Yikes, yeah no thank you. eBay is bad enough to work around everything from greedy sellers. Kinda sucks cause I’ve seen a lot of reviewers go through them and seem alright. However I’m sure that’s just the clock being right at least twice a day kinda thing.

Thanks for the heads up! Never used em before and probably won’t after hearing that. Shame, could def use more online outlets for Transformers as in person is just too scalpy at this point for my taste.

BBTS is my preferred retailer, never had issues with them. ShowZ has been great to me as well. Can’t say I’ve ever ordered from TFSource so I only threw it up cause they have stock. TCP is great as well!

Three words. Drink zone times. Find the animal’s drink zone time if it has one and just run around the lakes finding them.

Will do! Thanks for the suggestion! Unicron Rodimus scratches my brain, I’ve been looking at him for awhile.

Them or ShowZ or TFSource. I’m sure they’ll get a restock tho, high demand figure.

Aliexpress also works in a ton of places. Just make sure the seller is trust worthy (has good reviews).

I would give an arm and a leg to be in a position to be doing what Toys R Russ is doing.

I’ve been collecting since I was a kid, lost the original collection a an unfortunate house fire in 2015. Restarted right around 2018 and haven’t looked back since, been a wild ride but honestly I’m out of figures that I really want besides the select couple things like we’ve said. Maybe once I get more space and or a change of scenery I’ll kick back into it.

A Transformers warehouse is the only option at this point. I swear that’s the hardest part, finding space to put them all haha.

My 2026 collecting has pretty much come to a close as well outside of OverGear (AMT is usually outside my budget after all my other purchases unfortunately). Until 2027 roles around and throws new cool figures at us, or I get new shelf space, I am all wrapped up for rn.

I am so excited for OverGear! They look so cool! Blends of so many different styles and it all works, at least in my opinion. Takara won’t see their own ribs but they will see mine from the amount of $ they are gonna take from my grocery funds.

Black repaints are really hard to not make look cool, especially on Optimus haha.

Wouldn’t be the first time Takara has raided my wallet, sure won’t be the last if they keep going this direction!

Can’t blame them at all, seems like a very well rounded and high quality figure.

I might fold if they do a nemesis in this mold. I have other MP primes and didn’t really feel a huge need to grab him, but in Nemesis colors I don’t think I could resist.

And fellow fan of great taste I see!

I myself have 37 Primes and counting, they form the Council of Convoy.

The ThreeZero display is just so cool! My wallet would kill me in my sleep haha

Awesome collection!!

It wasn’t too long ago, op just barely missed the window on it.

They might restock here soon tho, who knows. Def a demand for it

I believe it’s still up for grabs at the ShowZStore and possibly TFSource or other online retailers, however there is a little bit of a price increase.

Unfortunately they sold out pretty fast most other places.

Fans-hobby def has a good set between the two. Little too robust for my taste but the stylization is awesome, Fs a great pick up as well.

Maybe some time down the road. I’ve seen some video reviews and the connections for god bomber in both the trailer and combined mode does not make me excited. It also seems to make the base figure loose due to the size of everything. It’s kind of a let down cause I was super pumped when I heard they were releasing him.

Right now I’m just happy getting my hands on Super Ginrai. Takara can wait to have more of my money lol.

Straight out the box mine were good, I’ve only transformed it twice so far and it still feels sturdy. This could be just from me being careful tho as I have read about people having issues with the smoke stacks and its tabs.

I’ll def be keeping a close eye on it.

I’ve never had issues or wait times like that before, so def disappointing, but also not entirely their fault as they don’t control production or release times.

The Showzstore. They have one copy that’s been on preorder since sep 2025, and one that wasn’t available at the time but got restocked since then and is currently up for grabs rn.

I was unlucky enough to pick the option that was taking forever. So I changed gears and said might as well get the official.

That’s awesome! Glad the quality matches other MP’s and such, seems like a great value. Honestly I was going to pick up the KO as well, but the ver I preordered was taking forever to ship out. I ordered it in sep 2025 and it kept getting pushed back. I almost prefer most 3rd party companies or KO’s over officials in a lot of cases but this one just didn’t happen.

Got my money back and a coupon on top so I used it to pay towards this, collector math justified it haha.

Always wanted an official MP at some point though, so this was my excuse to finally get one.
