PASS for me also. Even if I were to spend $120 on, it would have to be original G1 colors.

The price for Nightbeat is a surprise, but not the Seacons, I knew they'd be over $100 easy.

As for Nightbeat, I lost interest in him long ago, the delay killed any interest I had in him, especially now when I'm selling all but my favorite Classics figs.

I can't believe I actually thought Nightbeat would cost around what Airrazor did.

edit: Just noticed you hafta preorder them seperately as well since they won't be shipped together, tsk tsk.

Nightbeat is awesomesauce, but I thought they were going to release the Seacons in 3 2-packs. I really can't afford anything over $100.

I can't wait. Nightbeat...is MINE. *Subtle evil music, followed by DUN DUN DUNNNNN*

Seacons: That price killed it for me. If they would have done it in the G1 colors, I'd be all over it.

Nightbeat: Pass.

Ouch.

I'm trying to figure out how a $30 toy (Armada Jetfire as Astrotrain) and a set of Minicons ($7) could go for $95 WITH A NEW HEAD FOR ASTROTRAIN, yet the Seacons, which were going to be $30-$35 at Wal-Mart, and there's no remolding at all (that I saw on the one at Botcon), and it's selling for $120. Unless there's a lot of paint apps we don't know about, or there's a significantly smaller production run than Astrotrain, then this is a bit odd.... I was planning on getting multiples, but now I can't justify it at that price. I was honestly expecting $85 for some reason.

Also.... why CAN'T you ship them together? Just hold the order on the one until the other's ready. FP way overcharges for shipping as it is, and I'd much rather wait (I've already waited this long) than pay two shipping charges...

I'm not usually one to complain, but this is something I've been waiting for...
