What's the deal with these? I've seen them in the galleries for the other classics Seekers, but have no idea when they were released or will be released. Anyone know the details on these guys?

They are Botcon '07 exclusives, you can't buy them in stores. EvilBay is your only hope and they are going for big $$$$

I have a set BTW. :grin:

Ease up from doing what?

Yeah, Botcon 2007 exclusives, all of the sets were sold out long before the convention even started. I think Thundercracker still tends to be the most expensive one, Dirge probably the cheapest as he's just a repaint of Ramjet and people are less inclined to want all the coneheads.

::laughs:: I had this sinking suspicion they'd be BotCon exclusives or something impossible to find like that. Tragic, really. Dirge in particular looks pretty nice, even if they didn't keep his original wing profile. Ah well, thanks much for filling me in.

I too am curious. Especially since I feel skywarp-2's pain. If they weren't so ludicruosly over priced, I'd buy them right away.

My Thrust, Dirge and especially Thundercracker look fantastic next to the rest of my Classics Decepticons. I didn't want to have to deal with Ebay so I decided from minute one to just buy the Botcon set and be done with it. And I'm glad I did! :grin:

As for those people that want those figures. Man, good luck on that!

How much was the boxed set at botcon anyways? Or whats the price range for botcon figures? o.O

News Credits: 4 · by **SnapTrap** » Thu Sep 06, 2007 6:36 pm

If I recall correctly it was about $300 for the boxed set and like $279 for the bagged one. I am probably wrong since I never purchased them....

Cheapest i ever saw it at was $479, as of this moment, it is usually around $250 for Thundercracker and Thrust $200 for Dirge. Every time i see one or all three on ebay, i get that bit more annoyed.
