    Pre ordered all 3. Decided to cancel a couple of preorders to help out some. My pre order page on BBTS is the biggest I've ever seen it. I can't wait for those FP Stunticons!

    Well I had no intention of getting X-1, but since the rave reviews And more at regular price, I'll give it a shot. Worse case if I hate it I can sell it and potentially still make a few bucks as always seems to be the case with FP stuff, even rereleases.

    Ordered X-2 and X-3 too, which look much cooler to me than X-1. We'll have to see if I cancel though, those summer months are quickly getting bloated and I don't have as much work during the summer.

    Do these things go up or down in price in time?

    notably for anyone who didn't like codes arms.. probably need not apply here, it doesn't look like these ones (unless there's some crazy joints built in) will be able to make a "T" shaped pose either.

    Fansproject has a tendancy to go up in time.
    Most of their stuff will eventually come available again (it's happened with just about every release), but then after they disappear from the stores their value seems to go back up (perhaps not quite as high as it was prior though).
    notably City commander doesn't fetch the prices he used to, of course there's tons of knock offs out there too.

    I did the math, and my page averages out to $100/month... Not too shabby. Just have to take my lunch to work for 2/3 of the month, for the rest of the year... Blah.

    Brainstorm needs a facemask. We need a 3P group to make a new face for Smart Robin!!!

    It would be nice if FP included that as an alternative head for us.

    Done and done. 2013 appears to be the year of way too many MP's and great 3P's. So many, but so little money......

    These both look a lot better than Code turned out.

    I will only pick them up if their shoulder articulation isn't as piss poor. Doesn't look like it from here. It's bad enough with leaving out ankle articulation on code, but limited arms is a serious figure flaw that I can't overlook since I get most of my enjoyment from posing and fiddling.
