Just the other day I was at Wal Mart, and I saw a Alternators Sunstreaker. I didn't pick him up. So, Is he rare? How much is he worth?

Probably about twenty bucks, plus tax.

I wouldn't say he is rare at all. I still see him on the shelves every now and again.

Now if you scored an Alt Mirage at Meijer for $18.01 a couple of weeks ago like me, then you would be pimping

He's worth the 20 bucks though, if you like Alts.

Yeah, Sunstreaker is def worth $20.

Oh, I thought he was super rare like the 1st release of Meister. Thanks for all of your input. I might get him tomm.

He is rare if you do not live in the US, but otherwise is fairly common and easy to come by.

The dodge mould is nice, I have his "counterpart" Dead End, and couldnt be happier. The Yellow plastic is said to be not of the best quality, but the actual mold is pretty nice overall.

I was fortunate enough to find everyone of these in retail.It took a lot of searching but I didn't have to pay high prices at a online store.

I saw Camshaft and Swerve once each and bought them when I saw them, and have never seen them again.

I also bought Meister in the white package because I missed him in the red, thinking he was still going to be rare. Then I got Shockwave and liked him a lot better. Now I see people clamoring for Meister but I can't get rid of mine.

1. camshaft
2. rumble

I love all the Alternators. Personally I'm missing Swerve and Nemesis Prime (Although after last year's garbage with Hasbro Toy Shop I don't count him as part of the collection). Now I just have to find Rumble and Ravage and one day maybe I'll get Swerve.

Back to the topic, get Sunstreaker especially if you don't have Dead End. The Viper Mold is great.
