Derry!


About the order
Thank you so much for the terrific service. I've never had such smooth, flawless transactions before.


Bumblebee
I was wondering, do you have access to the Bumblebee press? There was a G1 variant red Bumblebee made back in 1984.

This would be something my group and many Transformer fans would want.


Optimus Prime
Also, were you planning on continuing the Optimus Prime releases? Everyone from the group buy is still holding onto hope for something like this:

Clear Optimus Prime:

Chrome Optimus Prime:

Lucky Draw Optimus Prime:

(Lucky Draw items are extremely limited in numbers (only 20 of these exist). In this version, the reissued Prime's chrome parts were flipped to a gold chrome)

I can purchase / presell however many it would take to get this done.


Thanks again for everything, I truly appreciate it.
Andrew
I'm putting the grips on to see if more Primes can make it. That red Bumblebee has to be released. It would sell so much better than the Yellow one.

I'm in for it all :cry:

My "trailer park" wouldn't be complete without those primes.

The Lucky Draw variant might be off though.

The stickers cannot be altered. Those remain silver. On the LD, they're gold tinted. We'd have 2 options (assuming this can be done)

a) leave the stickers on, have the gold trim pieces, but ... still be a bit inaccurate.

b) ask them to leave the stickers off. ask them not to seal the box. DeltaStar @ Reprolabels should be able to cook up custom tinted sheets for us. It'll be (I'm guessing) $20-$25 a sheet.

since the boxes are smaller ... and I don't think work cares about a shipping limit anymore, I'm about to send the following boxes:

Steven (Nevets) - 2 items
Jef (Monk) - a boat load
Chris (Hammy) - 1 bumblebee
Manny (Reno) - 3 tapes

Tomorrow will be for Aaron (Amst) and Jae.

FINALLY ... an eHobby release that's WORTH it

(found on TFW)
http://www.e-hobby.co.jp/cgi-bin/omc...UCT&code=tfe26

CLEAR Alternators Mirage. MSRP: $50

This will presell though the roof. As soon as TFSource or BBTS opens up their presales, get on it.
