    special edition overkill is pretty close to the same, you might as well just get that and a grimlock if you want to parts swap, or just paint a grimlock

    Looks like they've added another one in stock. This time the price has doubled to $600. They've also removed the picture of the fully assembled figure. I wonder why they doubled the price, when they could have gotten the same price the first time.

    More importantly, I hope there isn't a knockoff source of these now.

    Don't you have to paint the autobot symbol on though. I could've swore I read they helped you paint on the logo at the class.

    If the kit is on the sprues, it'd probably be even easier to KO...

    indeed you could make a cast of the sprue and just make a mould from that.

    Also $600 that's mad I'm often all for high prices for low volume toys that's just the nature of how it works but $600 for not a toy but for the parts to make a toy with no instructions... and I get the feeling even if I did put it together I'd of just pissed away my money
