$470 big ones. Keep in mind this is one huge, heavy box.

In case anyone is wondering or didn't watch Bmutha's review the box is 49.7kg/110lbs. No box dimensions yet.

I also see that spec fiction has sent shipment info to DHL! It'll be interesting to see how long a 110lb box takes to get to the midwest from Singapore.

I'd expect it within a week to 10 days.

Ok, DHL has updated my estimated delivery to be here by Friday. Which seems pretty fast but I guess I did pay A LOT for shipping.

Hey gang. Got my Optimus today and boy what a treat. Good news is everything came in one piece and all the lighting works. Bad news is it took me about 3 hours to unbox and assemble alone so it's too dark out for nice pictures. Here are a couple though and yes that's a tennis ball sizing up the box. I'll have more pictures tomorrow in daylight. Enjoy!

Looks great! Love the non-robot forms they are including with these.

I would have loved if they included his trailer but the price would have gone up. That alt mode piece is 10lbs in case you're wondering.
