Not as good as a deal as the Cerebros but I got the G1 Star Sable/Victory Leo giftset for $125 a few years ago. Complete and awesome shape.
Nothing earth-shatteringly cheap like some of the craziness I've been reading here, but for me: I was in Hong Kong last October, snagged a new MP Megatron for about $66 (the Canadian dollar was kicking ass at the time) despite the fact I had no luggage space...he ended up as my carry-on. Lady was nice enough to even open it up for me on the spot so I could inspect it. I'm not a MISB collector, plus I figured it couldn't stay sealed on the flight home. Another one: while not dirt cheap, this was when everyone was going nuts looking for the Wheelie/Warpath/Rodimus/Cosmos wave of Universe Legends. Found a bin of 'em for $4 each [so not really a great 'deal' as it was an awesome find] I did post it on the cybertron.ca sightings forum (pay it forward, right?). A week or so later I thought about grabbing some doubles, so I went back...all gone. Oh well
Classics Ultra Magnus vs Skywarp $3.50 Hasbro Masterpiece Skywarp $7.00 Cancelled Universe Space Warp with Cancelled Space Minicons $49.99 Space Warp I found at a toy store in a local mall in December of last year complete with all the Minicons. They thought it was Club Astrotrain without his box. Randy
Holy crap! That's one of my grails! I love that mold and that paint scheme. Would you take $60? What store is this?!? And how did they get it? I'm super curious...
I haven't gotten many big deals, largely because I don't shop for too many highly priced items. The biggest one I can think of (relative to retail price) was ROTF Superion on clearance for $7.
$60 doesn't quite reach the $1,000 someone offered me already. This was at the Toy Vault, and he was just sitting there. They thought he was Astrotrain. Randy
Damn you lucky bastards that found MP Skywarp for $10! My Walmart has them for 30. Hoping they go down more before they sell out. I already have one but another one for $10 would be cool. Best deal for me, complete G1 Jetfire off Ebay for 30 bucks.
Well, darn, it was worth a shot. Is it this place: New and Vintage Toys at The Toy Vault Inc. I'm still very curious as to how they got a test shot (or whatever) and didn't realize it. Worth looking into...maybe they'll get more!
leader megs and classics cheetor for 30. both on sale at some store in ohio. megs was 25 cheetor was 5
I'm not sure but they also had a Energon Scorponok with a white and pink Cybertron Scorponok tail (just like we saw years ago when it was first revealed - the Allspark and Seibertron have photos) and a Dark Scorponok with green parts (like the back of the box) instead of gold and gray parts intead of copper (plus a red Decepticon symbol). I bought both of these for $20 each. They also had an Alternator Corvette Ravage with a red Decepticon symbol. I didn't buy it. Randy
Damn, Randy, that store either has a bunch of lucky nuts for employees or they have a really good KO-maker working for them. I am so jealous! Congrats!
