I don't get it either. I order from one of our sponsors, and I've never had anything cancelled on me. It may not arrive as early as some other places, but it always arrives.

For me, pre-ordering from Amazon is like going back to an abusive relationship. They're not going to change.

Well, if Hasbro's reveal video is any indication, only Motormaster is a must if you have the CW limbs. I pre-ordered all 3 that are revealed so far. If the other 2 is not great, I might skip and keep the CW if the combined Menasor can be made stable & articulated. But yeah... it's steep.

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

I was in WalMart yesterday and there was Legacy leader G2 Optimus, leader Galvatron, deluxe Skids, and Voyager Bulkhead. I like all 4 figures, but to buy those 4 figures would have been almost $270 after tax. I just couldn't do it... 4 mainline Hasbro figures for $270. Do I have $270? Yes. Are those 4 figures worth $270 to me? No.

Only the legs from CW can connect to Motormaster. The arms are a different system. And even then the CW legs arnt a perfect fit. They'd be loose as the connector isn't the same. Mark pretty much said so in the roundtable QA the various boards did with Hasbro after the wave 2 reveals.

I saw all the deluxe figures once. I looked at the price, thought about making a detour into to the pharmacy for some Vaseline, did some stretches so I could reach behind and get a firm grip on the cheeks. And I couldn't go through with it in the end. There isn't enough stretching and Vaseline in the world.

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Has anyone received Legacy deluxes from Amazon.ca? I didn?t trust .CA so I ordered Dragstrip and Kickback from .COM. Dragstrip came last week; Kickback today. Just curious if there?s been any movement on these items from .CA orders.
