Can't seem to find the going price for the Reissue Megatron D-16S it's $107 shipped, $21 for shipping, did I get a good deal or no? |

What's the normal going price for this particular set these days? |

What's the normal going price for this particular set these days? | What I meant is that you got a good deal if Megatron is not going to be reissued.  However, IMO if the toy has no visible "damage" to the chrome and is still shiny, and all parts intact - you got a very decent/good deal! Unless you wanted Megs MISB! LOL!
As for ths particular reissue Megatron, he easily goes over US$100, even in my country. But from my observation the "book reissue" version is worth more because of the "book reissue" series - know what I mean?
Point to note - some of my local import shops are still insisting that G1 Megs will still be "reissued" but for Asia only and the pre-order price is around US$50.
However, I must add a disclaimer - I seriously don't know if this is true or the "reissues" are simply Japanese toy companies simply "dumping" stocks after finding excess Megatrons in some long forgotten warehouses... |
