Those Knights of Unicron sets will sit for months. Hasbro made a bad assumption that all Transformer collectors listen to rock music. But even if they made a set with dreadlocks, microphones and turntables, I still wouldnt buy it. The whole concept was just plain stupid no matter what kind of music you enjoy.

I would've been interested if they'd just given them the props and leather jackets, skipping the whole crazy hair thing, and just giving them straight-up G2 decos

I wouldn't say that they are worthless. They may not be worth the amount someone paid on the secondary market but they are not worthless by any means.

Agreed. It's a matter of patience vs. I-Want-It-Now vs. the uncertainty of it being widely available.

Hindsight is 20/20, but if people were willing to shell our $300 for these sets, then I would say they were worth that much.
