Ask people who bought it the first time around. I know I wouldn't have I've seen the thing up close and personal and looks worse in person.

BW and BM never really were popular toys with some collectors. Others love them. All depends on what turns your crank.

Longs for the days of G1 where we only had to worry about Megatron, Soundwave and Laserbeak wanting to be Autobots, Swoop calling himself Tracks and Slingshot calling himself Slingslot!

He is very large. Way taller than Primus. Although, not sure if he's 50 bucks tall.

I have him, but I paid something like $15 new. He was at a local store maybe two years back for that. He's not that bad, but compared to something like Air Attack Optimus Primal, yeah, he's a piece of junk, despite his height.

Does anyone remember how much he cost when he first came out? I am willing to bet the price BBTS is asking for the figure is not a whole lot more considering Unicron and Primus both cost about that.

It was a $40 figure that didn't go on clearance forever and then when it finally did ... it slid to just about giveaway prices. Supreme Cheetor was the first of the $40 price point figures.

I remember seeing this figure for the first time many years ago.
I laughed.
I still do.
If you could find it cheap, it might be worth having, just so that you fully appreciate how good the figures from other lines truly are.

Awesomesauce; Use it, you know you want to.

Boy am I glad I got mine for $5 when it was on clearance. He's a waste of money for anything more than that.

I love BM, I just think a Supreme for Cheetor was a waste. Now if they would've done a Supreme Megabolt Megatron, I'd have been all over it.

And liking one doesn't necessarily mean liking the other... I was very fond of Beast Wars, but a little less fond of Beast Machines, for example. The vehicons were generally good toys, but the Maximals weren't so great,

He's bigger than any other TF except Fort Max. Of course, since most versions of BM Cheetor fall down a lot, this is probably not a good thing.

Fangirls who orgasms at the name of Cheetor. Those are who would be willing enough to part with 50 dollars for it. XP
