Tico0001 Posted December 11, 2003 Posted December 11, 2003 Awesome! I think it's time for me to preorder this! And a quick question... since when BT-02 was named lambor?? Who IS lambor? ~Tico Quote
Californium Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 Lambor is Sideswipe. But Sideswipe is not Lambor. It's a zen thing. My question, why did they give Sideswipe fat lips and a protruding block chin? It makes him look like a completely different TF. <_< Oh well. Quote

David Hingtgen Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 LOL, anyone else catch the mispelled 'the' --- 'teh' on the box? Fairly common mistake on recent JP TF's. World's Smallest TF's have it all over their boxes. Quote
eriku Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 Am I the only one that doesn't like to examine every square centimeter of a toy in pornographic detail before I get it? It takes away some of the magic for me I guess. Like a Star Wars fanboy reading the script before the movie comes out. Quote
Wumzi Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 Well that's not good... HLJ already shows it as being discontinued. But I pre-ordered it as soon as it got listed Quote
Anubis Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 Amazing. Can't wait to get mine from Tam. My only quibble is why is the rifle grey instead of black? Other than that, perfect. Quote
GobotFool Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 Well that's not good... HLJ already shows it as being discontinued.But I pre-ordered it as soon as it got listed If you preordered a while back you should be fine. The same happened with the BT-smokescreen, and I still got mine. Quote
Tico0001 Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 Lambor is Sideswipe. But Sideswipe is not Lambor. It's a zen thing. This clarifies why i thought it was supposed to be sideswipe... but the zen part just got me more confused... ~Tico Quote
UN Spacy Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 (edited) If you preordered a while back you should be fine. The same happened with the BT-smokescreen, and I still got mine. Well. How far back did we have to preorder from HLJ.com to guarantee a copy. I preordered mine November 24th......does that mean I'll have less of a chance than those that ordered before me?

cube Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 damn that looks nice...i wonder why they made the matrix-light-up button blue? ...seems red woulda made more sense. I may have to try scanning the trailer into my computer and printing it out as sticker sheets (to chuck on a custom styrene trailer) Quote
North of 49 Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 (edited) I wouldn't worry too much about your preorder. However I ordered mine the day it was listed back on the 17th of September and have not received any confirmation of shipping yet. I went through the same thing with my smokescreen and I ordered it quite a while after it was listed on HLJ. Would I have liked to get it shipped as soon as it came out? Yes and it now is Am I all that worried about not getting one? Not any more I just have to stay patient Well I don't have to be too patient now. Just got my confirmation of processing and it should be on its way soon. Best christmas present to myself in years. Edited December 12, 2003 by North of 49 Quote
eriku Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 I hope Will at Blasto gets his in soon. Quote
GDomino Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 If you preordered a while back you should be fine. The same happened with the BT-smokescreen, and I still got mine. Well. How far back did we have to preorder from HLJ.com to guarantee a copy. I preordered mine November 24th......does that mean I'll have less of a chance than those that ordered before me? With HLJ, I'm not sure anymore... I seem to remember this going on with Dancougar back in January... HLJ says they prioritize by the day you put in your preorder but I was hearing of people who preordered theirs just days before release and getting one while some who placed theirs in months before, had to wait for the next batch... I can now say that I am one of the lucky ones who preordered fairly late in the game and still got in on the first batch. Quote
isamu_dyson Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 (edited) Quote from HLJ: Additional stock of this item is coming in early January. If your order was not filled from the limited shipment we received in December, please be patient; we should be able to fill it in January. they have putt the MP convoy in discontinued to fill all the orders they already have on this toy:) .......... i hope Edited December 12, 2003 by isamu_dyson Quote
Chuey Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 The MPC Prime is definitely a thing of beauty. Sadly, another item that I need to wait on until I improve my fiances. Quote
