I can easily say no to this.

I thought it said Target Exclusive, not Takara Exclusive, and I got all worked up over it, but I looked closer and realized it was a Japanese exclusive :sad:

I dont know about this one. I bought a gold classics Starscream at Botcon in Orlando. The quality was very good, but you really cant transform him because the rubbing could cause wear on the gold. It scares me to snap in some parts because the layer of gold makes the pegs extra thick and I dont want it to peel by forcing them in. The figure looks great alone but very bizzare next to regular figures in a display case.

This is likely one of the KO they have been making of Lucky draw figures they have for sale. They also have a gold Starscream and they are working on crystal clear figures also. The current ones for sale are in a section called KOLD on there main page on the left side of the screen after Astroplan near the bottom.

cause with the increasingly greedy demand for market, you will have to pay $700 for the new lucky draw figures!

"Haha, and that's who you'll be from now on, Bumblebee! Goldbug!"

I had too, reading that quote made me laugh out loud and think of the video.

In any event, interesting...goldness. I don't find it too heinous a figure but it's not something i'd be all crazy about getting if I had a choice between something else. Perhaps he will just be a super exclusive something or another, i've noticed they do that a lot with golden things.

Oooh shiny!
