This is soo cool. I will get both. I don't have a prime first edition figure and I am not buying the RID version.
We must have courage...we can't ignore the danger, we must conquer it.

Well - that's a matter of opinion. This is a must-have for me (and obviously for you), but you and I both know that the cheaper Nemesis Prime version will be enough for a lot of people
Caution - you may encounter more Emery with berserker system installed!

Does anybody know the retail price for the tokyo show set from last year. Just want to gauge what potential markup is. I am hoping for a little 100 for this as that seems fair compared to last few years set. I think G2 Dreadwing set came out at around 110. WFC Darkside set was about 100 also. This shouldn't have any business being over 100 too much.

True, hope the resellers don't decide that just because of these two figures' history (FE Prime being a limited release, Black Convoy being a formerly cancelled one.) they jack up the prices.

Regarding guestimations and price...

The Dreadwing/Smokescreen two-pack was $100+ from US online retailers when it first came out (I don't recall exactly what it was at the time) and that was a Voyager plus a Scout.

The United Darkside two-pack was originally $80-something (I got it from BBTS for $84.99 when it first came out) for two deluxes.

I have no idea what Elite Guard Prowl was priced at when it came out...was it in the $100 range or was it below ($80-90)? It's still listed at $109.99 at BBTS.

Then again, Million Publishing offered that Elite Guard redeco of Animated Voyager Optimus and that cost just over $100. I'm not sure how big of a difference it is that that was a mail-away exclusive versus being a convention exclusive like the Tokyo Toy Show stuff.

Prices aside, the only bad thing about either of these two, for me, is the timing, being right before that month's AM releases (Voyager Starscream & Breakdown, Deluxe Vehicon & Knock Out) about a month or so before SDCC.
