Fansproject Crossfire 2.0 Explorer & Munitioner sets are now in stock at ToyArena.com!

Nice. Here's hoping that BBTS gets them in soon, too.

Aye, TF Source too.

Can't wait for these guys!

What?! They're still under the preorder section.

My post was in response to the hope that BBTS get theirs soon. I wasn't trying to say TF Source had theirs in stock. To the best of my knowledge they are still pre-order items. Considering I haven't gotten any correspondence from them about shipping, it's a safe bet they don't have them yet. I knew my words were gonna confuse people, knew it!

So tempted to order a second set of these, especially with TA having the in stock now. The only thing holding me back is wondering whether TFSource will have repainted versions as their Xmas Stocking Stuffer this year. What the speculation on potential repaints?

I broke and ordered a Munitioner.... Need me some Swindle..

Just canceled my preorder from BBTS, crazydevy parts and Bruticus parts are now on their way

Yusss, I can't wait to get my hands on them both!

Got the shipping notice already with the Fedex tracking number, geez it took them 15 minutes talk about sloowwwww.



Haha

lol weird thing is i can't preorder anything at toyarena. when i try to preorder anything it just keeps sending me right back to my cart when i select the shipping method and hit continue.

I got mine too.. BOOYAH!!

Woot-Woot!

As tempting as it is I'm gonna wait for BBTS to get theirs.I have a HUGE pile of loot to ship and it just seems silly to not wait a few more days and save $10 on shipping. Besides I'm a BBTS loyalist


I'm working on getting a couple more bruticus sets..If anyone is lacking one I will try and accomodate ya

aaaaaand ordered!

Toyarena was on point last year when it came to getting the superion set MUCH earlier than BBTS....despite how anxious i am for these i think i will stick w/ the BBTS preorder. it will be nice to have the extra cash until then

Got mine today from my acquaintance in FansProject's shop. The set is just AWESOME!

PS: I looked in the back of the instruction booklet, and it seems there's going to be a third crossfire set coming. =D Classics/Energon Devastator maybe?

I want pics and I won't settle for "I don't have my camera"!!!!!!!!!

If this is true , jesus, that set is already pretty high on ebay..I can only imagine the devastator fans are gonna go nuts...

I got an email from TFSource a little while ago regarding the set, here's some of it:

Hi,

We got the call from customs yesterday that they were releasing the Crossfires. We are expecting them here by the end of the month.  Hopefully sooner!!!

Have a great weekend!

Thanks and Best Regards,
TFSource

So yeah!! They are coming soon!!

Today (friday) at 6:11pm. I really cannot wait for them.

I actually cant afford a bruticus maximus at the moment, so I am trying to possibly get them seperate. If anyone has an extra they are willing to sell for a lower price that would be amazing Also i don't need all of them just the ones to use with Explorer and Munitioner

AWWESOME. SHEER AWESOMENESS. I also CANNOT wait for Protector as Hot Rod is tied as my FAVORITE. (with Grimlock)

The 3rd set has to be Devastator/Constructicon Maximus. Has to be. There were three combiners, and now there are three Crossfire sets.

I can't wait to see what they do with him.

Oooo yus you are right. That is definately going to be amazing. But also probably a long ways away lol

Sideswipe 00 wrote:Oooo yus you are right. That is definately going to be amazing. But also probably a long ways away lol

Let's face it ..FP has come a long way since the cliffjumper upgrade.I think the other Crossfire set could be in prototype before the end of the year. I mean after CF2 they have protector then.....Nothing we have seen until this image..I won't put money on it but I say there is a strong chance.

I mean with all of the revenue they have pulled in over the past few years surely they could crank out a prototype before the end of the year? Give us all something to look at while were at Botcon in pasadena!

btw that looks so badass...

Has anyoneput this beast together with the Energon bruticus? I picked up 2 the other day for $60 and I wanna see if it looks as badass..

I'm going to keep my pre-order and wait for BBTS to get its supply. I prefer to save up some money before buying these guys.

Oooh Devastator. You know I love you baby. Apparently FansProject might love you too. This just might be uhhhmazing.

Bleargh. I want mine NOW! Actually, no, after my credit card payment goes through. :p

Where did you order it from? If you ordered early enough from ToyArena they shipped it that same day.. Actually, not long after I ordered it I got my shipping confirmation.

By credit card payment I mean I paid to my credit card to free up some credit. XD I'm waiting on BBTS like many others, and it's going to be agonizing. I could actually get it locally right now, but I have a PoL waiting at BBTS already...

I too have to wait for BBTS. I have a store credit, plus I have a building POL that I'm working with, so I have to wait for Munitioner, Explorer, and Piranicon to come in before I ship it with the TRNS-01 Valkyrie I paid for.

Sucks to wait, but I just don't have the money to blow the extra money right now.

I'll be saving $15.00 on Piranicon, and I'll only owe $40.00 something on the Crossfire sets by using the store credit.

No matter how badly I want this stuff now, I must be patient and wait.

Patience is a virtue also it's a pain in the arse lol xD

You ain't kiddin'.

does heatwave work with this since it has the same mold as onslaught?

nvm i got the answer but awesome i got tcc heatwave and energon blight so far my "Bruticus Nexus" (as i am calling him now) is def gonna look interesting xD

*EDIT*

I'll put up screenshots when i get all of them!

another edit lol*

who should i get for the other arm?

well esentially any of the energon/ROTFcombiners will work.. Use one of the ROTF combiners you didn't use..

I really would like to see the Energon group though

yeah? i was worried that if I didnt really use the correct molds the pieces of the Crossfire set wouldn't fit correctly. I was thinking on using Topspin as he has the same mold as Vortex/Stormcloud. I was trying myself to get the energon Bruticus but people just wanted to much for the set. So i so far paid $41.98 for both Heatwave and Blight MISB. So hoping to get either Vortex or my favorite Topspin for this for around $20

keep a eye on the vintage Dept for BBTS(bigbadtoystore.com) I have sen individual limbs for sale on there but they go quick and I mean vanish..

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/menu ... egory=5753

Thats where they would post em..there both sold out but they pop up from time to time... I scored a second energon bruticus on ebay for $46..Since FP delayed so long some of the prices came down a bit..the energon versions is slightly cheaper and the ROTF normally fetches around $80-100 bucks shipped..Just have to find a good auction and stick to a budget..


The other good thing about the delay is the amount of BM's there are up for sale..here is the most recent list along with some of the individual limbs

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?siteid=0&pub=5574891718&campid=5336631220&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fshop.ebay.com%2F%3F_from%3DR40%26_trksid%20...%20Categories%3C%2Fa%3E%26

Yeah which is why i am gonna stick to a budget of at most $70 all together. so I need to find one for $30; preferably for less.

You know ... the "?" may be Glaciarbot, the 100% original combiner they announced ages ago and not Devestator, which they said they wouldn't be doing.

http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-new ... er-167418/

Oooooooooooooooo that would be a definate buy of at least 2.
IF the price isnt like $200 just for one lol which could be the case.

Just looked at the pics and wow Fansproject is simply amazing. I bow before there awesomeness /bow

Heres a pic of the possible GlacialBot i found among possible others like a FP Junkion (looks like) and another warbot of some kind, along with Protector .

Warbot-Broadside. Talked With a guy at Botcon who was a FP designer, the one who thought of the license plate gimmick on CC, Said he is much larger than Defender, and he is already in the prototype stage. He will include a small non-transforming defender figure to show scale.

Junkions-3 types, Male female and Elder, Nothing Heard since then.

Glacialbots-Haven't heard a thing since the announcement, Could possibly be Crossfire 03.

Protector-Same Guy at Botcon said it would be under your Christmas Tree.

Stixx

This means the other retailers won't be too far behind in getting their own stock of these figures. Or wern't too far ahead of ToyArena.

I wonder why I've not been contacted by TFSource? I've had both Munitioner and Explorer pre-ordered from them since 3 February 2010 and I've not gotten an e-mail update from them. I checked and double-checked and both items are still showing pre-ordered with them, so my pre-order order hasn't been lost. Had you contacted TFSource prior to them contacting you with the e-mail update? If so, perhaps that's why they sent you an update e-mail.
