    I'm on the fence here, I have the Armada Unicron from a few years back, and that is pretty freaking awesome. Not sure if I need this one. It's a very big toy. The main selling point for me would be the animation accurate color scheme. The price is also pretty good.

    Amazon doesn't ship toys to aus. Anyone know what the best option would be for international? Wait for BBTS to scalp or get a board member to middleman?

    Some of you guys are way to paranoid about these selling out. It is a mold of a figure that has been out for years. Throw in the fact that a lot of people already dropped $150 on the Takara 2010 version. Also these will be available at Costco in Canada. You shouldn't have a hard time getting one.

    Well, it's easier on me to know that a lot of people have confidence he's gonna be around for a while. I'm still going to preorder at the drop of a needle and hold on tight. I'm not gonna risk not being able to get him...
    He was one of my first Transformers, he has shelf presence, the color scheme is bitching... Who cannot want this?

    wow how much did you pay for that?

    the fact that it will be cheaper, is an exclusive, a nice repaint, and no tax and free shipping from amazon.com appeals to me.

    anyone know what day in october?

    I didn't even know these were out yet on eBay. Looks like the cheapest ones sold recently was for BIN $160.

    Like most Leader/Masterpiece figures, the Canadian price will at least be $69.99 plus our high tax rate (13% here in Ontario).

    Also, we will be able to buy ours at Costco, so we will have ourselves a "hunt."

    When is he coming out in Canada again?

    I may buy this when it comes out...it looks so much more accurate than Armada Unicron.
