    Yeah, sold out at BBTS, but still available at EE. Already have one that I paid the premium on to get shipped down from Canada, but figured I'd pick this up as a gift for my son whose BDay is in June. Hope it gets here in time or it'll go to my other son who has his BDay in September. LMAO!! :p

    Nice Find. This set is really nice. The Two Figures are nice (Megatron is awesome) and the kids are great. :)

    Same here, I pre-ordered mine back in January and just never cancelled it with the hope it may come back in-stock at some point. I hope I still get mine too and at the cheaper price.

    The problem is that it's $45 plus tax plus shipping, which I think brings it up to $60 or more.

    That's if you don't want to give the bro who helps you out a couple loonies extra for his trouble.

    Yep...I did help some people out when they announced no FE's in the US but the price plus canadian shipping made them pretty expensive.....so they sit on the shelves.

    Anyone that doesn't want the kids, shoot me a PM and let me know how much you want for them.



    Thanks

    Ditto. Man, I was ready to ship out my PoL once Wave 3 three-pack dropped but guess I'll wait this out since I still have my old Entertainment Pack preorder.

    I think it normally comes to 52 or something after taxes, but it's still pretty pricy regardless of how you juggle thing. I sold a couple @ 55+ shipping, but even at that they were pretty hard to move because the total price ends up being pretty rough. I might pick up a couple more if they go on clearance or if there's a big enough sale that includes em so I can charge less & maybe make a few bucks, but it's probably not worth it for most people, even with this Megatron being as amazing as he is & with the extras that come with.

    Although to be fair, the deluxe Optimus isn't that bad either, and has a really nice metal flaked colour that we don't see much these days. Plus, I'd also argue that he's got the best alt mode out of all the TF Prime Optimus figures, even the FE Voyager.

    If the shipping wasn't so high in Canada (why is it so high?) I totally would have purchased an Entertainment pack from one of the sellers on this forum...but it's just too much. Probably close to 40 bucks (for two sets), when BBTS's shipping for two was only 11 bucks.

    It sucks, since shipping costs from Taiwan or Europe are actually cheaper for some bizarre reason, when compared to Canada. o_0

    Bought, just for the kids. Though the Optimus and Megatron aren't a bad bonus.

    I just hope I actually got in on the preorder, and I'm not going to get an email sometime in June saying "lol sry we ran out"
