I've seen em on ebay b4. They're pretty big.
That one has a nice box, I wonder if all the pieces are there.
I've seen them sell from 45-80 dollars.

I've seen it before as well. It doesn't do much for me through. Looks like a generic playset with the TF logo. I don't think I'm missing anything special about it either. If something that size was any good, it would be selling for a hell of a lot more than the 50 bucks it generally goes for.

Does it come with little TF's or is it for normal TF's? I can't quite tell.

I don't think it comes with any. From the pic it looks like the kid is playing with a Grimlock, Slag and Soundwave.

Which isn't bad, considering a lot of my TF playsets as a child were 100% cereal box.

ROFL, so true. Man, the cereal boxes made awesome cities. And even better than a playset, you could BURN them!! I was fortunate that my bedroom had its own little balcony facing the back of the house. Must have been about 10*10 feet. More than enough space and privacy o get away with a burning city.
Those were the days!

its made by the same company who also produced the cardboard gobots bases and the cardboard star wars scenes...like the death star. I am also assuming its the same company who produced the 82 sears exclusive COBRA HQ set for GI Joe

I'll bet it did. Whereas I didn't like playing with anyone else except my brother. I don't really know why.

Is that the S.T.A.R.S. playset from 1986 mail-away?

Nope. This is the Warren Activity Center from 1985.
