You know, I was around long enough to remember when the first wave of WSTFs were released, how popular the reception for them was, the near-immediate skyrocketing popularity for Soundwave and Starscream, not to mention the chases... and yet I'm still amazed how expensive they are now. Seeing $25 for Bumblebee, and not even that newer carded one, is a bit surreal.

I used to have Bumblebee and Sideswipe. Got them for 99 cents each, to give a perspective of how early this was. I was so disappointed, just because the figures themselves couldn't do anything and promptly sold them. If Sideswipe at least had a gun, I probably would have liked him a lot more ('bee was disappointing either way due to his relative size).

Got what seems to be a bargain for Megatron, Soundwave, and Thrust, already have and love the G2 Grimlock, and now I'm wondering what to try next. Despite the past, I'll probably track down Sideswipe again, most of the other cars, whichever Prime I can get most easily, and G2 Slag. Might have to skip Starscream only because I might not find one and don't want to settle for a clear one.

Heerotoys may or may not begint to start releasing an opaque version of screamer with the show accurate null rays.

Woo-hoo! My WST Snarl showed up today! He looks so great next to Grimlock, Slag and Prime! Just waiting on my trailer for Prime to show now and I'll be all set. Got my eye on a black G2 Prime on Ebay at the moment too, so I might expand my WST just a little bit more.

Coolpop, I'm pretty sure you've got the G2 Prime I'm looking at, do you mind my asking what you paid for it? It was from Heerotoys, was it not?

Gratz on your growing WST army! Yes I got my G2 Prime+Trailer from Heerotoys for $9.99+$10 ship. He ships fast and packs very well, highly recommended. I just won auctions of WST Skywarp (solid color) & Sunstorm (solid color) from him, they should arrive next week.

Cheers,
