Featured Auction #1

Classics Rodimus

With the recently revealed "Protector" (aka Rodimus Prime) add-on set from popular 3rd party vendor FansProject, many of you might be looking to get your robo-mits on the Classic or Henkei version of Rodimus / Hot Rod in order to complete this set. Rodimus is a popular character and is demanding quite a bit on eBay right now. Check out the available auctions for Classics Rodimus on eBay by clicking here.

Featured Auctions #3 and #4

One of the rare Headmaster heads, LOAFER, is up on eBay with a BIN of $239.95, which isn't too bad considering the rarity of these unique Japanese exclusives from 1987. This item is available from eBay seller docholliday who also has a variety of other great items currently available including a MIB Go Shooter, Foam and Box for Grand Maximus, and more! Please note: this auction ends soon!

S.O..B!!!!!!! thast alot of money if hasbro did better job on there flames i buy theres but maybe bbts or tfsource will do combo package when this gets release.?

[Solrac333]

I am shocked at how high Rodimus is. Good thing I bought mine for 9 bucks.

[Naked Magnus]

Holy Crap! $100 for Henkei Rodimus!!! I really lucked out. When I bought mine, the Henkei line had just been released and the Hasbro version was actually more expensive because it was already a year old (or maybe 6 months, don't remember exactly). Hence, when I bought the Henkei version it was actually cheaper!!!! The same was true for Mirage, Jetfire, and Starscream. Wow. It just reinforces the idea that, unless you get this crap when it comes out, odds are good you will be paying many times more later.

Wow, was thinking of gettin a new one (The ball joint on the left arm/shoulder of mine is a little funky), but for $60-100... I would pass, there was even a G1 Rodimus for $79.99 on "buy it now" and i know which i'd rather spend my money on... Didn't the same thing happen with Magnus just before the release of the CC upgrade?

Yeah, when did Classics Rodimus become such a collector's item? I never even cared that much for it. Maybe I should take mine to BotCon and trade it?

I'm kind of thinking the same thing. I bought at least 1 extra Rodimus that I had sitting on my desk at work along with Astrotrain, Bumblebee and Starscream (Classics deluxe wave 1). I think I might even have another extra one of Rodimus somewhere as well. I could certainly use $60+ instead of an extra Rodimus, especially since I have the Henkei version as well.

Hmm ...

[Judge Deliberata]

Wow. And not a month ago when I traded in all my movie figurines to my local toy shop, they wouldn't take the spare Classics Rodimus I had lying around, citing they had trouble moving him when he was in stores...

Methinks I lucked out; This baby's going on EBay inside a week.
