    FP Bruticus' secondary market price has not moved in the last 9 or so months (stuck on about $450), so it's probably unlikely to budge anytime soon.

    Good point, thanks for that. I've had a pretty good run of luck with RK thus far so haven't had to go elsewhere yet

    I think he's agreeing with my decision to get Green Giant first in light of the fact FP Bruticus' price has skyrocketed and that he expects Green Giant to follow suit once it is no longer available from retailers. I'm counting on Bruticus' price remaining more or less static.

    In stock at BBTS too. Looks like I backed the wrong horse this time, lol.

    Hopefully it's only a difference of days and not weeks. I've had my order in and paid for since the end of April, enough with the waiting!

    From TFSource...

    "All of our Preorders are part of the first run as we have not received those yet. Generally the distributors closest to the Manufacturer’s plant tend to get them first as the travel distance for shipping is not as great as shipping to the US. But, it is encouraging that Robotkingdom has theirs - could very well mean ours could be on the boat soon! As soon as we hear for certain, it will be posted on the site as well as Facebook and Twitter. Hope you have a great afternoon! Thank You and Best Regards,
    Nicole"

    BBTS still says preorder. Are you sure they had him in stock? I only ordered mine last week so maybe I missed out on first run.

    Seems that way. It appears they only received a small-ish initial shipment.
