    Thanks, Tony Bacala, for front-paging this deal! :thumb 
    Not sure $128 is fair (would be nice if cheaper), but I paid around $150 for the Metro reissue, so at least this price is more in line. :)  Yowza... there goes an extra $128 I didn't wanna spend this season! :lol  :banghead:  :lol

    Haha no need to be sorry, this is a good price for him, and the best way to get a 100% complete figure.

    ya, that's what I heard. my brother got a center in TN a couple years ago and talked about the taxes on Amazon for him. This must be a pretty recent thing here in Mich. Since I order like once a month it seems from there. I was surprised to see the Tax added on todays order....Guess I'll have to factor that in now when comparing sites (mostly Ebay with Amazon).

    Yep, one per account or otherwise flippers would buy everything.

    I think $128 (or $125 for me) is pretty fair considering it's the cheapest place to buy it probably other than in store in asia. I told myself $120 and I'd bite, plus I used the Chase Freedom credit card that's doing 10% cash back for Amazon purchases this quarter, makes it even better.

    Black Friday Weekend Sale – ScrambleCore Toy Store

    Scramble Core has a good BF sale for in-stock items. Some good CW/RID deals, MP 12G (Black/G2 Sideswipe) $45, Takara Legends, etc.

    PLUS 15% off all prices with code: SC_Black_Friday_2015

    Check em out! It's their 2nd yr in business, but I've ordered before with no issue.
    No offense, but I HATE it when people compare prices to MSRPs. I'm talking about real VALUE, as determined by material/development/marketing/etc. costs. This is a collector's item and I'm generally against charging premiums because your customers are so tolerant of high prices. :(  I think a lot more people would buy Trypticon at <$99.

    But thanks for the Chase Freedom tip! :D  I'm not sure I still have that CC... :lol  (Discover is doing 5% cash back on Amazon)
    EDIT: Trying to sign up for the Chase 10% back, but the website is not updating my sign-up, and keeps saying I'm not activated! :banghead:  Discover updates that sh*t instantly, WTF Chase?! Either an error, or Chase updates VERY slowly. :mad

    Unclear. I think most of the TF e-tailers don't bother with special Monday sales, so don't count on anything beyond what's on sale for BF weekend (which they sometimes extend into Monday).

    But remember what Autobobby posted a few pages back:
    TARGET - B2G1 FREE on ACTION FIGURES. Should happen TOMORROW (Sunday).
    I think it's in-store only, but I don't know for sure.

    That's exactly the point: they want to sell everything. If stuff sells out, they did their job.

    YEah, pretty bad... but they did double-list Leader TC, so there's a chance you could price-match the $26 listing in-store! :cool: 
    :lol  You're being funny, right? :D 
    There's another point: they have new stuff coming in (i.e. Bruticus wave!!! :rock )
    I'm seeing same with TMNT stuff: lots of old toys, a sprinkling of new ones, and the majority of new probably waiting for shelf space.

    So BF is basically a dressed-up clearance sale? :lol

    The majority of Target's "stock" has been sold out for weeks
