    If the RK shipping is as good as last time, it should arrive next week sometime.
    To Dapto dude, my average transit times tend to be about 4-5 days so I think it's almost certain you'll get him next week; Both Peaugh's & Vangelus' reviews made me feel really dumb for not having bought this figure when I had the chance/money - You'll have to bring him to the next Parra Fair!

    I think like most other people, we were waiting for a review since their knight morpher was imo pretty bad. and with disappointing stuff like MP rodimus, pre-ordering had become a jaded experience with high priced items.

    I really like this Shockwave, but I think I'll wait for a revision as those fragile tabs are really worrying.

    The first edition Knight Morpher wasn't bad, it was just unrefined. It had some odd choices when it comes to pegs and material quality wasn't great. However his design and engineering was very sound.

    MP Rodimus on the other hand was a rip-off if you bought the first Japanese release showing that 'Official' does not necessarily mean quality.

    That is why when they re-released the Knight Morpher with the Annihilator refinements, I immediately bought one and I am so glad that I did as it is pretty awesome.

    Vangelus review of Annihilator (same mold as 2nd edition Knight Morpher Commander)

    It seems that the first batch of Cyclopses sold out and they are waiting for an August restock.

    I am afraid that I missed out on the first batch so I may have to wait till then

    Ah bugger!

    Oh well, I'll be in the same boat too dude should I manage to raise the funds to acquire one of my own; After watching a multitude of reviews, I'm really thinking I'll acquire this as my 'Classicsverse' Shockwave as the FoC is nice but it's just too small and not "Nice" enough.

    But this one is GIGANTIC

    I am not sure if it would fit in Classics.

    True, it is giant but then I'm a sucker for Giant robot toys and the original artwork really sparked my imagination.
    (Sort of like what Tidalwave did in the Armada PS2 game, scale-wise )

    He'd fit into the Hursti-verse just fine.
