Anyone know if this one is still out? I went to costco today and wasn't able to find it. I have 2 MISB galaxy force OPs, and I was planning to open one until I heard about this release, and I haven't been able to check Costco until now, and I can't find him. Is he worth searching other costco's (far away) or getting off e-bay? more specifically, is crumplezone worth it, since the whole thing is only $35 I think, since I already have OP?
Thanks a lot.

You should have no problem finding someone to go splitsies with on that 2-pack since you want the Crumplezone and not GF OP. But if you're getting it for $35, heck yeah dive right in.
As to how good the fig is, I like to consult
this, though mostly for pics and description, not for the rating system (it's too geared towards his personal taste imho).

While he's not too bad, Crumplezone is just not something I would go out of my way to find.
I picked him up on clearance. And have to say, even though he's of good size, he leaves quite a bit to be desired.
He could very well pass for a cybertronian mode Animated Bulkhead. Even has the under-bite, and protruding teeth, to go with the green color scheme. Though the white sections off set that a bit.
His attack mode, really adds very little to the toy.
robot mode is very gorilla like with very long arms and very short legs.
I really would not pay 35 bucks just for him. If you can split the cost, say someone pays 20 for GF Prime and you pay 15 for Crumpy, then its not too bad.
Still one of the lesser molds from Cybertron.
