A yellow Sideswipe, named Tigertrack, will be available exclusively as a mail order through Japan´s Figure King Magazine. This completes the list of Diaclone color Sideswipe variants. Unfortunatly, most people will only be able to glimpse the figure through eBay auctions like this one. Thanks to Chris from alt.toys.transformers for pointing this out.

I was on e-Hobby searching for the ´Deep Cover/ Clamp Down´ (items as reported by Ground Zero earlier) order page when I chanced upon some ´back order´ items with no images. I did a translation on babbelfish and these familiar names appeared: Thundercracker, Hoist, Trailbreaker, Red Alert, Ramjet, Thrust, etc.! On each order page, they mentioned something like "last chance to buy this item", and they´re retailing for 3,000 yen each (before tax, commission and shipping) which rougly translates to about US$24.00! Don´t let this chance pass you by if you´re searching for these! You can view their Transformers order page, here.

MIB Artfire C-108 and other rare figures on Ebay

EDIT! It has been brought to my attention that the seller of all these rare items is, in fact, the infamous ´Godraven´ using a new name. You may remember Godraven as the perpetuator of the ´black God Ginrai scam´

A truly rare find, an Artfire (a real one, not a knockoff) is on ebay. What makes this especially rare is the Buy It Now option. For a mere 500 dollars, this extremely rare Transformer can be in your home before the week is out.

Just go to Ebay and Search ´Artfire´

Also, be sure to check the seller´s other auctions. If you´ve got some extra money to spend of TFs, now would be the time to do it.
