    i stay away from all this movie stuff like it has Herpes. The movies are mildly enjoyable popcorn flicks, but the toys really mess with the core of the asthetics i grew up loving. I'll stick with the RTS and Generations figures thank you very much.

    One of the ONLY DOTM toys that will be getting my money.

    The painted boxed and nice one for about a 20th of what this will end at.

    Getting this one when it hits stores. Not worth paying all that money for this prototype.

    So...someone will pay well over $100 for this. And in 2, that's 2 months, we all will pay $40 for the same figure...that will be painted and have all its parts. This ebay figure won't go up in value at all. It would only go up if it were a figure that would never come out.

    Testshot!....nice. I remember these!

    Funny to hear all you guys complaining about the price here.

    Back in the day before "Stolen Chinese Toys" became popular, a testshot was the only way of getting a figure early, and you paid for it too.

    Wow! the KO has more paint apps. Hasbro is really getting cheap on us. How much really to give this guy some additional paint apps?

    i got a email from the seller, he said it was about 35 centimeters tall, which makes him about 14 inches tall, think he is right?

    Yeah....I'm in the camp of waiting less than two months for a finished product at a quarter of the cost.

    That and I'd rather not encourage the theft of Hasbro's property.

    No, we've never had a leader toy that tall, Primus is about 14". Leader's are generally closer to 10".

    I Read in The toy fair Thread, that These testshots are bigger than The Final releases, so The Final Figure could Be much smaller

    mouaha. I increased the price past 150$ to see if some people were motivated to bid more than that more than 2 days before the auction ends. And it is actually the case.
