I saw this upgrade set at TFcon, the pictures don't do it justice.

Preordered without a second thought. I love the Energon combiners :D

Sweet. just pre-ordered this. Anyone know when the combiners will be released or if they're coming stateside? Only see them listed on ebay as of now. Would prefer to purchase retail or BBTS, but don't want to miss an opportunity. :D

Combiners will be available in Target and Zellers to coincide with the release of the Movie.

Does $45 sound steep to anyone else? I was expecting maybe $20, $30 tops. Also, Superion will probably retail between $30 and $35 when they're released as a box set stateside.

May I gag at this inaccuracy? Superlink, Energon and Universe. ;)

And I agree with Mkall on the single joint. Otherwise it looks quite good. Not that I'm getting it...

Wow...yeah that IS a bit more than I was expecting to have to pay for this...

I guess I'll still get it though...

I saw it...but I just report the news.

Besides, BBTS is entirely out of Superlink toys. They just don't get along with the line well.

and ordered.

It will be for the movie set if Zellers actually gets it, but if not my Energon Superion will be looking much better.

I'm sorry Fansproject, but no. I'm not willing to spend that kind of money on a set of hands and feet with a couple extras.

I support what they do, but that's just too much. Of course, that could be the usual BBTS markup. If not, then things may be as I feared, their projects will get more and more expensive. I just hope I don't end up having to spend $100 to get the Protector set.

Was really looking foward to this, but that price is FN ridiculous. . . i'll have to let that one work on me

Really guys?

I know I take a devil may care attitude about spending a lot of times as a result of my philosophy on buying...

but this really doesn't seem an unfair price to me.

I completely agree.

Not only does the kit fix almost all the problems that Superion Maximus has, but the Individual jet modes also benefit from not having those ridiculous energon weapons/combiner bits plugged on.

If FansProject somehow included a piece to address the waist issue on the combined mode then all the flaws that Superion has will be fixed.

$40 really isn't that bad. Considering their origional Cliffjumper kit was $35, and that had way less pieces than this.

I think you and I have about the same attitude when it comes to spending my friend, price seems fair.

This kit is pretty cool and does finish off the Superion combiner very nicely! However, I just don't see it in the cards for me to go out and buy the TF2 set this summer along with this add-on; too much other stuff in the pipeline. But hey, I may cave-it's happened many time in the past.

Price is up there a bit but not terribly unexpected or surprising for a custom set that serves a dual purpose.

I hate FP for being so good at what they do as does my wallet!

PRE-ORDERED!!

Now I just have to wait to buy the set this summer. LOL!!

I don't think it's too expensive. Again, we always want this stuff to be cheaper, but that is really not denting my pocket like some of the other stuff that's out there.

Oh my.. This is just way too awesome. FP keeps surprising me. I didn't expect Superion!

After seeing these up close this past weekend I know that I have to add this to my collection.

do we know if that is the actual color of the pieces or are the pics still prototypes?
