Grahf: That's a higher price than what I was expecting. But the same can be said about the original.

I don't think this is going to change anyone's mind though. If they didn't want it before, this price is still too high.

For those that did want it but thought the real one was priced too high, then this might get them to buy it though.

It's more than half the price of the original. I also don't like this or the concept behind it. So this is still too much for me. Maybe about about $45 I'd pick it up for the novelty and then wish I got something else instead. But now I can skip that step and just get something else.

I just remember certain forums that were dreading and complaining about things that were just "G1 with articulation". Yet people seem to love this even despite the prices. But if there's anything I've learned about the forum dwelling members of the community, they're hypocrites. Especially one or two of them in particular and several Youtubers.

JuliosK8: When was this announced? Is it that figure that was announced under the name of Jiang Xing or whatever? The same company as that Megatron TM2?

Grahf: Cancelled?!?!

I posed a question on another listing the other day. That would it not have been cancelled had we put in some preorders here.

Normally putting in a preorder would give the company some idea if it's wanted or not.

But it seems that's not how it works here at Show Z.

Does Show Z even report to the companies how many preorders they get for a figure?

I mean, there's still open preorders for things that were officially cancelled years ago. Also the lack of updates from Show Z on items that get additional things added or changed like the DNA listings. So it makes me think that there's no communication between Show Z and these companies.

I put down several preorders on items trying to show support but those items still seem to quietly get cancelled and end up on permanent hiatus here. It just makes me think that I should preorder at a site that does actually report to the companies to show my support for an item but then cancel it before it comes out to order here for cheaper and for the points. But that just opens up other problems as it skews the count needed at that other store.

Point being is that I'd like to know if it would've mattered had I put a preorder in for this. Would Show Z have told Metagate how many people here wanted one.

Like did my preorder for Craftsman Toys Tigerhawk matter?

They moved onto so called legends scale Technobots even though the Tigerhawk went up for preorder months before Nosecone.

So is their Tigerhawk postponed?

Is their Tigerhawk cancelled?

Was their Tigerhawk ever supposed to come out?

Did my preorder on that matter?

Should I cancel my preorder?

If so, when should I cancel it?

I still really want that Tigerhawk. And the one from Jiang Xing.

I want all the Tigerhawks.

Carlanga: I understood these could not be sold in the USA, but could it be that I am mixing these guys with another set?
