There is what looks like a custom Thrust in the pic. Read what he wrote about it in the description. I believe it's #6.

If he paid $100 to get that very poorly painted seeker done (I'm not convinced that's Thrust), then he got ripped off bad. That "Thrust" looks awful.

wow, I didn't realize how 'rare', 'very rare' & 'hard to find' Classics are, especially loose ones

Actually Starscream has become sorta rare, His going price on Ebay is skyrocketing as well. The rest though are still fairly easy to come by obviously.

hehhehheh-

Why does an auction of "rare" classics not include grimlock, as the only rare classic i woulda thought he'd be there!

I finally go tmy grimlock last week-soooooooo much waiting, but i have all the classics now.

I think it must be really "RARE"!

I think in this case, the seller has mistaken the word "rare" for:

Readily
Available at
Retail
Everywhere.

If Starscream is rare, then the twenty that sit in pretty much all my locals don't exitst, right?

That means I can just walk out of the store with them and not pay, cos technically the figure is so rare that it doesn't exist here? :-?


None of those are rare. He's probably just hoping that some parent that wants to get their child a gift will snap it up.

Still, at $56 (?) it may be worth it. If I didn't already own them all.
