Now I'm really upset for paying full price for this last year

Why? It's a solid figure and you helped the brand by buying it at retail cost. He cost a lot more than $40 to produce so they're taking a loss sending out t the remainder of their inventory to small chains to get rid of their inventory. He cost I don't even know what an Ollies is and where the chain is located so I'm not sad I got him when he came out. I just took him off the shelf last night played around with him.
Do you even have a Ollies near you, if so go out and buy them up then sell them on eBay for $60-80 and you'll make a profit and your "loss" for buying Max a year ago.

It seems very cheap for that much plastic but it's just not in any sort of shape or form that I'd want to buy it in.

a shame that the nearest Ollie's to me is over 100 miles away

The most interesting thing I've ever found at Ollies was when they had cases after cases of Gen Roadbusters sitting around (after I'd already bought a "cheap" one online and then found it in several other stores...). Beyond that just the rts-less repacks of the legends from that line. If I had the slightest luck in finding stuff, I get over to Ollies stat, but I know I'll never have that kinda luck.

Damn. I'd actually buy one at that price. Sadly, it's not worth a 2 hour round trip to the nearest store.

I only bought two at my store, but you can bet there will be a lot of folks who buy them to resell. If you don't have one in your area, this would be a good time to check ebay for those who plan on buying them for quick turn around cash.

Not sure the profit is worth it. Even if you sell for 100, that's 40 COGS + 10 ebay fee + 10? shipping. Even in that ideal scenario were talking $40 profit and I didn't consider taxes, other expenses, bad buyer, etc.

If anyone wants to do me a solid. 
Havnt picked up a transformer for months since wife's health problems but she saw this and said if I could work it out with someone she'd be fine with it.
Besides that, what does this mean for the future of titan class figs?

As I knew, my Ollies had jack squat. No transformers at all, least of all FM. There's an hour out of my life (thanks solely to traffic, normally it'd be 15-20 mins) I'm never getting back.

Just got mine at Maryville TN Ollies. They have 9 or 10 left.
No idea where I'm putting mine.
(I called before making the trip.)

I'd say it's worth it just for Cerebros.

This.
Cerebros was basically the only thing that was really worth it in the set. I felt good about paying $100 for the toy, mainly for Cerebros
