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.

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

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?

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

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....

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

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.

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

...not likely, lol.

Not sure how much I'd be willing to dish.
I do love that mold.

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.

I have to agree, but solely on a monetary basis.
My wallet wants to kick me in the nuts every time I look at it sideways.
