out and grab the first one we see, this deal might not be for you.

I am planning a few little strategic buys over the next 6 months. It will be interesting to see just how much you can attach onto an existing delivery. $35 + $15 for a Voyager doesn't seem that great, but $35 + $35 + $35 + $15 is a lot more interesting.

I don't think he's worth $298 but he's not a small toy.

That's only if you make the legs dead straight.... The comments come from TakTom pics vs metroplex with a bit of posing, which bought him down a bit, and therefore threw off people's thoughts on him

So the catalogue has leaked on line
Sale price is $248

Yep... see here.

Okay, I think that's an acceptable price for Trypticon. Bought on sight... next challenge is to try and find the damn thing in a store (and hope that it doesn't get prematurely scalped like CW Devastator was) :rolleyes: Back up plan is my PC pre-order that I've already paid for months ago TLTC.

If anyone is keen... my local Big W had 6 pieces last night.
This is in Perth.
I was expecting a humongous box... would be interesting to see how they squish Trippy in the box :p

I've seen the inside of the box. He's in parts lol. I think both his legs are off and laid flat out next to his torso

His legs are not attached. I suspect you won't be able to remove them and place back in the box, if any of the Gi joe vehicles are anything to go by

Same with Metroplex and Fort Max. The arm packed separately clicks right in there, so I don't think it is supposed to be able to be removed without damaging it.
