the thing is you have to grab your ankles to get it:
$300 @ TFSource
http://www.tfsource.com/products/view/product_id/673/I know, they're free to price it any way they like. That's how supply and demand goes.
I'm just as free to point out that they now use their site for price gouging where before it was just eBay. But hey, at least they're avoiding the eBay fees.

Yeah, but if you go ahead and order Nemesis Prime with it you save a whopping $5.95.............................that's a savings of almost $6.00!

That F'n blows! I was hoping that they were going to restock him since their one email said they were getting out of stock FP items. I thought that it would be cheaper than ebay, but it's actually $50 more than what I've seen it go for recently. Dildos.

Don't hate the playa, hate the game!
Sometimes, in this hobby, you snooze you lose. I don't regret passing on Shadow Commander myself ... good 'ol City Commander's good enough for me.
Wanted:
City Commander's head (KO or original)
Henkei Hot Rod's bio card
Universe Ironhide / Ratchet's gun/blade attachment

I do hate that I passed this up when I had the chance to buy, but That is too rich for my blood. I do understand the whole "supply and demand' business, but I still fell like that is rape..........and with no KY or nothing.....

Ummm... yeah, I know the game just fine. That still doesn't make this particular piece a good buy.

Ain't worth it. If you really want Shadow Commander just keep checking B/S/T lists on your favorite TF sites. I got Shadow Commander with Nemesis Prime for $170 shipped. No knock-off.
PM me if you have Battle Tanker original head and/or Car Robots Black Convoy sword(pointy version) for sale

Scored him at botcon this past year..$120.. The guy had 6 of them and sold em in 5 minutes.I picked up a nmmey prime for 35 MISB. A month or so ago BBTS had loose lots of FP parts for the all of the commander sets.. I bought 3 of them..Not enough parts to make a full set but it makes for excellent custom fodder.
