Hopefully everyone gets one (or 2 as one might want)... Otherwise, if there is overstock and a ridiculous amount of returns, this could be bad for future Masterpiece releases (as another board member, CPrime, mentioned), as TRU (or other retailer) might cut back to ordering MP-10-like quantities next time.
It would be interesting to know how many people placed orders, and what quantity has been ordered.
As of right now, pre-orders are still available on the Canadian .ca webSite. The US .com webSite seems to indicate that MP SoundWave is not available.
Let's get nerdy:
A standard 40' Hanjin shipping container has interior dimensions of 473.5" x 92.3" x 93.6".
MP Soundwave's box dimensions are 13.7" x 13.7" x 6.5".
Essentially, one could fit a maximum of 2856 MP SoundWaves in a single standard 40' Hanjin shipping container.
Almost 950 different members have visited the Cybertron.ca messageboards this week. Everyone could order the maximum of 3 and there would be enough to go around.
(yes, there are other boards and other people ordering too...
)
Now, if they would have shipped him in Cassette Player mode and made the box smaller...
