Prices aren't awful. Let's see what BBTS comes up with.

Prices are a turn off unless they come in super awesome packaging.. I do love the idea of getting Rodimus, Wreck-gar and Kup in one swoop...come on BBTS!

[Mkall]

I knew it was gonna be pricey.

Still it's not as bad as I had hoped.

The listing on Robotkingdom.com is for "Desepticons". Mach is simply being a good journalist by remaining true to the primary source. Although traditionally one would add [sic.] after the oddball spelling.

Ok wasn't sure if it was a typo or not thanks

I've got mixed feeling on these sets. I feel that they have the potential to go crazy up like Gentei Wildrider or crazy down like Gentei Strafe. Either way... decisions will probably be made when we see final pics.

Fixed.

Never made a purchase there and these prices arn't changing that.
And I already have half of them, so there pruchase would entirely depend on how they look when pics come up.

[Rated X]

Some pics please ???

BBTS now has them listed!

That seems...mostly unreasonable.

Edit: Look, I understand the price, I understand that it's for 6 figures etc. eHobby stuff isn't even limited these days. Sets of figures should convey some kind of value added aspect.

I'm sure these will be pretty, but I think I'm going to draw the line here.

That is painfully expensive.

Price is totally ridiculous! They definitely are not gonna be rare... I noticed BBTS started with 100 units of the autobot set, 100 units of the Decepticons, and 200 of the 2 sets together... now they have upped the 2 sets together by another 200 pre-orders. Other online retailers will be getting these sets also, so everyone can price shop... no need to hurry and get these... as many of these as there are, the price is horrible!

[Blurrz]

WTF?

[Overcracker]

Yikes! almost 40 bucks a piece for deluxe figures?

That's just ridiculous.

[Jazz-1982]

I'll bet that all 3 Decepticons will look just like Megatron does here:

Could be very cool. Except for the price
