    Way to go Big Filipino, a news credit. Now let's see those Junkions and see if they're worth the trouble!

    Already going for $200+ on eBay. For those who are buying I certainly hope so!

    Jesus, I just hope tomorrow I get my set to keep, perhaps the kiddo a set if he still wants/can be bumped to Primus.

    Disappointed all my speculating about Scoop since he was shown so freaking much in other images that he isn't around.

    Actually, that's a fair point. In the past, the comic has had prices, too (admittedly, one year the prices in the comic were wrong). We should have this information already.

    Don't think you can blame FP as SG has been one of their best selling sets, and one of the sets with the highest after market values.

    I just thought of something: What attendee exclusives actually have NEW heads?

    SG Straxus - Original head
    SG Prime - Original head
    SG Octopunch - Original head
    Spinister - Looks like the alternate Vortex head
    Kick-off - Can't tell, but it could be Jazz
    Junkions - Can't tell, but it could be any of the 3 (if not all)

    Anyone want to check to see what new heads there are? (since they're in the comic)

    Usually we have 2 new head molds among the attendee figures...

    I would certainly be interested in that Junkion until I see them all and then change my mind on them

    Anyone want to hook up a stranded-in-Florida fan with a 2012 SG Optimus Prime? (I don't need Kickout.) Am definitely willing to throw you some extra $$ on top of whatever he costs, for your trouble.

    So does anyone have confirmation as to the molds used for these?
