Hi guys,

Is $65 for the two HFTD leader classes both sealed in box and mint a good deal?

What are your opinions on these? Always wanted a Starscream leader but I hear mixed reviews about Prime.

They both went for $20 each at Ross until a few months ago. Starscream is a good Leader, probably the best representation of the character. That version of Prime is no better that the regular ROTF Leader Prime and has a fugly "battle damaged" face.

I haven't seen either of these at any Ross, Marshall's, or TJ Max around me. If you don't already have a RotF leader Prime and don't mind the "battle damage", I would say, yes, definitely pull the trigger on these two. These are two of the best molds from the whole movie line, which I think is saying a lot.

I routinely see them at TJ Maxx, Ross, and Marshall for $20.00. I picked up an extra in a damaged box for $10.00.

I got SS at Ross (or was it Marshalls? who knows) for $20, and I've seen Prime there too.

Of course, you might not have those stores in your area, and even if you do, they probably don't have those figures anymore.

That SS mold is really great, so I don't think $65 for both is too much to pay. Even if you pay $15 or $20 for shipping, you're getting the figures for about original retail price, and that's not bad.

If you wait, the price will only go up, so I say do it!
