Does this come with the head for Medix?

I want him the most of all.

Also. Shhhhh! Don't announce it!!! I was hoping no one would notice so that I could take my time and save up a little...

Nah, they need more ebay listings for it to show up so they know how much to jack up the pricing for their hoard of leftovers. :michaelbay:

For real though. Never been to BotCon, and never bought exclusives until this year. If I buy this (and let's be honest; I'm a sucker for combiners, so I probably will) will I get the head for Medix? I don't completely understand how these figures work. (I do already have the Medix sticker sheet on the way.)

The description isn't conclusive. Call on Monday.

Could always find an CW First Aid and strip the paint off it.

I want the Medix stickers. I already have a kitbashed body using parts from First Aid and Ironhide. I need those green stickers!

How in the hell am I supposed to get that head? What is the damn point, even? Why offer the item if it can't even be used to its fullest extent? :BANG_HEAD:

I think TRU was selling unpainted Medix's. They're probably sold out now...

Buy a CW First Aid and paint it yourself?

It's just the First Aid head, so even if Ratchet came with it, you'd still have to paint the head to make it look like Medix anyway.

Like, red color and all? All the Medix that currently exist started with a red head?

Wow...so this is how their legacy ends????

I honestly wanted give some respect to them especially with how crappy Hascon turned out to be.

But then they do crap like this which only reminds me why I was "Meh" about them losing their license in the first place.

Good riddance!

Yeah, it's kind of sad how ridiculous the prices are, but there are some good deals still like the diaclone stuff. 4 warruders under $40, burnout and lifeticket and $30, zaptrap under $20. The club bonus figures are a good price, too, but anything botcon or tfss related is EXPENSIVE.

At this point, they really should just slash their prices on everything.

All I saw over the TCC store is garbage. Garbage everywhere. Garbage sold at literally 10 times the prices this stuff should go.
Seriously. [-(

I'm not sure I'd call them 'garbage'. However, you're one-hundred percent right that it's overpriced.

Kinda makes you wonder what the hell they were thinking when they settled on that price, especially when you consider the fact that there are $6 Titan Masters with more paint on them than that Ratchet figure. $150 for an unpainted Deluxe is a blatant ripoff.

I Understand the "exclusivity" argument, but the club is essentially dead, they really should just be slashing prices to liquidate all the stock they have left; and they do have quite a bit left.
