Is FansProject doing this guy as part of their Function X line? If so I may wait and compare. Otherwise I can easily see myself getting this.

already have headrobots (and it was a gift from my wife) so pass for now

Looks freekin sweet. He was my first headmaster and one of my faves. I am seriously considering picking this guy up...going to see how I like FP's chromdome first. The headmaster looks great, wish I could see the plug to see how they are connecting the heads. So many headmasters comin out...what a great time to be a tf collector...3rd party wise that is.lol. looks to be getting g better in " official" I hope.

Been trying to follow this... so i think it went up on preorder an then it was gone, now it's back up?

Was the lowest price ever on this 79.99 or 99.99?

Thoughts on availability of this after preorders are over?

Think this goes more with Classics or Masterpiece?

[Bruticus82]

Yeah...apparently BBTS is the only North American retailer who will be carrying this. Or so we've heard.

Probably fit better with classics, I think it's a little small to be masterpiece.

Not sure on the answers to your other questions.

$89.95 on RobotKingdom. It'll be the first to have it, fastest to ship it, and cheapest overall with no customs fees.

Got an email this morning that Hardbone has been delayed until after Chinese new year or even closer to the end of February.

In your experience maybe you can help me with this decision.


I'm debating ordering ToyWorld Hardbone and Aurora from TF Source or RobotKingdom, I know for sure TF Source won't hit me with customs and taxes as I've made tons of orders with them and never been charged plus the packing is almost indestructable.

RobotKingdom is looking like $90+$60+$35=$185 EMS shipping to Ontario, TF Source would be $110+$70+$28=$208 a little cheaper for USPS Priority shipping.

Would seem an obvious choice but customs, handling and tax could be another $35-$40 through RobotKingdom making Tf Source the cheaper overall option. Airmail is a bit cheaper at $25 but no insurance or tracking according to the website and I would also assume a lot longer shipping time.

Do you ship EMS or Regular Air Mail to make sure you don't get hit with customs through RobotKingdom? What sort of shipping timeline do you usually experience with the type of shipping you use?

The payoff could be significant with Robotkingdom IF I don't get hit with fees on delivery.

Your advice is greatly appreciated!

I may just take the chance as worst case scenario is a wash in total cost pretty much.

A simple note with payment, to Robot Kingdom, asking them to mark it as a gift with a value of $40 will erase your customs worries. Its what I do with them.
