I was wondering about the release date myself. Better get the funds ready by next week then so they will be ready when BBTS gets Nightbird and Blackarachnia.

Yep, 24th is the date Amazon JP has. AmiAmi/HLJ will likely start getting their stock in Thursday night or Friday, and US retailers early-to-mid next week.

24th IIRC. That's the word floating around.

Any word on when these are coming out? I thought they were due this month, but the month's almost over.
Dark Jedi
Thanks I missed the preorder at AE where I have the other two. Now I can get all 3!

With the quotes that were made earlier, I was wondering if apple & orange are actually different kind of fruits. (For a moment I thought I was being taught the wrong stuffs since young & that alone would have me raging!)
Thanks for the validations that some of you boys made after that…Set me at rest now.

I don't have the funds at the moment, and I'm not sure how my parents'll react to the whole pre-order thing.

Why does everyone make Hasbro like the devil in this? Just because they can make figures repaints doesn't mean they have to be ridiculed like crazy.
This statement is stupid. Wanna know why? Repaints and remolds are two different things. Repainting means you change the paint on the figure. Remolding is molding different parts and adding on or removing parts off of a figure. You seem to think they're the same thing when they aren't.

You clearly dont know what you are talking about and are just here to stir up a fuss. Most combiner wars toys are redecos with new heads (or not) while very few (I doubt more than 5) are extensive retools. And worse, in combiner wars, they are using redecos/retools to give us characters we already got. Every single one of these takara toys is either of a toy we have never gotten or never gotten in the classics line, and heavily remolded. Its basically a subscription service toy but at half the price (when importing them yourself). And thats amazing!
Why dont you just buy them now instead? They are coming out in a month and you can preorder now and not need the headache. Theya re only 19,32$ US: AmiAmi [Character & Hobby Shop] | Transformers Legends LG17 Blackarachnia(Provisional Pre-order)

Blackarachnia is a definite buy. Slipstream and Nightbird are still maybes. If they fixed the heel issue for Slipstream that Windblade had I might be more willing to bite.
Matty
Not exactly.
YoungPrime
Repaint/Remolds…. Same difference.
rosewater
Um, all three have extensive remolding. Really, look at photos. They show you things.
YoungPrime
The moral of the story is that we're so tired of CW repaints that we're willing to pay double for something different which just happens to still be repaints.
Hahaha, HasTak is the devil I swear…..

I'm excited for all three figures, but I wish they'd change Slipstream's face. She looks…pleasant. I'd rather she have more of a mean, condescending look.
Underwear
Ignorance is bliss.

Going with Slipstream. Looks really cool.
Darkstone
I figured it's a "Jumping down on my prey"-kind of pose.
Nope, it's plugged into her back, you can see the rope going down her arm to the back.
