Just got back from my local Tesco's at Chadwell Heath where sitting on the shelf they had the Cybertron Micromaster Trainbots at £2.97 each.
So Cybertron is slowly filtering through.

The
Contact Us page is now back working again. Must have been a late night coding when I wrote that, the problem was an obvious one.
Site Members - I realise that I have not moved the members area features over to Version 6 of the site yet. I've not forgotten, but my break from coding on the website was extended due to work and personal developments. I've not forgotten about it though.

Thanks to monoform for pointing out that most of the galleries in our
Prototype & Testshot area did not have their fullsize images working. This was due to a flaw in a regular expression which has now been fixed. Sorry about that folks.

e-Hobby have now replied to me with the following information:
1) K744 (Galvatron II) will ship by EMS tracking No. ********* JP and ********* JP. on January 23. shipping fee ***** yen (transacted) - so we should recevie this at the back end of this week / next week.
2)Twincast orders were already confirmed, not due until April though
3) Laser Ultra Magnus - 7 sets - confirmed order (though they have listed these down as Twincast, so I've asked for a corrected invoice).
We'll post an update when the Galvatron's arrive, and will send through Invoices to all parties at that time.

For those who pre-ordered the following toys from us, Galvatron II, Twincast, Broadcast, Laser Magnus, here is an update:-
The orders for Twincast / Broadcast (due in April) and Galvatron II were confirmed by e-Hobby a few months ago. Payment of £900 (approx) was taken from my account by Part One Ltd in the first few weeks of January, although no confimation email was sent by them. The value of the transaction matches up with that of the Galvatron II and Twincast orders.
The orders for Laser Magnus, placed on 26th December, have not been confirmed by e-Hobby. In fact I have not been able to contact them for over a month.
So where does that leave us. Well we still believe the Galvatron II orders will be sent, probably this week or next week, although they may have conbined the order with the Twincast one (as I only received 1 Kno). If so the Galvatron's
may not arrived until April / May (I'm waiting on confimation). We will not bill anyone until we receive confimation from e-Hobby that the toys have been shipped.
Regarding Laser Magnus, we are not overly confident that our order has gone through - as we have received no reply to the handful of emails we have sent. Again we will not be billing people until the toys are confirmed as being sent.
I am constantly trying to get in contact with Part One Ltd, and we will post updates when we have them on the site and / or on the message board (in the G1 section).
Thanks
Dave
