He says it's complete, but I must have missed the Radio Shack (Spychangers)Prime, BB and Barricade. They do transform and are remote controlled. The collection is priced a little high for me.

Now that is just asinine. These auctions are getting rediculous.

The guy is stooooopid! ... he's so stoooopid!

Seriously even with all the exclusives that collection is worth no more than 25,000 bucks.

Hope there's no one dumb enough to buy that.

He has to pay for all that AFA grading, which is the worst BS in the world. AFA can go to hell.

Hmmm, the movie is only three years old. Would it really be that hard to rebuild his collection for way less than that overblown asking price?

I don't get it. I even think 25k is a bit much. Gonna watch this simply out of curiosity. I'm almost betting if anyone does bid...he'll probably get screwed on payment.

Seriously? A million?

Hmmm.... 150+ Transformers for only $1,000,000... That's a very reasonable $66,666 per Transformer :lol: And they are AFA READY: the sending to AFA is something you can do yourself once you've received the collection. He only actually mentions one single AFA'd Transformer in this collection: Battle Damage Optimus Prime...

I wonder what this person was smoking when he listed this auction.

Are there people who are dumb enough, rich enough, willing to blow that much on ebay *and* love TFs? I think not!

LOL he says watch the value go UP UP UP! Yeah, maybe. If you can sit back for a few hundred years you may make a profit.

Five to six thousand for a TF :lol: So people think $25,000 is reasonable? A lot of those are only $10 or less figures. I'd say $10,000 is pushing it. Maybe if I could be bothered to work through the list I'd come out lower.

I couldn't agree more with you on that one. A toy gets AFA graded and suddenly the price is up almost 50% in some cases. F*** that.

After seeing this one, I would rather purchase the 2 bedroom apartment one. At least that guy has not only bayformers. Apparently this guy is drunk or just think everybody in the world is idiot.

I've got nearly all of those figures, and I'd be surprised if they're worth more than $5K.

I'm missing:
*Metallic-painted deluxe Gold Bumblebee ('77 Camaro) Lawson*
*Deluxe Optimus Prime protoform in clear blue*
*Arcee (Pink and White) Wonderfest*

*Starscream Vardia Red Model (Toshiba)*

*Trans-Scanning*
*Bumblebee*
*Optimus Prime*

DVD Exclusive Legends
*Metallic Legends Bumblebee (Tsutaya Records)*

*Deluxe Japan Bumblebee with translucent windows*
*Regular Japan Landmine with rubber wheels*
*Nightwatch Optimus Prime UK with black markings not all spark colors*
*Black Incinerator*
*MA-21 Japan battle mode Optimus Prime (premium series)*

Which is maybe $600-$800 worth of figures.

Razorclaw, I didn't see the overpriced, dirty repaints of Skids and Mudflap on your list of "don't have's". Did CP finally give you enough crap about it to make you go get them?

They are not AFA graded. They are only AFA "READY" which means you can send them yourself when you get the lot.
Only one is AFA graded which as someone already said is BS.

So Maybe I was too generous with 25K. Still nowhere near 1 million.

Again Stooooooopid.

Nah, this was just '07 movie figures. I'm missing several crazy JROTF exclusives like the Lawson Desert Skids & Mudflap.

I have some poop on a stick. Anyone got a couple 100k for it? I'll also throw in some rare error carded toys that no-one gives 2 poops on a stick about, just to sweeten the deal!

No, but I'm tempted to ask for a shipping quote for a laugh...

I realize that this dude may be a douche bag, but I certainly won't call him stupid. It isn't costing him anything to post the listing, so why not ask an outrageous amount of money for the collection? You never know when some dipshit will come around and give the asking price. Since he most likely doesn't NEED the money, he can probably sit on that price for as long as he wants.
