Love the packaging, still. I was so glad that Takara Tomy created it for this line, as it makes me think of it as a modern take of the classic Tagetmaster packaging. So these two are tempting to me. However, since I am on a budget with the start of my 2013 plans uncertain... I'll just admire them this way. That, and appreciate the AM-11 piece I currently own.

If any do such with foam forming at the corner of their mouths, I owe you a cookie. If they mention the price in some way, I owe you a brownie.

They are charging $55 for the shipping? Or do you mean $55 plus shipping for the item? Either way, I am glad that you chose to fight that feeling and get something you will like.

Robot kingdome is charging $39.90 for the figure and $15 shipping. BBTS and TFsource are charging $55 for the figure...not sure what they are charging for shipping but I'll pass.

It's great that we will have a TC in this line but I think it sucks ass that Takara chose to pair him up with IMO one of the crappiest AM's and once again no missiles for weapons. A definite hit then a miss...'nuff said!

If it is anything like my AM-11 Arcee, Priority Mail is $11-$12. Less for FedEx, but I always chose Priority Mail for all but my Fort Max preorder since I did not have the extra funds my preferred shipping.

Great... I now wish I could have preordered this from TFsource as I really like the packaging. But I have to be frugal until some point in 2013, so it is all good. .....
