Fansproject's not-Swindle and not-Blast-off sell for about $50.00/$60.00 each and both of them were Scout Class size. However, with the additional pieces that came with each one, that might have bumped them up into a Deluxe Class category.

Taking that into account, it's possible each one of these Third Party not-Constructicons could cost about $75.00/$100.00 each. Once this is all said and done and all six not-Constructicons are finished and set up for pre-order, I'll be surprised if a complete set of six sells for less than $750.00. And I haven't even calculated shipping by the time these are completed. So you could be looking at about $1000.00 price tag when you get the bill.

If they space em out to at least 2 months between each, it'll be way easier to handle. When it all comes out together, people snatch em up and your screwed for getting one, so... hopefully.

I'd rather they sell them as a complete set. If they sell them one at a time, 2 months a part, you stand a greater chance of not getting one of them. You know there would be that one jerk out there that would buy up all the not-Scrappers. That same jerk would then try to sell each one of his not-Scrappers for the price of a complete set, knowing that there are those of us that have the other 5 not-Constructicons, but unable to stand not-Devastator up because all of its right legs are sold out. And we'd pay that price that jerk is selling them for just so we could stand up our not-Devastator, the crown jewel of all our Transformers collections.

God I hate those people so much, its why its so hard for me to find good retail hasbro figures around here, grr. But whatever, I just get wasted and forget that I spent an entire week looking for them.

For my own selfish impatient reasons I would love for it to come out as one big set, but I realize the price tag would just be too much for a lot collectors. I'm curious how far along they are in this project and how close we are to seeing preorders.
