    $200-$250? No way. $150? For sure.

    The reaction to the price proves that no one in a sane mind would spend anything mode than 200 bucks on Shocky, whether the accessories are boss or not.
    Good.

    What about around the 160-190 delta?

    I think TCracker just called me insane for admitting that I would buy Shockwave (albeit regretfully) at his original range. :p 

    At around the 160-190 range I would be happily all over him.

    Repeated for emphasis.

    It's rough to import, and I can't think of anything to include with Shockwave that is value-adding in the way that the other Decepticons that come with Soundwave are.

    Guess I'm nutz too:lol . The $160 price range is about the same as Soundwave, which is also acceptable. This would probably have to be the price though cause I really don't see Takara making the accessories for him. Oh and please no electronics, we don't need them limiting articulation.:thumb

    I believe you and me both... Although I prefer the term mentally unbalanced. So it goes w/o saying I'd be more than happy to get just the figure in the $160 range but the $190 range it would have to come with at the very least a mini Shockwave gun and maybe Carly.

    Caveat:
    Not sure whether this is solid info but I was told by my sources a few minutes ago, human characters (like Spike who came with Optimus) will be included in other big ticket names.
    One of them being a dude in a wheelchair (?)

    Will update as I get more.

    I hope so too. I still keep in touch with some of them.
    And yes, Chip Chase! I totally forgotten his name. But which bot does he usually associate with in the G1 animation?

    Yea, Chip is commonly associated with Jackie... Oh my how that would make my year. When I say that I want the entire G1 cast made in the MP line that too would include the humans. So maybe this is just one step closer.

    If they do a Megatron V2, he should come with Sean Berger.

    Just curious what you mean by 'nearly all the red is painted'? I have TT MP-10, and everything that is red on him is molded red plastic, except for the Autobot logo. Or do you mean all the red parts have details painted on them?

    AHHH Shawn Berger. He would definitely be appropriate for a Meg V2.
