    Robotkingdom has him listed for $59.90 so I imagine it'll be around that if it's made available here. I was hoping for a $40-$50 at most price tag too. Still I'm may go for this guy, just because I'm a Magnus fan.

    It's currently available through Robotkingdom if your willing to pay and wait for airmail. With BBTS offering the platinum Omega Supreme currently I'm hoping they'll be offering this guy too in the near future.

    I believe it was stated earlier in the thread that the pics where taken from Robotkingdom.

    I also agree with what many have said those red hands look pretty atrocious. I'll probably wind up dyeing them or painting them. One of my biggest turn-offs with the weaponizer prime was the hollow legs and back kibble. From what I've see the back kibble looks better IMO with the grill making up a significant portion of the kibble. Also IMO $60 is pretty high considering that Omega goes for about $100 and is a remold of a much more expensive product than the weaponizer prime. Still as I stated earlier as a Magnus fan I'll probably pick this guy up despite all that.

    Here's a video review of him if anybody's interested so they can get a better view of the figure.

    Thought I'd bump this thread to let anyone whose interested know that ToyArena has this guy in, but the price is $89.99 plus $12.77 for shipping. It's too bad he's so high priced it's hard to justify picking up this guy despite how much I'd like to get him.

    The placard at Botcon listed this as a July release, so I think it is coming but just not sure which retailer will sell it.

    I'd expect Amazon like the first two releases. Maybe TRU since they sometimes carry the big ticket items.
