Betting on Ravage or Frumbly with the Soundblaster repaint. It's properly mercenary.  Last edited by Feralstorm; 06-12-2012 at 05:58 AM.. |

Let's see if BBTS honors their $139 pre-order price.  http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/items-...cus-value.html<---Click Me-It's my Trade Thread |

If they don't raise the price on the original $139 preorders, a $60+ dollar retail loss on each figure is HUGE. The almost have to raise the prices now. Edit: They probably won't lose $60 plus dollars on each figure per se because their cost to buy each figure from Takara is still below $199. But they're sure to take some type of loss on each one depending on what their markup normally is based on what they actually pay. $139 has to be pretty close to cost for them. | |

| Constructicon  Join Date: May 2009 Posts: 790 Location: Belgium News Credits: 1 | Damn, MP-14 being Alert means they'll probably use two MP slots for the upcoming Skywarp and Thundercracker. For sale/For trade/Wanted Free shipping on big orders - FeedbacksSoundwave's price increase isn't welcome but it looks like Lambor and Alert prices have been lowered to $58,50. Last time I checked they were $78 or something. Hot items: MP-8X King Grimlock MIB / Botcon 2011 Stunti-con Job MIB / PE-11 Scouting Force X MIB |
