    His original price was $160 plus shipping. $180 shipped isn't that bad. I only know of one site that has him, and he's $200 plus shipping. That would be TFsource.com.

    BBTS has a couple of opened reissues for sale. But one is missing Tantrum and the other is missing Rampage. :redface2:

    Wow looks like Predaking reissue is a good seller then. I wonder how much my 5 boxes of Predacon go for nowadays. Bots C8.5 and box C9. Not that I want to sell them now.

    Wow. I paid $150 about a year ago at a local shop. Glad I found it then. Good luck on the search dude!

    I sold an opened one in the fall for $150 (though it was unused and virtually untouched and TF'ed once), I was suprised I got that much considering he was opened which gives you an idea of how much he goes for.

    Man, I had no idea. They had actually gone DOWN in value for a while. Last summer it wasn't unusual to be able to find sealed ones for $115 or so. It appears the supply is drying up and they're going up in price again.

    Action-HQ doesn't sell open merchandise that I've seen. If they still carry it, it's sealed. Shipping for that honking heavy box will be a bitch from Hong Kong though.

    Resounding no on the first question; 'not too much' for the second, I think.

    I kept passing on him as I had juuust bought the last box/bubble I needed to have all five originals w/boxes and bubbles when he came out. Thought about getting one when the price went down a bit like KD mentioned, but something else always came up. Now I dunno if I'll be getting one at all if he's creeping over what he was originally.
    Ah well, not like I need two of the damn things..though it would have been cool to display the reissue loose next to the 5 boxed originals.

    I paid $80 for my open one which was in the same condition as yours. Although the box was beat to hell. AH well. Best $80 I ever spent :D  :rock  :rock  :rock

    What are you talking about? I have 3 Predakings and it's still not enough. I'd love to see a remold a la Energon combiners. You can't have enough Predakings in your collection.

    One day grasshopper, Omnibus shall host a gallery of his entire toy collection and you will see why he does not have two Predakings, let alone three. :p 
    It's getting to the point where the one extra bedroom isn't physically enough space to display everything properly. Right now, more than half of it is in the closet and that's about to collapse into a black hole.

    And I probably have to move in 4-5 months. :cry
