Ah yes 4 more days until a go under a caffeine induced coma from all of the starbucks and Rockstar energy drink Im going to consume that morning. Last year wasn't too bad with the blaster set but the year before with the re-issue of soundwave was a nightmare. Judging by how these items are selling on eba this year is looking good, I havent seen them going for ridiculous prices except for the Gi joe Starscream, thats averaging around $100..

I think the eBay price for the Prime Deluxe prime is a joke.
asking 100$ for a 20$ item, that I believe will be the longest lasting HTS SDCC toy left.

otherwise HTS should have it as...

Deluxe Prime Prime $19.99
Ultimate Optimus $89.99
Star Scream $49.99

forget eBay prices, SDCC has become Scalper capital.
I really hope something is done about the ridiculousness of the gouging this stuff gets.

Anyone know what is different about the SDCC ultimate Optimus Prime and the regular store version other than the packaging?

I'm confused: is Unicron an SDCC toy or an upcoming store exclusive re-(re-re-re-)release?

I've heard it comes with an extra sticker sheet, not completely sure though. I think the packaging is he main draw.

Thanks for the news credit. this is awesome because it's my very first news credit here on seibertron.com.

It's always awesome when TF fans help each other out getting the desired TF toys their seeking to buy.

Unicron will be an Amazon exclusive and should be available in October.

Looks like I'm going to camp out in front of my computer so I can get what I want. Starscream will be my early b day gift. So is it safe for me to assume that the orders will be made available starting at midnight of the 26th?

If I remember correctly, Blaster and the other SDCC exclusives were up on HTS a little before 9am (eastern). I checked basically every hour (refreshing from iPhone). However, from what I've read on here, you never know with HTS. So, prepare accordingly!

For those who havent ordered from HTS before for SDCC exclusives I have to warn you about something. If you are a MISB collector I would be prepared to be disgusted, The last 2 years I have ordered from them for the SDCC excl I have receieved them in a humongous box, no packing material what so ever and the item itself was damaged. I sent my Soundwave back 3 times and received an equally damageded product twice. I'm ordering from a dealer off of ebay this year, sure it's a few more bucks but the difference is that extra cash is going towards packing material to ensure my items arrive MISB..Screw HTS

/rant

BBTS had 3 of the transformers items listed and of course all of them are sold out. Prime "Prime" was 39.99, Ultimate Op was 169.99 and the Gijoe SS was 99.99..Im paying waaaay less than that on ebay..The rush for these on the morning of the 26th is going to be quick and fast...and im sure damaged en route as well

Are these for ALL the Hasbro exclusives or just the TF's? I'm hearing from Joe guys Monday is when they're going up.

People should be checking starting on Monday if they want to keep all the bases covered.

I still have NIGTHMARES the year SDCC Alternators nemesis prime went up for sale on the HTS web site. apparently it was a huge star wars SDCC esclusive year & the star wars fans over loaded the HTS web site at 9:00 am resulting in the HTS site over loading & being shut down all day.

Apparently the trick with the HTS site when ordering SDCC exclusives on that announced day. is to use the phone number & place a phone order in.

why do they dicide to release these the day im working early? i wont have a chance at getting that starscream now. a month or so ago they said these would be released the MONDAY after the con, the 25th which i put in for specifically to buy these items, why the sudden change?

If I were you guys who want these I would start checking first thing in the morning. I have a feeling they will put them up tomorrow. Not saying deathy is wrong, I have no doubt he accurately reporting what the customer service rep told him but I've also seen emails from HTS stating Monday. Bottom line, it won't hurt to start checking tomorrow, I know I will.
