Well, TFSource has the pre order up for Exto Prime: $270. :BANG_HEAD:


So that will end my plans to pick it up.

Why would you pick TFSource for an SDCC excluisve? They will always have a crazy markup.

That said, I haven't had a chance to get my hands on the second issue of the comic yet (probably won't have the opportunity until next Wednesday), but the first issue was a great introduction to this guy, and I'm really looking forward to seeing more.

I agree, crossovers need more fresh Cybertronians who have the form of the crossover vehicle.

Prime looks fantastic! Here's hoping his price tag means he won't sell out instantly when he comes out, I really want him!

Seriously, I'm 100% with you! Though in the unlikely event that it does linger for more than an hour or so, I think it won't be the price tag so much as the number of previous uses of the MP-10 mold. I'm probably the only one who hasn't picked up some version of it yet.

One of my favorite panels!

I only own 1, and that is the SG one. I think if anything, anyone wanting this MP-10 should fear the Ghostbusters collectors and what they may have to say. I agree the previous uses of the mold may slow down the TF collectors, but not the GB ones.

And Densh, why would you even look at places besides Pulse until you for sure miss him in stock at Pulse? That markup is insane, that's $270 against an original retail of $150

Based on their mark up of similar items in the past, I’m now expecting the pulse price to be higher then we’ve heard.

I doubt it, the selling price at SDCC and from that one game shop that had orders open for like 3 minutes both sold it at $150. I doubt Pulse will be more.

Nice use of the effect parts, btw.

That's D-Maximal_Primal, Zee. You don't want to be all disrespectful, like me. ;)

Had even more fun with effects parts and the transformation of Smashdown into a Ghost Trap!

I believe all of the exclusives will be available to Canadians at Fan Expo Toronto, next weekend.

EB is working with Hasbro this year ( it's usually TRU that does the Hasbro booth), and they posted on their Facebook, showing GB Optimus.

Not sure if that means all the exclusives will be there, but they usually are. At least until they sell out that is. Last year, Throne of the Primes was gone by Saturday morning.

Question for those in the Northern Hemisphere, particularly anyone that may have picked Prime up from SDCC itself.

Does the bottom of the box have contact details (e-mail address) for both Hasbro Australia and New Zealand consumer services?

Find it incredibly baffling that a so-called SDCC exclusive would have such contact details.

For those interested in the SDCC Ghostbusters Prime, Hasbro Pulse will be having them up for order, limit 1, at $149.99 on September 4th (tentatively) with Pulse Premium members getting early access on September 3rd.

I got an email from Pulse yesterday as a Premium member with the link below showing when the various SDCC exclusives will be available.

I'll have to check other boxes then!

I found it odd that those e-mail addresses would be on the box of something that is essentially supposed to be a US exclusive. Must just be part of default things to include on packaging.

Its the same as having the Longeuil Quebec adress be the most prominant adress by default, even on toys that cant be sold in quebec.

Was it like in 2 minutes stupid fast? I jumped on the botbots set (all I was interested in) right at 12:00 eastern and it looked like the Buster Prime was either sold out or not open yet at 12:02 when I checked for my own curiosity.
