Has anyone received the Ames A/P Transformer yet?

I am curious how the chrome and gold look in person and also if they are signed and numbered. Mine shows that it is shipping today, so I will know how they look after work today....hopefully.

    Yes, please post pictures when you get them. I will do the same. I only bought the chrome, no gold, but excited to see how it looks in person.

    picture please! Mine says on the truck for delivery but they adjusted the ship day until tomorrow. My guess is it will be at the house when I get home.

    Anyone have a chrome to sell/trade hit me up

    Pictures are coming. Slightly disappointed. The poster arrived with a few noticeable creases along the right side. Should frame out for the most part, but I definitely couldn't sell this as mint if I wanted to. Another strike against Ames in my book lately...

    I like it. I also like that it is numbered. This will be more rare than the gold correct?

    Yes, I believe Gold will only be signed and not numbered. There will likely end up being more Golds than Chrome

    you should message Ames. It happened to me years ago where they had me mail it back, they tore it up, and sent me a new one and just numbered it again. They usually print a few extras expecting this to occur

    That stinks. Hoping they replace it for you.

    I think its especially noticeable due to the metallic nature of the paper too

    uh oh, what about all of those angry gold customers? I guess they printed a lot, so I am sure they could replace the gold edition. :jack_o_lantern:
