    Any one have any ideas on this? All I need are the ports, but the price these things are going for on eBay and such are ridiculous. I'm also aware of the shapeways ones, but those aren't what I need

    The Energon "Aerialbot" limbs used to be pretty cheap, as did the "Constructicon" ones, but I could be wrong. (Got a Duststorm off eBay for aprox. $5.)

    Yeah they were only like 4 bucks at Tuesday Morning stores back when. I stocked up. I would suggest maybe looking on ebay under a search like "Energon lot" where they aren't specifically mentioning the figures by name. You may score a little pile of them for cheap.

    I bought three RoTF Superions (repaint of Energon Superion) for £15 each not far back, and I just missed out on a used one for £6, all from eBay. Thought I'd got a pretty good deal, for UK prices anyway.

    Scouring eBay is the best option. I often search "transformers lots" and go from there. Often there are tons of random figures bunched together in the "other" and "mixed lots" categories.

    Also, search for "transforming" in the toy section. You'd be surprised how many sellers list all sorts of random things as "transforming". I once got a Draias for $10 by doing so.

    I'm looking for the whole joint, which is why the shapeways one won't work. Preferably, two blights/kickbacks, but that seems unlikely
