MP-28 Hot Rod... Shipping/Release Speculation and Enthusiasm Thread - Cybertron.CA - Canadian Transformers News and Discussion

Since the thread I started for MP-27 worked out so well I thought I'd just post the same thing for the soon to be released MP-28 as well.

From what I understand payment/shipping notices should be going out soon (perhaps already received by some depending on the retailer).

I was always excited for this one the only thing that bugged me was his backpack. But now having seen a couple of reviews and seeing just how much of the alt modes back half collapses up in there seems to totally justify the backpack. Will take Hot Rods over the one on Tracks any day. Seeing so many pictures posted on Twitter and so very poseable.

And I can't quite say why but I'm digging the fishing rod.

At any rate who has gotten payment requests?

Who else is excited?

Heck who isn't excited?

Got payment request from NY last week or so, I am trying their small packet shipping but I have no idea how it works. I am more excited about shockwave over hot rod though.

Oh yes MP-29 will be released Mar 31. It will come in the same box like MP-11/13/22.

And then finally MP-30 on Apr 23. My wallet can take a break after this 1 MP per month for 6 months.

no wait there's still MP-11NR if I can get me hand on one...

Thanks

I had heard the 24th but the 27th also works. The store I PO'd from was AmiAmi and at least so far they don't send payment requests until they actually receive the stock. So unless they have some staff processing orders on the 27th (which is their Sunday more or less) I may have to wait for the payment request to arrive on the 28th... Or I suppose they may send them earlier on the last business day before release...

I keep forgetting about that guy...

So glad that with MP-30 I can be done with MP Decepticons. Always been much more of an Autobot sort of guy. I can be content with just having Megatron (well actually XTB Apollyon) and his three lieutenants (plus minions).
