BTW what is the TRU Fire God Convoy Gift Set from Japan worth?
I didn't even know this beast existed!

Easily $300. It's got the Omega Blade, the toys are partly transparent plastic, and it's exclusive. Definitely on my want list.

I saw one go for 500 on ebay about 2 months ago.

I got Magnus first. He was the one RiD toy that I had to buy, after seeing the proto pics online and getting all the info about car robots when it was first announced. Eventually got Op a long time after, when I had some gift-vouchers to spare and did TRU a favour by taking the 2-3 years old toy off their shelves. After it was half-price of course.

Both individual robots are great, and they combine into a really brilliant bot too. The translucent gift-set with the huge sword looks pretty cool too, but no way I'd ever pay so much...unless I was rich.

Magnus is definately the best. One of my fave TFs ever just for his looks. The shiny grill on the truck actually has me mesmerized sometimes. The variety in Optimus is pretty good too, he looks good in a number of configurations, but I'll admit I am partial to the standard robot, even if he does look like Blaster to me more than Prime.
