WONDERFUL! Okay tysm! I've got mine on order
Ages 3 and up appear to have found some leftovers in their warehouse so in gettin a brand spanking new one

He's very sturdy still, I've transformed him back and forth many many times. All the other guys are sturdy too, except Axle which I have to handle with kid gloves for the metal parts.

People who already own copies of this guy, how is he holding up over time?
I like a bot i can flip between modes without fear that theyre gonna wear down super bad. he's back in stock at A3U and im really tempted, can i get some testimonials?
Kuma Style
Honestly, that's a good discussion… I guess thinking about it, if I didn't do reviews and stuff I probably would never transform the majority of my stuff because I pretty much anything I own that I haven't reviewed/photographed in alt mode I haven't transformed.

(These have nothing to do with this conversation; I took all of these pics at once and was posting these regardless

Wasn't a reference to your pics or anything.
Just was looking at them and realized I never did. I figured I probably wasn't the only one.
Kuma Style
… Ok?
Nemesis251
I never even tried to put this guy in alt mode.

They can double stack the plastic trays just like what they've done for the last 2 boxsets. I am guessing Vulcan will be packed in alt mode if they release the boxset.

Most of my last batch of orders, yes, all from AR. HK sellers are always much cheaper and faster for us aussies than going through US sellers and they tend to get mt stuff first.

Did you order him from Action Robo, Aza? I'm still waiting on the 10-day notice from BBTS.

Vulcan now confirmed to be in stock at Action Robo
Oh man do I hope mine ships out this week.
OptionZero
I bit the bullet and preordered from AR but their last FB comment said they expected it end of the month
mikeszekely
Wondering the same thing. I've preordered Vulcan from BBTS the day they started taking then and haven't gotten a 10-day notice. I think some other retailer said they were getting them on the 30th.
LazyAza
Don't think so, possibly their retail shop but I've seen no post about it on their FB yet. Theirs a few hk sellers who don't have online stores from what I understand that get 3p stuff in first sometimes.

I recently found that MT did their own videos for the transformation for Vulcan, just like they did for the others.

Action robo?

Yet, I still remain (possibly and blindly) hopeful for one. C'mon MakeToys' don't break this awesome tradition you dawned on us!
G.I.EDDIE
Guess that explains the lack of a boxset. His box alone is huge!
LazyAza
You don't need one really as the transformations are very straight forward.
However I already did videos for the limb transformation anyway if you're interested:
Axle – Leg Mode
Rover – Leg Mode
And I did Himed and Katana's at around the 5:30 mark in my update vid.
Vulcan's will be in his review when i get him, or my Guardia video when I do that.
