Why wait?
Congratulations Universe. You Win. I never thought I'd ever do a spit take in real life. Now I have, and clean up wasn't fun.
I figured you know, maybeeeee $1000 to start with, but no, they are starting at 2.5X backer price and go up. What a joke. Keep in mind, this is not an indictment against the toy itself, or Hasbro, just against some people's unrealistic expectations.
I've stated many times I've made peace with not having one. besides, for me personally, there are plenty of other Transformers I'd rather have for $600. I have a couple of them in fact. This toy is awesome no doubt about that. Also it is unique however.... We know there are at least 8000 in the world. To me, although convention exclusives are for the most part repaints/remolds, I'd much rather have some of them, because there are only a few hundred at most, and that's all there ever will be.
Bucket/Want List: Botcon 2016 Customization Class Ratchet (G2 Deco), or Customization Class Ratchet (Marvel Comics Deco) **would also be willing to pay for an Unpainted Botcon 2016 Ratchet, TT Legends Fortress Head (only) with working Electronics
