Yes! My Junkion population shall almost double…
but I don't know what I'm going to do with all those extra Sky Shadows. #-o

Dare to be stupid indeed!

Jeez, this is getting worse.... $65 for 3 Deluxes, one of which is the leftovers called Air Raid?

$40 for 2 Generations deluxes? Yup, I ordered those 2, but I want more than one Junkion... I can't justify another $40 just for one figure... hopefully I'll snag some extra elsewhere

I want Sky Shadow, but not badly enough to pay for a figure I don't want, so I'm going to wait until they start selling him individually (not a fan of Junkions/Wrek-Gar).

Are you for real?

Ordered both. Really not happy with the price but it seems like BBTS has us by the balls. HTS will certainly sell out because they never stock enough, TRU, Target, and Walmart will probably ignore this wave in favor of poopy movie toys, and Ebay sellers will charge about 30 per figure.

That's standard price for us up here in Canada. Deluxes $18.99 + tax. In fact, I'd save $1.26 if I only had to pay $20 for a deluxe.

Anyway...I might take my chances and not preorder these, since the only ones I need are the repaints. I'm hoping the retailers won't be complete idiots and ignore this wave. I guess they don't know the difference, but the G1-based stuff sells a lot better than the movie line.

Cool, let me know when you get em' and I'll buy one off of you if I haven't gotten one already (which is likely to happen since it doesn't look like they want to sell him individually)

.

I can do ebay/PayPal etc.

Thanks

I think I'm gonna wait for these guys to hit the regular retail shelves. 40 for two deluxe figures- a little steep for me......

Three posts of the same thing?? Come on man..

It's OK, I'll send him the figure featured in this review. It's incredibly rare, and even gets shipped in special packaging matching exactly the deco of the toy itself

I have no doubts I will find Sky Shadow and the Junkion at retail. Warpath, Wheeljack, and Thundercracker are showing up in good quantities around here.

I think Sky Shadow will be relatively easy to find, the Junkion on the other hand might be more difficult. I figure his generic Junkion appearance will appeal to army builders and customizers even more than Wreck-Gar did.

At last. I have been waiting for Junkion/Junkyard as a pre-order. I don't trust finding him in the stores, and I think he'll sell out online rather quickly.
