Interesting, yesterday there were 955 left, today, 252. They seem to be moving pretty briskly despite the controversy.

Of course, since they're pre-orders, that number could go back up again. Hell, even though I really want it, I'm actually having second thoughts about my pre-order since I already have the CC and NC sets and am getting the G3 trailer too.

I think the superion add-on set runs from $45-$50 (check BBTS) so $60 for it isn't a deal. If it's $60 for the G3 trailer then that'd be cheaper then the $80 BBTS is charging.

Magnus is going to set you back $200+ either way. It's a nice toy for $100 but $200. . .

Have you considered just buying a G3 but passing up on both the Magnus AND D.I.A.?



actually what I'm thinking of doing is just going for the CC upgrade, and buying a 2 pack with prime and UM..then getting the G3 and passing up the D.I.A. version..

In my mind, the CC is not chromed and would match my PC Prime better..

as for the G3 I think i saw a preorder for it on BTS for 79.00 so I suppose it's more expensive then i thought it was gonna be..

what i like is I'll be able to pose the 2 together, and in vehicle mode, Prime will have his trailer and armor in tow, while Magnus will have his armor in tow..

I don't think i want the nemesis version.. it just seems like a waist to have that, especially when i need to concentrate on getting the seekers and other villains...

You know...whoever gave you that advice must have been very, very, clever. I'd wager that they were very handsome and most likely charming as well.

If you've got the chops for a Prime repaint, sure, why not then. I'd like to see it if you do. Go for it.
