UPDATED!: More Toy problems for OTFCC

Post by Garand »

Rumor is circulationg the borads about the supply of the OTFCC exclusive Sentinital Maximus. Rumor states that this toy will also have to be dropped.

The exclusive "Last Autobot", a repaint of RID prime in G1 Hotspot colors, was earlier dropped. OTFCC officials claim Hasbro had time issues due to the popularity of the Energon line.

No news is confirmed or denied at this time. I'll be bird-dogging this issue in the days to come.

Actually, I thought the toy looked kind of interesting. But, as it's looking like I won't be at OTFCC this year - I'd have to spend major money for it, so......

Bombshell didn't think the fandom at large would be interested.

That's not what I meant. And I can't help but think that you knew that when you decided to move the thread.

When I said that, I was saying that I don't really know who would care, since Sentinel Maximus is considered by many to be a sh*tty toy not worth buying, not that people wouldn't be interested because it wasn't news. Because it is news.

Please move it back to the News forum. Or at least make two copies of the thread and send one back to the News forum.

Thank you.

If you think enough people are likely to give a toss about this, stick it in News. You may want to wait until you get more info, though.

Good News: Sentintal Maximus will be produced

Bad News: The toy will not be ready for the con, but shipped to those who pre-ordered it, at the expense of 3H

Yikes.. since these guys split up and went their own ways, they've been running around like chickens with their heads cut off. I remembered asking OTFCC to mail out the prereg form in January since I didn't have a printer (Botcon had always been mailed out). I just now get the prereg form and it says I had to order before 4/19/04 for the exclusives.. what a shamble. Now I see about this whole figure not going to be ready? Aye aye aye..

And in other news, the Mega PVC Skywarp figure won't be available, either.

Apparently, it's due to the fac that they're "negotiating lower production numbers with Hasbro to make it more exclusive to the fan community."
