Always mean to place an order, and will one day, but right now I can't help but feel regret having not done so already for this opportunity. I do hope you produce more and that I'll be able to order a Limited UN Spacy one someday.

From your lips to Bandai's ears.

Gosh, I hope so. The seeker mold, either Earth/Tetrajet, needed an update far more then Ironhide did. -
That's what I want to do as well.

I'm not endorsing DD, but they at least have promo codes at times. DEEP10 for 10% off may work on this one (New customer accounts? Worth checking). Also DD is a retailer that makes the cut with cashback sites like Rakuten and RetailMeNot (3% back on purchases atm).

I'll grab one at some point.

I told you they are toys. I'm sure you'll find they printed "BRUSH YOUR TEETH" under the canopy as well.

I'm wondering if they can handle play like the Chunkys. These look like they may be able to take a tantrum or two.
-
I'm waiting until I have one of these in-hand, but they look like they'd be fun to transform if there's enough die-cast, and quality plastic. From a toy perspective alone, these might scratch that Chunky Monkey itch that DX/Arcadia, etc. can't for being too screen-accurate.

Looks like he has a thyroid condition when you compare them. To be fair... Anyhow, I ain't coming down hard on these when folks give Tiny Sessions and Joke Machines a pass. These look look like more fun to transform than deformed or Chibi-type stuff. It's the Lucky Cat Jetwing that I really expected to vary from accuracy more.
-
*cough* Screen-accurate scale replicas, sir. SCREEN-ACCURATE SCALE REPLICAS!

It's a toy. I find it amusing that the 1J has a huge goggle. On a shelf together, it might balance out the 3Z. 😄
-
Gotta say, and especially for the price I paid, I'm happy I got him. The feel and build quality is better than expected; if not perfect. The overly-defined panel lining does bother me, as I thought it would, but it's nothing compared to overall positive experience. The bulbous head I kept moaning about...well, it seems slightly less bulbous. Is that just me, or was there a downsize of it compared to the initial images from awhile back? I still think the goggle/visor should be a few percent bigger relative to the head, but it's not as bad as I first imagined it was form initial pics. I'm handling him gingerly at the moment, and will do a couple transformations before setting on an opinion, but there's zero regret right now. If anything, I'm thinking I'll eventually grab the 1S so far.

Mine, sold and shipped by Amazon. Looks like an extra No Step...or almost, on mine.
-
No cat in the ALF pack??? It's almost as if they knew what the current news of the day might be... Anyhow, I have to get that MEGAN. Still have yet to get the Vultan, though.

Replied a few minutes ago!

Sill, many will be happy to see these popup at retailers other than Walmart now. (I know I will) You mean the "GoBots" one? I actually wish that were more available than it is. -
Amazon will credit you back for damages like that if you contact them. They may even facilitate an exchange.

Someone's gonna do a wellness check on him one day and be buried in them when they force the door.

I'd hate to be caught and trampled underfoot like on a Black Friday store opening when you post them for sale. I'd like just the one finished kit, but don't want to burden my family with funeral expenses on top of it. Can you post a date and time when you will make them available so I can personally brace myself with body armor and Red Bull?
-
After the Amazon deals, I thought the same, but they still kept pumping them out afterward. Not sure.
-
Not a week goes by on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, OfferUp, etc. that someone isn't selling a DETOLF. You can get one at MSRP or less given time. Just remember to start a chat with even the high-priced sellers. Same goes for EXPEDIT and KALLAX shelves (For you record collectors out there).
-
Great googly moogly, those are retail cases. 😄 While I wish I had room for those, and can understand the limitations of DETOLFs in comparison, DETOLFs are more manageable when it comes to assembly and moving them; at least alone. I also come at this as a lowly apartment dweller trying to maximize corners, etc. DETOLFs may have been made more with this in mind when so much other furniture they offer is also for aprtment living versus a house. Altogether, DETOLFs, or at least those inspired by them (KOs!), work best for me so far.
-
I'm not a fan that they go with so much particleboard on this. It relegates these to corners, and even then they are restricted view. Never enough. The end all and be all for the price. Still worth buying secondhand vs other options. Sporadic shattering doors when IKEA switched glass types might be why they may not. Still, they are stupid not to bring it back...even at a higher price. Dioder strips were discontinued.
