Pff... just an over-sized action master.

13K? Gaaah. There's probably only one or two fans in the world with that kind of money to spare. I mean, even if you HAVE that much money, you haven't got it 'to spare', really.

Good luck trying to sell THIS thing....

There is also a Bumblebee, and both look terrible, especially considering the size and price.

So they get the bright idea to go full EPIC in scale and THAT is what they decide to use for their subject???
Are...you...****ing...kidding...me???? And with a $13k price tag?

Yeah...good luck with that one guys. I've got two words for you: Market Research! It's a little concept businesses have been doing for ages now. Kind of one of those things that helps keep your investors from getting all pissed at you for making bad decisions with their money.

Quite right. Still, I somehow get the feeling this will be something they make on a per-order basis, rather than manufacturing a whole bunch and risk not selling ANY of them. I can't picture them keeping a warehouse full of these things....

[Black Bumblebee]

Hey, maybe if they DO make a bunch of them, we'll end up finding them in various Ross, TJ Maxx and Marashall discount stores lol

[Killerewok]

The fact that these exist at all means that one day, when I'm a millionaire eccentric, I can seek them out for even more absurd amounts of money. -formers or not, epic Transformers are epic.

[Burn]

Bumblebee has alien face huggers on his abs and lower back ...

[joevill]

For that price... it better transform!

If I had the money to blow these would definitely be something in my ultimate mancave. For some $13 thousand gets blown on lap dances nightly.
