    Considering the Americans, the English (and most likely again the Japanese) wanting this toy will have to pay the ENTIRE amount a year before release (like with Unicron), we are really really really lucky to not have to pay for 70% of it until next year (if they want to charge the rest of the $100).
    There was no way I would have bought 1 Unicron, let alone 2, if we weren't able to spend 18 months slowly paying it off... something most other people now owning Unicron around the world were unable to do.

    Just saying that there is always the risk no matter how strong financially the company may seem. I'm a pessimistic person, and since it is not something I must have or else, I'm okay to not get it than have the company hold onto my money for a while when I get no benefit for doing so (this is only my opinion and preference).

    So it's been a week and we're already at the halfway point, so it's looking likely we'll be getting this figure.
    Be interesting to see if the 3 tiers at hit.
    I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures

    Also, numbers from international retailers are likely not in that total yet.
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    Everyone seems to be relying on that at this stage, but I wonder how accurate that statement is.

    I am sure that there could been some streamlining since the Unicron project to have retail orders be more real time. But on the other hand, I can also imagine that retailers like EB Games only want to put in one order, rather than multiple single orders.
