MP Hot Rodimus/Hotrod revealed

[High_Q]

I never noticed how much larger Springer is compared to Arcee and the other deluxe car robots to the right!

I suppose his size will make it easier to realise the triple changer gimmick if Takara ever plans an MP Springer.

I remember seeing this shot from the movie and it always surprised me at how much of a big dude Springer really was, particularly when compared to Arcee:

I'm torn. Normally I'd watch it straight away, well, wait until lunch break then watch it. But the pleasant surprise that was Ironhide, I'd probably wait to find out about the engineering first hand myself.

I'm sure this has already been asked and answered so I apologise in advance but do we have an ETA for him this month and Shockwave next month? Personally I have them ordered through HLJ and am trying to figure outif they will arrive in the 60 day PW limit that my MP Ironhide started off
