Damn!

$100 and it won't even be MISB. It'll be opened and have a gay little orange cap attatched. I guess I finally found something that I won't be purchasing at BBTS.

Damn!

Did anyone deal with BBTS for the Encore Megs? Was the plug attached with any gunk or did it just pull out?

I wonder if they'll do an MP megs in this color scheme?

Seems like the only repaint option for MP megs.

Eh, I'm happy with Masterpiece Megatron. Same cost for an older, inferior design toy doesn't do it for me.

Not Encore Megs, but I got MP Megs from them with a plug. It did have some sort of adhesive, but it was still removable with a pair of pliers and left no permanent residue behind. Just a quick twist and pull... I can't recall if I had to wipe away any rubbery glue crap or not after removal, but I do know looking at it now, you wouldn't know there was once a plug in him.

How is defacing the toy considered an "inconvenience"? Better to get it from TFSource. They don't glue them in. I got Masterpiece Megs from them and the piece popped right out and promply went into the garbage where it belongs. Why does BBTS feel the need to glue the damn things in? It makes the Hulk angry and not want to buy from them.
