    Ooh... that is a definite must-have. The accurate head sculpt alone is worth the price of admission.

    I like the gun and head, but not a fan of the rest of Ricejumper.

    No, as that's not Japanese, and I'm not even sure it's indicative of the price. The Taobao link shows the set costing 145... something. It might be that only 300 sets will be made.

    EDIT: Parts listing confirms that, and the price of $30 USD.

    The guns and the spoiler look good. The new head is nice, but Bumblebee needs a new head more.

    The body kit sucks ass. Besides, I always saw Classics BB as the ricer.

    Okay, I really, really need to get that. I love it. (Might leave off the bumper bits, though...)

    Okay, off to check on that pre-order....

    EDIT: Hmm, okay, I think I changed my mind after I went and looked at the page in more detail. I'm not a fan of the head... the weird narrow cranium and giant nose don't look very Cliffjumper-y to me, even if the sides of the helmet look better. So I'd essentially be trading one head that doesn't look quite right for another head that doesn't look quite right. And the head is the main thing that interested me, initially. Oh well.

    Any chance we can get the gun on it's own?

    I want to pimp my Cliffjumper!

    Wait... I don't have one. But I'll get one if I can pimp it.

    I'd drop coin on that. It beats even my idea. Estimated cost if we get 10+ people?

    They had one of these sets on ebay about a month ago. I remember it being a lot more than $30 though. I think I bookmarked it....nope.

    If nothing else, it's pretty cool that you apparently get 2 alternate "faces" for Cliffjumper as well!
