Set is up at BBTS

Just ordered mine :D
Wow that's a really good price at $99. I'm ordering it.
Robotkingdom had it listed as well. But looks sold out already. Just preordered from BBTS at $10US less than RK.
Well it makes sense that BBTS would have it at a cheaper deal...... but how much is it going to be with postage. That box is going to be mighty big.
It's about $30 USD for the slowest postage on it. But if you keep it in a POL and add more items to it those additional items will ship for a couple of dollars each.Quote:

Not really... they have been notorious in the past with their scalper pricing on anything they have as an exclusive, or a virtual monopoly of in America.Quote:

Bummer, metal hawk is in gold plastic and magnus prime doesn't have silver trailer parts just grey plastic (though I admit the angle is poor as its in box), until otherwise I...think I'm glad I skipped this yet.
Unless voyager tidalwave is proven to have tampographed logos for his aircraft flight deck which I doubt
Nice, as usual though, too bad only interested in some of the figures
Only figure I want is Pounce. Not sure if I wanna fork out on the whole set just to get him. Man I hope they release him and Wingspan as single-carded figures in the future.. Or maybe even a two-pack..
This is why I'm looking forward to the next toy show or convention with Hasbro. I wanna see who they're gonna announce/release next!
All important comparison pics of Takara LG-35 Super Ginrai and Titans Return Siege on Cybertron Optimus Prime comparisons, reposted by Daimchoc on FB c/o 游珽安

Not a huge difference, just different windows, different size insignias, slightly different hues of color. Biggest difference is HM Ginrai, LG's is much better.
Hmm will have to sell Magnus if I keep this preorder
I'm sure you'll have takersQuote:

Or was it mistakenly left on the box from a computer template that was meant to be used on an upcoming BW set box?
Not that it wouldn't be impossible to do a BW TR box set - we've already seen TakaraTomy do a couple of Beast Wars themed redecos, and the whole box of 5 toys doesn't have to be all BW toys either, as an "invasion" type of set only needs 2 or 3, with the rest being the invading regular bots.
Oooooo...
My gut feeling is that it is a simple mistake. I hope it is not, but I won't be holding my breath.Quote:

My theory/speculation, of course.
I can't find anything so I'll ask.
What is the TM head the magnus prime is using, same as legends ginrai or the "pax" head from hasbro's pmop?
For some reason the stock images make the eyes look red and while I can find pics of the TM figure I can't any of the TM head that is being used.
REALLY tempted to buy a loose one thanks to pc
It uses the same head as Ginrai, but with different paint/plastic colouring.Quote:

They may also be going for a toy accurate set of red eyesQuote:

Dropped in my BBTS POL the other day.Quote:

I can confirm the missing piece, on mine at least. However, it doesn't prevent the Godbomber pieces from connecting. They still clip together and stay on pretty well. I suspect the missing piece might make it tighter, but it's already pretty tight. Now, if I could just get him to stand upright...
I missed the boat to buy this set from BBTS. But Toybot Importz has it for $169

Had. Now sold out.
I have never heard of them before, but always good to see a new retailer
They've been around a lil while. Sold out quick it seemsQuote:
