    Hello there. Local Transformers toy store has the following for sale and I want to know if his prices are fair.

    Alternity yellow Bumblebee (Suzuki Swift car) $50

    WST Bumblebee ?
    WST Sideswipe ?
    WST Jazz ?
    WST Prowl ?
    WST Silverstreak?

    He told me the prices on the WST figures, most of them except for Silverstreak hovered at or under $20. Silverstreak was $50.

    Are these fair prices and what should I grab? They are complete in boxes and in top shape. Thanks!

    I know nothing of WSTs. Nothing on ebay as far as completed listings?

    I wouldn't pay $50 for Alternity Bumblebee, try a few more searches ans you may find a cheaper option. I wouldn't pay any more than $10-15 for those WSTs, none of them are particularly rare. Just depends on how much you want/like them to be honest. Some people like WSTs, some people don't.

    Well I'm sure you may have noticed in my collection I do like them. I think their a great way to display the alt-mode in front of robot mode without taking up extra space.
    I've searched ebay and prices seem about average to what he's asking for.

    Well, Alternity Bumblebee is pending an unexpected purchase. LOL!
    A few days ago I would've had no idea I'd want him but seeing him locally he is pretty cool. It also appears he'd be a perfect match with my Alternator collection. True, the Alternities are a difference scale, but then again so was the original G1 Bumblebee compared to his G1 buddies. So, I'll be displaying him with his Alternator buddies as well. :) 

    Still interested in the WST figures. Also realizing I could be helping with the local economy no?

    Anyway, I always appreciate your answers guys. I'm so happy I found this web site a year ago.
