Anyway, I wonder if this will actually sell well or keep its value later on when the scalpers try and re-sell it?
I doubt it. |

At the same time, with the effort they put into giving him a new head and Thrust his trademark VTOL wings, one would think they could make the slight modifications needed to make Ramjet's wings into Dirge's, rather than just a straight-up repaint.
Shame, though, because the set looks so good. But, alas, the $300 price tag wasn't in my range. |

Takara released a set of minibots as repainted gobots as hasbro secured the rights to the gobot liscence but not the actual figures when it bought tonka. |

by Blitzwing on Thursday, June 14, 2007 @ 09:43:07 PM | 1) I bought the set (only because I'm going to BotCon this year)
2) I have no plans of selling or scalping it
3) I wonder what the "mystery" figure is. I bought the Primus package, so I guess I'll find out.
I would agree that $300 is an extraordinary price. But since I'm going to BotCon anyways, it came up being worth the price. |

The $300 for going to Botcon includes the set, the secret figure, admission, etc., so it's not nearly as outrageous a price as simply ordering the figures if you can't attend. |

No kid would blow 300$ worth of allowance money on this garbage. |

I do like the Dirge, Thrust, and Thundercracker out of this set, and hopes one day to finsh my classics collection, sigh. |
