I cant wait to see the price of this   $20 to $25 easy i bet. The most i would pay for that is 5$.. These guys are the worst with pricing and how to sell things.

 

Don't worry, i'm sure they'll turn out a longer, arm mounted, cannon as well.


They'll sell it in three parts at 25 each, with an optional LED that costs another 25.

There's profit, and then there's outright greed.

 

Not really.... these things sell out. They're laughing all the way to the bank.

 

Pretty pathetic and will probably have a stupid price to match. I could knock something better up out of mighty putty in half an hour.

That better be cheap O.O

 

This gun, as crooked as it looks, will sell out. But they usually make a limitted number of parts, it seems, because no matter what they price things at, they sell out fast. I ordered all the G1 Devs and King parts so far, but ordered the pile-drivers for F/R from Maidenjapan (he also has custom heads for Soundwave and Blaster). I won't order the movie or the G2 Devs parts. But I do want the Superion parts.

 

Bent gun = fail.
Piecemeal release crap = fail.
Put them all in one set and charge a non-ludicrous price for it = potential win.

 

Word.

Personally, depending on how one would look at it, the timing of CrazyDevy's emergance was either the best or worst thing to happen to me. I finally bought a G1 Devastator last month, and I have a G1 Superion coming soon in the mail (plus a Predaking pre-ordered for end of this year). For now a pass on everything, but re-release it all in a single "affordable" package for each combiner and I'll consider it.

 

The only people we have to blame for their outrageous prices and one-at-a-time release crap is the fandom. Their stuff sells out, no matter what they charge.

The only thing we can do is QUIT BUYING THIS STUFF. Maybe then they'll change their tactics.

OF course, telling TF fans not to buy overpriced crap is like screaming at a wall.

 

I bet you're right.

 

If they charged $100 a kit they would not sell out. The price they have picked for these is high, I agree with that, but not entirely out of this world. I haven't bought any of these kits myself based on the price alone, but that certainly doesn't mean they are crap by any stretch. Based on the reviews and pictures I've seen they are all pretty well done.

The fact that these do sell out suggests that they should move the price up instead of down. Demand is obviously outpacing supply.

I think it looks pretty good, although I agree with the price probably being stupid.

Which is exactly why people need to quit supporting this BS pricing/release scheme. They're only screwing themselves.

 

Whaaaaat?!

 

I like what CrazyDevy does to improve the G1 figures... but it's really expensive. I mean to upgrade Devastator it would've cost... well way more than I was willing to spend. But, they still look cool.

 

I think MMM's referring to the people who buy this overpriced stuff a bit at a time.

 

I wish Crazy devy would quit doing the lame ass combiners and start doing more with Menasor, Piranacons and the Abominus!! Then i would have money to spend on, the only autobot combiner i cared for was Defensor and some to Computron, but really i hated him...

 

I'll wait to see what they come up with next for Superion before biting the bullet. So far, I'm not really impressed, but maybe the whole will look better.

 

Looks like the rifle might have been put on the back burner

 

Looks like it covers the black parts of his thighs, I'm really curious as to how they'll bulk up his thighs and I wonder if they'll do something for the arms too since I always thought they were abit on the short side

 

Got the CDMW-13 today so I figure I'll post a few pictures of the kit and how it compares to the original parts

Opened package. Interesting to note, no tape sealing the blister pack.

A shot of the original and CDMW-13 rifle, note the hollowing detail on the new gun.

First impressions, it's an interesting kit. The rifle is somewhat loose in the fist, and mine is an original Superion, not a KO. I think the faceplate on for the CDMW-6 should have been painted to match the face, this way it looks a little off
