Does TT seriously justify a $150 price tag on a $75 toy just for a leather case??
I was excited to hear about this release, but now... I may well have to wait for Sixshot to go to clearance. The only G1 reissue worth $150 is Fort Max.

It's not TakaraTomy's fault, but the weak Yen against the Dollar. Normally it should be roughly 100 Yen for 1 Dollar.

Ill just wait for Hexagon.
As far as Sunstorm, it's nice to see they got the colors right this time. But Sunstorm is already last years hype. As far as Im concerned, 3rd parties "own" Sunstorm.

Plus, I despise the act of piecemealing out a complete figure just so you can squeeze a few more bucks out of it. Nobody looking for say a complete BW original Rattrap should have to go through the trouble of having to buying 10 separate auctions just to get the whole figure. This isn't a **** G1 gestalt like Menasor or even Monstructor! This is mother **** Rattrap! Nobody will/should have to buy "Rattrap's right foot", "Rattrap's left foot", "Rattrap's right leg", "Rattrap's left leg", "Rattrap's right arm", etc. etc. etc. FFFFFF! I hate that practice and I hate Wheeljack's Lab!

If TTakara say that the majority of their business is the adult collectors then 1000 is nothing, why even bother! By the time importers etc get a cut of the 1000 that's not much left for the punters in Japan.
Both Has and TT really seem to know how to piss off their fans.
