Maybe because 69shot is not a worthwhile figure? So why the sudden interest?

What's your grudge against Sixshot? All he did was have multiple modes but only half of them being better than the others. But in all seriousness I'm guessing they got quite a few in stock and it was under the radar long enough most people didn't notice.

I picked him up 2 days ago from Walmart in Dyersburg, TN for $39. He wasn't even in the system yet.

After hearing times and times again how legendarily amazing 6shot was, I bought the G1 original. It was nice, but eh, I wan't impressed. A few months later, I sold it for the same price I paid so that was not a loss. Some years later and the Titant Returns version come out. I was hoping for a modern take on the figure like they did for Ultra Magnus... Instead, it's the exact same thing as the G1 but with better articulations. Exactly what most fans wanted, obviously, but it was a clear pass for me.

What I really don't like about 6shot is you have only 2 modes that are great. The bot and the spaceship. All the other modes are just afterthoughts. Same thing with RiD dragon Megatron. I also sold him for the same reason.

Uhhhh disgusting! Multichangerphobia in 2017?!?. You should be ashamed of yourself!
But in all seriousness those are comepeltley understandable claims and even I'm a little skeptical on how well some of the modes work.

Overquoting to say that ironically, I tried making a pseudo-6shot-Megatron custom... It failed horribly. I never painted it and he went back into the junk pile, never to be featured in my "lab" (see signature below). If you are curious, look at that garbage HERE.

Overquoting continues! Whoever approved your grant to make these need to revoke it immediately! Or you need a larger one..... not quite sure to be honest.

Well, those who have done this are complete moron because it's not worth it at all to do so. Especially after all the time and effort it take to build a reputation. For the record, I deal a LOT on Ebay. I have a feedback of 528. I only had trouble with sellers 2 or 3 times over 10 years. Ebay is secure asfak.

By comparison, half of the time I deal with people (with one or two posts to their name) on the BST forum on Seibertron, they genuinly try to scam me. Fortunately, Paypal got my back every times but my money is frozen for weeks every times. So I don't bother anymore.

He had good reason. Cary, Will, and I all had that happen back in November with an Iron Maiden listing. Same exact thing too: perfect feedback, lots of feedback, mailed out, seller disappeared, no one got anything

Sigh...

Well, I made a thread to report such sightings HERE.

I received that message once. I think it was for a KO Ratbat, but I don't remember if the seller's rating was high or not. The thing is I didn't get the message until after it was shipped and I had a tracking #. Lucky for me the item came with no issues.

Same thing just happened to me with a Takara Legends Blurr. I'm still giving a cooler of weeks before I make my PP claim to get my 20 bones back.

I'll have to wait until JUNE to make my PP claim.
