    An awesome sales rep refunded me the difference when it went up on their Lightning deals ($30) but the way this thing is dropping is out of control. I might just have to order another one if it drops under $40 :lol

    No joke, right? I'm not fucking around with the current wave of deluxes -- if Amazon is going to eventually drop them down to $5-6 a piece, I'll wait. Not gonna pay $15 a pop for every single figure this time around :lol

    Word. Figures like FoC Prime and Jazz, which are overpacked and... honestly don't have much reason to exist will get dirt cheap. Ditto for most BBs.

    Not going to happen for Air Raid and the like... they won't be produced in the same numbers and honestly, are much more appealing overall.

    I was placing an order for non tf's last night on amazon, got over $25 so was debating whether to add the $5 FOC Jazz or $7 FOC Prime to my cart. But after quickly watching some reviews on youtube I easily passed. It'll have to get cheaper for me to waste $5 on those.

    I would be ok if the figure was someone other than Optimus, I think. WFC Optimus makes that figure look so horrible.

    Even though I'm in the process of selling my movie collection, I had to jump. Maybe I'll put together a small collection of the best movie figs.

    I have the RotF Leader, which is prettyy great for what it is, but I _just_ put him into temporay storage. Pretty much the only reason I still haven't jumped. Fark, this is sooo hard.

    Me too. So, because they are being dicks about it, I ordered yet another one, and am returning my previous order of $75.

    2nd time doing this now.

    Worth it.
