    Chromia and Arcee are indefinitely delayed. Crosscut too.

    Yep, every email I got this morning was bad news.

    So we probably won't see them until next year after the movie line wraps up

    Oh, FFS! Just when you think Hasbro cannot become any more inept, they turn themselves into a toy company that doesn't actually produce toys!

    Indeed! I was wondering if this was going to happen. Its happened before and will happen again. Glad I never bothered collecting the deluxes. I wonder if this will repeat with the voyagers including Roadbuster and co. ?

    Obviously BBTS have given up trying to apologise for Hasbro's incompetence, as I haven't received anything from them explaining why my pre-order of Rattrap has now been delayed until June. (I ordered the single figure, not a case)

    I think they assume that fans will be expectant of such delays from Hasbro.

    I got an email saying that Rattrap, Tankor and Crosscut have been delayed as Hasbro has decided to release them in different waves. They don't know when Crosscut will come out now, and Rattrap and Tankor are to come out in June.

    I'd ordered the set of 3, but now I'm just going to order Tankor on his own and not bother with Rattrap (organic looking alt modes don't do it for me).

    Glad I got my BBTS order shipped earlier this month and didn't bother to wait for this wave to arrive in April like it was supposed to

    I'm in the EXACT same boat Verno, no email or anything so this is the first I've heard of the delay. Irritatingly I have been sitting on my POL for a month waiting for Rattrap.

    Screw it, it's getting shipped now .....

    Oh and my Arcee and Chromia
    I can understand two - one to open, one to display. But why a third Waspy? Takara version?
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    Probably to display in each mode and a sealed one.

    At least he got 2. I haven't even received one yet. 1st world problems right?
