Not bad. If I did not have Skywarp yet, I'd grab him in a blink of an eye.

$59.95 was what Hasbro had intended.
$48.88 was the original retail price that Wal-Mart was willing to sell it for.
$30-35.00 on clearance, if you're lucky.

Did they stop making it or something? I've got a broken leg and i'm unable to drive anywhere, plus I can't convince my mother to drive all around town looking for SS. This sucks...

I think that they went on "sale" after the holiday period and I think you could thank god on your bare knees if you're still able to find one for $30.

(wink wink, I'LL PAY, I'LL PAY!)

Why is US Starscream coming down so cheap? He's one of the best molds, minus the quality issues of Takara Starscream.

His value should be way above that of Takara counterpart.

I think they will go up in price as they become more scarce.
