Guuuh! Overpriced TT only molds are beginning to get under my skin. Pre-ordered, like a schmuck.

I don't get it either. What's so hard about this?
Phase one: design toys
Phase two: release toys
Phase three: profit

Phase one is the hard part, why stop there? They must be following the Underpants Gnomes business model.

I found a seller on ebay that is selling Jet Vehicon for only 35.99 with free shipping. A quick search will lead you to a decent deal!

Yea he did. I think i love and hate whenever he does that, cause he always hints at spoilers he knows and i love to hear spoilers, but he never says the full spoiler. Which is considerate for those who don't want to hear it of course, but i'm always like raaaarrsh :sad: :BOOM:

Yes. I just checked my Bulkhead and it says
(C)2011 Hasbro
(C) Tomy


Honestly, I was expecting this one to be Japan exclusive, so I preordered. Only one, though, I'll probably get one or two more down the road. Sadly, this means I'll be getting this guy before I see ANY regular Vehicons, as I still have had no luck with that. I need that wave 4 revision assortment to hit fast.


Ah, thanks for checking :)

That's not really any better than anywhere else. It'd be great if I had a big order to make with them. Otherwise single orders with them are never really cost effective.

Although I can't find my figure to confirm but I believe Masterpiece Rodimus Prime had only a Takara stamp on it and when Hasbro released it they just put a paint stamp under the Takara one.
