Yeah shipping is a killer for me also. That's why I try to get my TFs as soon as they come up. In some instances I preorder them etc. Doesn't matter if they're cheaper later, its when the prices rise later that I worry!



Yeah, the paint aps are really good for me. It makes him for gritty and realistiic (if such a word can ever be used). Here's some poorly taken pictures of mine. Please note that the Energon Blades are sold separately!

You're right on this one.

Some member from a local forum in Singapore posted this picture sometime earlier.



Edit:

Before anyone misunderstood the whole thing, I was responding to SydneyY's post about a concrete sightings in Australia so yeah, this IS taking place in TRU Australia, NOT Singapore.

It was Jetwing ($199 from BBTS) and yeah in retrospect it was a bad idea. I should have picked up another HT 89 Batman instead. I'd sell it now but I doubt I would get more than $100 for it.

Again, I lucked out on the Energon Swords, a friend who was in Japan managed to snagged a set for me. The blades were released in Japan as a Toys R Us exclusive. I think you can try EBay for them but I think the prices are steeped right now.

Just be careful if you buy the blades online. There is a KO or fake for it. The bad thing about the original blades is there is no TakaraTomy stamp on it. So try to ask the seller for the instructions but even that can be a fake. The best way is to examine and familiarize the designs of the original blades, especially the grey sections. There are differences if one looks carefully.

If there's a TF 4, I have no idea how they're going to top Striker, maybe with better paint aps and more weapons like the axe Optimus used in the final battle?

Darn, that is expensive dude! To be honest, I never bought from bbts before because my friends who did so found them expensive.

Less for $100 in the US? I doubt so dude, unlike Asia JW was not released at retail. I think if you can afford to, take your time in selling him.

I paid for my Jetwing 255$. And I have Buster Prime and Jetfire (they was bought in 2010)! I thought about this purchase about a half-year...
