dude, you rock, i've been wanting one but i refuse to pay the prices that those damn scalpers are asking on e-bay. I hope a lot of them get screwed now that unicron and rodimus prime are back in stock!

Hey thanks alot Im stoked I got both as well at the regular price. It's crazy people who buy these things at double cost. I've seen starting bids at 99 cents and still go up to a $120!

I was at my local TRU yesterday, and there were about A DOZEN of them on the shelf! But I still didn't buy it. It's simply not worth $60. It's ridiculously overpriced. I don't see why it should cost any more than a Leader-class figure.

They are no longer shipping these to the stores, so if your haven't gotten them yet, better order online.

I returned mine, and bought it back with the 20% facebook coupon. Take that TRU Distribution.

Now thats clever Rodimal! Take that TRU.

As far as Rodimus being more than the leaderclass figures is because he's a masterpiece fig Im pretty sure. Plus the leader class figs are geared towards kids and adults alike. Kids these days don't know Hotrod and Im sure Hasbro knew adults would be grabbing these up thus the higher price tag. I like this figure better than the takara masterpiece figure. For one he is the correct color and I was never a fan of the big bulky trailer. A sports car with a trailer always seemed dumb to me.

I caved and ordered one; I don't think they're going to get any cheaper, and I'll need a version of the mode to display in Hot Rod's car mode.

Tru mp rodimus overpriced? Are you kidding me? The takara one with the trailer goes for over 200 dollars ,and that doesn't even include the shipping. And the scalpers on ebay are asking 100 dollars for tru mp rodimus.
