    I am now the proud owner of a G1 megatron all pieces complete in box only thing missing is the instructions

    Price

    £9.95

    Reason it was so cheap it was on sale in bidway which is connected to ebay and ebay are not allowed to sell anything gun related, the guy said it could have went for as much as £60 to £80 but ebay rules put a stop to that.

    There was also a box full of g1'ers including sideswipe, hot rod, rodimus prime, ramjet, skywarp, starscream (all missing tail wings) and a slighty battered and bruised ironhide and optimus prime

    I'll post pics later

    Sweet deal, d00d. I think that's a reminder to all of us to keep an eye out on the lesser-used auction sites.

    Daaaamn. A boxed G1 Megs can end up going for a lot, so you did really well there if it's in good condition. Nice one!

    That is a most excellent bargin. As for the no guns on Ebay thing, Ive seen US ebay sellers selling G1 megs (and MP megs for that matter) for quite a while now. However Ebay may have to enforce different rules for sellers in other countries.
