    Okay, FP's shipping costs are ridiculous. I just put P/CP in a box without bubble wrap (because that costs even more) and in a Priority Mail box he weighs ONE POUND. Even from Texas to Ohio, THREE POUNDS is $10.35. Shipping for ONE Ramjet Priority Mail is $11.60 according to FP. Something seriously needs to be done about that...

    Yeah....I was expecting a round-about price of $40-$50. But not for this price, especially with that shipping. I really like Ramjet a lot, but not that much to spend on him. I got my budget set for Not-Devy to think about. :D

    These are not 'simple repaints'. It has been discussed ad nauseum why these cost more than mass produced figures.

    Took a bit since the site is getting hammered but it went through. Ramjet and Cheetor are preordered, Cheetor needs more love around here...LOL

    You greatly overestimate the weight. This won't weigh any more than say Punch/Counterpunch or SG Cyclonus. Similar size figures and in similar boxes. Individually, they don't weigh more than 2 pounds packed.

    Shipping from Texas to me priority mail is $7.83 right off the USPS web site, tracking included. So $12 is excessive.

    I'm almost tempted to pack and weight one of them cause I think they might not even weigh that much and it would be even cheaper.

    Locked in one of each.

    The prices seem fine to me. Weakening dollar + production costs going up = Zero surprise.

    It'll be interesting to see if these are manufactured in the USA next year :wink:

    Bought one Cheetor and two Ramjets. Yeah, it's a sickness. Or an addiction. :drunk 

    Ooh, yeah...wait a minute, I think I can get by with one Side Burn. Never mind.

    I'm not talking about mass produced. I know that whole arguement and side with it. I am comparing these to other 3rd party groups that produce in and around the same amout if not less.
