Is that a picture of toys in a refridgerator? Doesn't the shelf it's on look like a fridge shelf?

I'm so glad I don't want either of those

Even I have to say wow to that one. That's somebody who just didn't care what they paid for it. That person was going to buy that set no matter what.

I am currently aware of this type of thinking in me. At least that's almost over. I'm so glad I bought these guys at the con. Still my favorite set!

You may not want them, but you sure as hell need them.

...and when you need something, that is a responsibility.

I believe this is a new high for the set and it may just be an anomoly but interesting nonetheless

Sincerely I doubt that this auction will be a one-of-a-kind thing. This set doesn't show up on e-bay that often, and there are a lot of hungry collectors ready to chew on the same t-bone. Now that collectors know someone has paid nearly $1,500 for it, there's going to be somebody in the future who is willing to pay more to trump everyone else.

I have no problem with your editorial decision.

Why am I still in the cold on receiving said brochure? I meet or exceed the standard requirements other than NMPT. Transformers sub-culture elitists! The lot of ya! :grin:

Good Sir,

Please reference the picture below:

As you can see, this is a close knit circle of douchebaggery. There are only 4-5 hundred spots on the team depending on the destructive tendencies of Japanese children. Should you decide to pursue this course of acquisition, you should know that tales of harrowing adventures to attain said figure are also required.

For instance, I personally fought off a pack of wild dogs while scooping lava from an active volcano in Japan in order to balance a peculiar set of scales located in the only Scientologist "Church" in Communist China where my particular Noisemaze Production Type was kept.

Now, I know very well that, none, of that is true.

But I believe it.

and so did the Police.

I'll have you know that I'm stealing all of your monocles @ Botcon and replacing them with badgers... or something equally unpleasant. :twisted:

We don't need no stinking badgers!

News Credits: 609 · Tue Feb 02, 2010 11:14 am

This price stuns me. I have a sneaky feeling some shill bidding was going on. Maybe the seller got a message from the high bidder with some tales of desperation, and the seller exploited it.

Don't know. Hope this isn't my fate as well. Games of Deception is selling for less, give or take, so this worries me a bit.

At least I got a Ratchet for cheap ;-)

Are the TAW God Swords equally unpleasant? They look decent. I don't need em but decent. Oh, and short answer is no. Badgers is what they'll get despite not needing any steenking badgers.
