Same, I got one of those ROTF projector key chains but the battery seems to be flat.

What did you get?

congrats! It's a great figure and works well. City Commander is still better in my books though, heh.

Mine did too dude! Yippi!
You're gonna love it man!

That's sad to hear Tallest, how long ago did you order it now?

Indeed, he is great Heroic and as much as I love City Commander though - that huge waste of a gun puts him that micron lower in awesomeness IMO.
Regardless, both are absolutely exceptional, so I'm gonna post some pics...

3rd Party Products = Pure Freakin' Awesome!!!

Also got mine today and I really like it. Its add so much to the (imo poorly designed) hot rod. having actual arms is quite nice and makes me look foward to MP Rodimus.

My only complaint is the head. comparing it to hot rod you can see why it looks so bad. the head needs some light piping eyes and not cheaply painted ones. the head also lacks the serious looking face and ends up looking like something from animated.

sidearm is very nice quality and transforms decently.

now i just have to wait for my City Commander from RK and Not-Springer from Kyle/Patrick and United Kup. Still havent decided on an Arcee & Spike/Daniel yet.

Hursticon- I pretty much preordered him the day he was available.
However the way my pay works out I paid for him on the 23rd. But I can wait.....Sorta. BTW is Delicate Warrior Arcee a Better choice than Valkyrie?

Shouldnt be too long now TB. I paid mine by paypal on the 17th - processed on the 20th still it arrived quick - yesterday actually - but I was out when the postie knocked so I only got a little note in my mailbox - which I checked at night so I missed getting it yesterday from postie.

Needs only a kup figure and prolly add MP Grimlock so Wheelie can sit top of his head (dino mode of course heheheh) and some quints in the background mwahahahaha 3rd party products galore!!

Too right dude!
Kup, Wreck-gar, I've got MP Grimlock so check and ooh some Quints would indeed be nice!

BTW is Delicate Warrior Arcee a Better choice than Valkyrie?

IMHO? Yes, most definitely.
Though I've not got both nor have I seen both side by side in real life - I've seen a video review comparing the 2 and I've read about a zillion posts between OTCA, TFW2005 and Seibertron though and all opinions seem to go the same way:

MGT-01 Delicate Warrior -
Pros: Superior Quality, Cheaper (Seller Dependant), Suits Classicsverse figures.
Cons: Limited Production number due to this figure being hand-made by 1 guy.

TRNS-1 Valkyrie -
Pros: Suits G1 figures.
Cons: Poor Quality Construction/Paint Apps/Materials, Higher Price.

Hope that helps dude.
