    I thought about Sonicron again, too.

    Then I took another look at the pictorial review.

    Nope. Not worth $20. Not even worth just the shipping. Do not want.

    Grabbed a Battle Tanker and Perfect Effect Ninja during the sale. I missed the Throne of Chaos though, which I had been eying for quite a while. I am content, however.

    I see this as nothing more than an attempt to boost sagging 3rd party sales.

    Though I am very happy they don't have more Hercules components in stock... my wife would kill me :lol .

    Anyone else notice that they have the Maketoys Bulldozer and Excavator back in stock... but not on sale?

    Very cool. Do you have any of the messengers I have listed in my avatar area here? If so, add me on IM, and maybe we can look at the dates and I'll work something out for sure.

    you may just have to do that, unless your still set on selling the four bots because I still may be interested.

    really?? its a cool bot and now its only $20 seriously I would buy one just to own for the fun of it. he's in the same G1 scale and he holds all the original and new tape cassette bots. I personally pulled the trigger when he was $36 and I still say its worth the $20 now even more so. Also you gotta remember some of those images were of the pre-run of sonicron they have fixed most of those issues by now. Mine is fine personally everything transforms and the joints are nice and tight still.

    Ditto I was going to wait until my birthday at the end of the year to get all three but now that they went on sale put that shit in my POL and now onto the next items. The one thing I did notice is that they took a few items down for example the PE-11 Scouting camera force bot set. there was still at least +20 left in their inventory last I checked on sunday now its sold out.... I would have liked to added another Camera set so I can have one transformed and one in their individual bot mode.

    sonicron is the saddest piece I gotta say. It's discounted so many times, it's reaching the failure of the Patriot Commanders (from 90 to 30 bucks)

    if it's 10 bucks I might just throw something at it just to keep the weapons, if they are 5mm peg and chuck the bot.

    Not that I think hasbro is responsible for this but the 3rd party sale is defferent from the "4000 item sale". Many of the items are listed under the clearance link you posted, plus an addtional 25% off the already clearanced price.

    I grabbed them both today to start my first Devy.

    Resisting the urge to give BBTS more money for the not-insecticons...

    Send them an e-mail. BBTS has a price guarantee:

    BigBadToyStore.com Help

    Within 7 days of purchase, if the price drops or the item goes on sale, they give you a refund. It's store credit, but hey, it's credit you didn't have before.

    don't resist, because you will hate yourself later for not grabbing it at 38$ each man.

    I didn't even know about that price guarantee. That explains where my recent store credit came from. Mystery solved!

    Huh, now I just spent more money, always wanted to see the PE Lazer and Buzzer set, grabbed the Hound add on and the Kup and Perceptor set too. Really thinking about the FP Trailer and 3 more FP Insects wouldnt hurt either.

    Oh snap; I don't actually know if the CD one has a hilt for anyone else-

    Edit- I think that, as long as they can hold this handle, it should be okay. On the right... [​IMG]
