Igear MW-04 UFO andMW-03 Hench Preorder

Timesynch · 04-02-2012, 06:58 PM

Not crazy about the price hike but I dig the mold designs too much to pass them up. Went with BBTS too for the customer service in case of any QC issues; their price isn't too much more than iGear's, and I'd rather have the peace of mind of being able to exchange the figures or get replacement parts should there be anything wrong with them (and seeing how iGear's customer service is about nonexistent these days).

Since Rager and Spray sold out, I'm sure they made all the money they expected. Unless they made a flat-out mistake with the $18 pricing, they could go back to being mini if that's what they/we wanted.

With the fluctuations in this line and what the fans want out of it, it's possible they'll change again for the next set. I hope they lose too many customers on this, and go back to being mini.

At this point I'm out as well just on principle...but as long as half remain, they still come out ahead. Not to mention however many they gain based on making them bigger.

They gained me and my brother, that's for sure-Brawn for me, Cosmos for him (i love the legends one, go figure)

i cant complain either way. smaller bots, smaller price. bigger bots, bigger price. all were characters i wanted/needed. designs look great to me.

now i just need to wait for my ironhide and ratchet before i order anything else from them.

when they do ill order from their site again. no problem. they were prompt with the huffer and rager, but these van bots are killing me and their rep.
