What's the deal with the Allspark Almanac Vol. 2??

NC Bulkhead · 01-25-2012, 07:05 PM

I did a search and couldn't find this discussed anywhere on the forums. Why is the Allspark Almanac volume 2 selling for almost $200? Is volume 2 really that rare? Was it a short print run or something?

Yes, actually.

Took awhile to get mine too. Be great if the consolidated both vols (might b too thick tho) like what they did with the g1 char art guide whatitsname. Not likely tho unless theres renewed interest in tfa.

Wow, I could almost get the 2012 Botcon set for that. Maybe I'll sell mine, it just sits there.

I just did a check on ebay, and I found this: ORDER: TRANSFORMERS ALLSPARK ALMANAC VOLUME 2 | eBay

If you look around for anything, you can always find it cheaper then the going rate.

It had two print runs, same as the first volume. However, its in much higher demand due to all the season 4 and cancelled toy info in it.

I was able to get my copy at Amazon for only $17 last year thank goodness. (Avoids tomatoes thrown at me.)

Yeah, I got mine for less than retail a while back.

It might be worth $200.

Holy crap! $200? Glad I got mine for cover price on Amazon a couple of months ago.

I'm pretty sure those who have been trying to sell at that price have never sold one.

Going value I'd guess would be between $40-$60.
