135$ shipped? Where? All I can see is 150$ shipped at the bare minimum.

Thanks! Now, let's hope one will remain until I get paid... in a week and a half.

EDIT:
Wait a minute. Yours is 135$ + 30$ of shipping. That's 10$+ more expensive than the one I'm watching right now.

Mine says $134.95 US and free shipping Worldwide?

Nope. You misread. It clearly say that the shipping is free only within continental US. As friggin always.

My Canadian bacon will be slapped with a 30$ shipping fee. Plus another 20-25$ in custom fees because the thing come from the USA and is worth more than 100$.

Naaaaah, I'll stay with my Chinese dude.

Go to eBay and search transformers Artfire. Next select price and shipping lowest first with the sort drop down box. Last scroll down till you see the first New Artfire. What price shipped do you come up with than?

Dude, I was searching for "price+shipping --lowest first--" on Ebay before it was cool.

Well, it look like the is ONE who is 7$ cheaper than the one I watch. It's a OPEN one from the USA. Will I risk being custom-raep for a cheaper initial price and --maybe-- a faster shipping time? Hmmmm probably.....not... We will see if it's still there in a week and a half. AND if there's a cheaper one who could pop out since then.

Just got off work, and decided to go by the TF section in the toy department on the way out. It was totally empty except for 1 Weaponizer Bumblebee and FoC Grimlock. Of course, I picked up Grimlock. I've been looking for him for a couple of weeks.

Wow, to be totally empty with the exception of the one I'm hunting down. Nice grab!

I know, right? My jaw actually dropped when I saw it.

A new addition to the growing hoards, please welcome...

Transformers United Rumble!


This is my first United figure, bought for the small sum of £15 via Ebay!
Not a bad little take on Soundwaves lil buddy, I can even deal with the claw feet too!!

I recently got a Kre-o Warpath and a FOC Starscream. It's been so long since I've bought any toys it felt strange to get them.

Finally found Breacher! Can't beleive how awesome he is! Not a bad $5 find, not bad at all. Top notch transformation, great quality and detail.

Blechh...paid for a vintage MIB Shockwave last week, waited patiently all week for it to arrived and opened the box to find a knock-off.

Anybody had to deal with Ebay Buyer Protection before? Good experience or bad experience?

How'd you realize it was a KO?

My local Winners have some Kreos on duper clearance today.

That big Bumblebee set for 8$. That Starscream set for 9$. So I bought two of each.

For now, I'll open a Bee and a Screamer to build them, but I dont think the others will be kept sealed for long.

Very good the couple times I needed to use it.

Compared it to the vintage one I already have (bought it cuz the box looked incredible and seller said his mom had stored it away all these years) and came across a thread on TFW2005 that detailed the differences (but missed quite a few). I'd be glad to detail them if you'd like.

I don't have plans to pick up a G1 Shockwave anytime soon, but other members might appreciate it. It's good that you picked out the differences, best of luck with getting it fixed!

I got a brand new KO G1 Shockwave that was advertised as a "reissue" 2 years ago. His only fault is the rubber hose splittedquickly and I ham-handed the tab of the battery cover. Other than that, it as great as any high quality 3rd party figures and is worth the 90$ shipped I paid for.

I too, would like to know the differences between the original and the KO.
