    it is but its not that noticeable once you have the actual backpack down, you can see it on mine due to the angle and i forgot to put the backpack down.

    I think that FP is trialing the market to see how receptive it is to a 'new' character concept which is not a 3rd party of Transformers.

    From what I hear, it sold really well so it may prompt them to release more or a variation of the same mold.

    FP confirmed at TFcon that there will definitely be a 2nd Wave release of Steelcore & that there will also be future Repaints/Minor-Retools of the figure planned for later down the line.
    The only difference though, is that they wont be selling anything through there site again for a while and will instead be selling their wares through the usual Online Retailers.

    The reason being that they were completely overwhelmed with the volume that sold so quickly and only had a single bloke handling all of the orders - That's receiving the order, packing it and then shipping it; One Guy, this is why it has taken so very long to get the Steelcore orders out and has taught them a great many things.

    They have said, as such, that they'll be using Online Stores (As done in the past) until they're able to build up the resources to handle it properly themselves.

    FPC mentioned that they're shipping in order of the time you placed your order in. I was wondering when exactly did you place your order in? A few forum members and I are still waiting anxiously

    Hope they do re-release it, it would be good for their fanfare They've been amazingly responsive to their fans. Also hope those Warbot instruction comics are a clue to more original Warbots being releasing after Assaulter!

    That is one top bloke

    Glad they're experimenting with other supply chain channels, perhaps in future that one bloke will have a few more blokes under him to assist Hopefully that will bring down the price on the other reseller websites.
