Finally got a shipping notification for the Quintesson, Allicon and Snapdragon. Now that the rest of the world is bored with them!

Star have put the expected due date for Earthrise wave 2 back to October, so I assume that'll be the case across the board.
The Sunstreaker, Trailbreaker bunch.

They're going to exist, aren't they..? Very odd that I've already got Trailbreaker's radar dish (courtesy of the Centurion box set) before Trailbreaker himself has been released. But then we do live in odd times... |

I'm so tired of looking at pictures of wave two and three that I almost no longer care about them existing anymore.
I don't think I'd even be upset if hasbro announced their cancellation.

Oh crumbs, I’ve asked to cancel my order cos Snapdragon was ‘out of stock’ and I thought they’d need more in before shipping my deluxes. Whoops! |

Was sorely tempted to go and pick the trio I ordered from Kapow up from Smyths today instead, but given how lost I am regarding that order I think I’ll wait. I’d rather not end up with two of each figure!

I finally caved in and just went to Smyths. If my Kapow order ships I’ll just send it back. Time for some dang robots. ![]() |

Oooo, that in hand Sunstreaker looks MILES better Yeees, I'm a bit cynical about it. The Twitter photos appear to have been taken under a very warm-temperature colour lighting, or he's tweaked the hue in an editor, which I think might be masking the mismatch. More so in the bottom photo than in the two in car mode, where you can still just make it out. If you look back up at your Wave 3 Out in HK photos, with much more natural daylight, you can very clearly see the mismatched colouring through the box window, and it still looks bad. |

Titbit on RFC I'd not heard, one of the regular reliable leakers has said that Polar Claw and Gears were considered for toys but dropped, but the fact they're still on that art piece was overlooked.

No he isn't. Other in-hand pictures clearly show the mismatched yellows.

I cannot promise.
I have avoided Sunstreaker as it does not have the proper red shoulders. It is FAKE STREAKER. Ordered the Spin Out and Cordon versions though.
