You should get it, it's very well done and this sounds like one of those figures which will increase in value over time.

I think it will too. I feel a lot of fans passed on this not realizing the depth of retooling involved.

I find the crossbow an awesome inclusion since Strongarm finally gets her show accurate weapon. While they come with Optimus, I feel they are better for the individual warriors. A big ass sword would have been great to have but it does add to the price.

Also to those still looking for this toy, while he is sold out everywhere, there is still also the bay of e which has him in stock at comparable bbts prices. The shipping will vary on location though: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=ba&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5336631220&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1 ... k&_sacat=0

Seeing all the lack of stock tells me the fans we aware enough of how extensive a retool it was. Every pic showed that this was practically a different toy.

Will, if you are asking about Grimlock, I would say on par with Springer/Sandstorm. they both succeed in making the same mold into an almost entirely new toy.
As for Prime, who can say yet?

I already got mine from them a couple weeks ago, I have no clue what's taking so long for the rest. They must have gotten a partial shipment.

I just find it so odd that It's been 11 days in stock and no shipping yet
