Do you also have WFC Optimus (the one on the left)?

I got mine at 10$ fresh off the shelves when it came out, along the rest of the Cybertronian cast! :3
Still, I feel your pain. I paid the @Ebay Premium Fee@ countless of times for older figures myself. So, the best thing to do is if you see something cool in store, GRAB IT NOW! Possible sale be damned.

Haha I feel ya! Whenever I try to find something from anything pre-Generations, it's always astronomically high. I agree though, I will always jump on the chance to get something old at a store if I see it.

With any luck, you will. At the time of DOTM, I bought 2 sealed Deluxe Universe Prowls at Sears. Still at the DOTM time, I found Universe Ultra Onslaught at 35$. I nabbed it without delay. Now Sears don't carry toys anymore.
It's all a matter of being at the right place at the right moment.
Also, try searching through local classified. You can find some crazy stuff at insane prices this way. Ask Will about it.

Yes, I got very lucky with local listings. And Kanrabat got lucky at local thrift shops himself, so you can always check there too. And funny you mention movie Bludgeon as well as WFC Optimus because it's thanks to Kanrabat here that I got movie Bludgeon and it was he who introduced me to someone who sold me WFC Optimus for a similar 10$. Actually, I will pm you because there is someone online who has the most random old stuff at whatever bid it goes away for, and that might interest you.

Oh geez. after some recent debates in the forums over gender issues, I'm really afraid to touch this...william-james88 wrote:Cobotron wrote:

Is she still the best fembot toy ever? I actually really like Animated Arcee.

but, she is deffinatly IMO the best Black Arachnia.
From a hetero-male viewpoint. mostly my own, she is the sexiest Fembot I can think of to date. That being said I would use the word sexy to describe Takara Armor Knight Prime.
I do like Ani RC, and the Gen RC is really a great toy and a nice sculpt.
Boy you really went digging Will. We DO need to breath some life back into this thread.
