They say it's limited to 2000 pieces. Valkysas: gah, too expensive. I frown now.
 Lumpy: hmmm...hopefully i can find it cheaper... Tekkaman Blade: I pre-ordered, now I have to get a new magnus, kitbashed my old one. Acidophilus: Quote:

I should have that much cash to spare by the time it is actually released. Hopefully.
Or else find a cheaper one beforehand. Acidophilus: I'm just happy now I don't have to deal with ebay prices. C.I.A.D.: Wow..that's pretty damn sexy...
Might have to add that to the POL. Thanks for the heads up. Omnibus Prime: I have like a dozen things on pre-order at BBTS already..what's one more?
Can always cancel if it pops up cheaper. UltraDevmodious: I don’t see what the appeal is but okay. Pauly T: Quote:

But it does have a way too high price/coolness ratio... razorchrist: I did my usual routine. Pre-order through BBTS just to be safe, then cancel the order at the last minute when (not if) I find it for cheaper somewhere else.
Gotta love pre-orders that don't charge you in advance.  Tekkaman Blade: It is the first real armored magnus since rid, and it is the best combinable trailer for magnus since the one from Marks customs. Only this one is affordable. I keep hoping for a Mp version with trailer though. Fort Max: I said I'd order if it were under 100 bucks and it is, so order I did.  iluvu_superion: I guess these are cheaper than what I had expected, though, it still is not as affordable as it could be, but better than nothing i guess!! YEAPERS!!! Pimpimus Prime: It's cheaper than I expected. Basketball Jones: If this lot sells, the next one may be even cheaper, as more will be produced. Fort Max: Does anybody have a classics magnus they wanna sell?
I sort of need one to go with the armour set I just ordered.  iluvu_superion: Maybe this will help the value of classics magnus increase as well. DoubleClouder: I preordered one just to be safe. While it does seem expensive, at least this transforms. I mean look at how much that Cliffjumper kit was going for.... Valkysas: Guys, there's no point in hoping to find it cheaper. the people who made it posted here and told us that the price was fixed. this is the price it HAS to be. Chainclaw: Ordered, thanks for pointing it out Acidophilus. It's cheaper than I expected. jourdo: Pre-ordered... just in case. THanks for the tip! Max-prime: hope they dont over sell this preorder. Trek: Pre-oredered. Much cheaper than I was expecting, even with the UK shipping. Larkin Vain: Just pre-ordered a set. The price is a lot better than expected. Locustreign: Quote:

I was also expecting the price to be set over $100. so I am very pleased. unicronhq: ordered one....straight to fee bay with it too once it arrives.... Acidophilus: Quote:

Members of this board have often alerted me to things such as this(thanks everyone), and I am very happy to contribute. Laser_Optimus: Preordered! This sucker is significantly cheaper than I expected. Acidophilus: Quote:

That Cliffjumper upgrade, far less impressive, went for a lot more and was tough to acquire right? slugslinger2004: Pre-ordered. Now to buy a Classics Magnus MagnusPrimal: Preordered one, thanks.
It's about $10-15 more than I'd hoped, but not too bad. Don't know if I'll actually get it or not, but better to get the preorder in, just in case. Sammael: I don't trust BBTS prices. I think this will end up being $50 or so, and at that price and the current going dollar rate, I'm going to buy it. Pun-3X: I figured it to be more, so this isn't TOO bad. Thing is, I want to see better pictures of it before I make my final decision. MagnusPrimal: Quote:

It's supposed to cost the same from all the online retailers. Acidophilus: Quote:

I recall that statement, but I also recall some statements about the Cliffjumper upgrade that turned out to be blatantly false. razorchrist: Supposed set price or not, I will be VERY surprised BBTS's price is *the* price. They are notorious for their overpricing & mark-ups, so I really don't see it being much different with this item. I fully expect it'll be listed cheaper through TFSource and the Canadian e-tailers like A3U & Kool Toyz. Scourge_151: Pre-ordered. This along with Animated Magnus are sure making up for the lack of decent toys for the big guy. Petro-rabbit: Pre-ordered. Not gonna miss my chance at getting one of these. Runamuck: Quote:

Same here. This item seems to be very popular. Even if I don't find one cheaper, at least I have mine secured. |
