Perty. I am a sucker for clear makes, and black repaints.

Not sure if it is supposed to be the ghost of Prime or what, but I imagine we'll be seeing a similar Starscream at some point.

Dayum that's fine lookin'.

Shame I'll never be able to own one, but I guess four other classics Primes should do me fine...

I suppose only G1 Starscream and Mirage could get away with a clear exclusive. Also Armarda Prime as well.

Wow, that is alot nicer than I thought it would be. I was expecting a clear white version. Glad to be wrong, this one is beautiful.

I want one. Hope I can afford it after the markup.

Oh, well fuck me, he's pretty!
I may just have to break my "no buying shit till debt is paid down" rule regarding him. So, 3500yen, 35$ without markup or shipping...any idea what he'd be with markup at BBTS?

Love it.

That is going to end up being one expensive figure when it's released.

I think it depends on your poiint of view on expensive.

If you are smart about it, and don't wait, you can probably get it for a pretty fair price. If you wait, it will go up. I'm thinking of the Binaltech Mirage (liger) that was clear and originally had pre-orders up for $90, and then when they were sold out and then put back up were near $200.

Actually, I would like to see them make Fire Convoy from this, you know orange transluecents, orange solids, and deep red solids.... :shock:

I don't think I can afford 90$ for this guy...

I'm thinking he's going to be alot harder to get than Mirage. Then again they might have a ton at the convention. Maybe Wonderfest Arcee prices?

What I said, at Botcon they started at $100, and ended at about $70. Online they had previously only been available for around $125.

My bad, I had missed the part where you talked about the pre-order price, which is what I was getting at. But wasn't there a larger production run for him?

In any case I'm expecting him to be in the $120 range like Arcee. She dipped to $80 at Botcon, but I haven't seen her cheaper anywhere else.

Guess I'll have to wait till BotCon 09 to get one.
I can't justify dropping 120 on him, no matter how pretty he is.

If you can't afford the opening price, wait a bit, you never know what could fall in your lap.

Geekee, never a problem, never.

I think we might have had our prices and bots mixed, or maybe I did.

If you're real crafty you can get an Arcee for $60. But it requires a Counterpunch and 3 Japanese Energon weapons.

If you can get that mix you may be able to score a Prime for an awesome price too!

I knew someone would have too :grin:

But back to candy Prime, what are price estimates on this thing - what, $100US to get one? more?

God, I'm so sick of exclusive Transformers, I really am.

Re: More Photos - e-Hobby Clear Henkei Convoy (707268)
Posted by Stormrider on May 24th, 2008 @ 7:06am CDT

Yeah, I think this is going to be difficult figure to get just like Arcee. I am sure that it will be accessable through eBay though.

I have to agree, but solely on a monetary basis.
