Feralstorm:
I'd like to get them, but damned if I'll pay auction prices for glorified decoys. I'd rather take the risk and hope they come out at US retail whenever Hasbro gets back around to putting out more non-movie Robot Heroes, thankyewverymuch.
Mechafire:
I REALLY fucking want that Victory pack.
Leo Primus:
Tigatron/Inferno and Ricochet/Predaking sets can be easily found in Europe and even Russia.
But damn, I want that Victory pack too.
SmokescreenGT:
I'd love to get Prowl Vs. Laserbeak, but not for that price.
Houndvoice:
That's an awesome Laserbeak for a not so awesome price.

Didn't know about Russia, but they've been pretty common in Germany. I personally supplied about half of TFW2005 with them.
Victorysabre:
I yearn for the Victory pair. So want.
Brave Magnus:
The Victory duo is great, it breaks my heart knowing they were canceled. T.T BTW: I want that BM Thrust too.
ThaConqueror:
There's no chance I'm gonna get those. Retail or GTFO, please.
NothingHead:
I'd really like Jetstorm, but I'd rather try to tell Hasbro to actually release these waves than buy black market toys..
Moroni Prime:
They should still release them. If nothing else, they can put them in the TFCC, HTS, or at Botcon. Perhaps maybe a store exclusive box set with all of them together.
Neo-Bombshell:
I saw that Jetstomr and Optimus Primal pack here in Peru in several malls!

I also saw another pack with Tankor, but since I don't collect Robot Heroes (they were too expensive here) I don't know if it was released. I should have bought them.
Chaos Prime:
Ricochet VS Predaking?! Wow talk about a one sided fight. LOL!
The_Black_Sheep:
Isn't this the same Seller who listed them a couple of months ago? I wonder how many more of these RH's this Seller is sitting on...

Yeah, I saw most of them in my local supermarket.
Thundershot:
There's still a chance they'll come out when/if Universe returns in 2010.. Or they'd make great club exclusives. I generally dislike robot heroes, but I'd get that Victory set.
jestermon:
I got mine here, it was in a thread, I got the Predaking and Ricochet, decided not to get the Inferno Tigatron.

I think these all got released, just in very small quanities in random markets, the Prowl and Laserbeak make no sense to me, why they were not released in the U.S.

The others (Japanese characters/BM?/Firetruck Prime) I can understand they were not as popular in the U.S. as Soundwaves tapes and well one of the original Autobots Prowl.

It is.

During the last round of auctions, I e-mailed him and he told me he didn't have any more, but might be getting some.

Guess he did.

Either that, or he's sitting on more of them and knows he's the ONLY player in the market right now and can pretty much manipulate things to his advantage.
SPLIT LIP:
BM Primal looks fucking derranged. Laserbeak looks like Primal just jumped out of the shadows.


I love these things.
honcho:
I want that BM set so bad. Primal just seals the deal with that face.
Riltht:
Dang, that BM set is awesome....
Automorpher:
I heard so many of those voices there saying Predaking, Ricochet, Tigatron & Inferno are mass-released so what's the hype with those?

Where I am, these were strewn all-around. Nobody bothers picking 'em up anyway.

To the best of my knowledge, those two sets were released in the UK, Germany, and parts of Asia - but never in the US or Canada. Hence, there is still some inflated demand for them.
Robogeek28:
Wow, a couple of those auctions are really getting up there.
Pavol Palat:
Ricochet/Predaking and Tigatron/Inferno have been available in my country for months (just like movie1 toys and other "new" stuff). I bought them, then decided to sell them on ebay - both MISB sets went for USD 10.50 in total.
Oh yeah, now someone sells them in 2 pairs, without box and will earn much more cash

If somebody is interested, let me know and I can buy them for you.

Lazerbeak/Prwol shot up over $60 last time.

If any of these end under $40 I'll be surprised.

Agreed.

The only sets I have some interest in are the Victory and RID sets. But I won't pay that much for them. I'll wait for when they show up at CVS for $8.99.

That would be me.

Look at my location, its already a giveaway.
NormanB:
Isn't Vatican City the smallest country in the world?

G1Wheeljack:
I really hope they release these eventually, especially since I just finished Victory & need that Victory Saber.
Grimlock_13:
I REALLY want that Prowl/ Laserbeak set....but not for $45. I hope Hasbro decides to release them eventually. Not holding my breath though
jourdo:
Do want! Do not want to pay that price though. I do hope that eventually these make it to general retail some time.
Dran0n:
I <3 freaky ass Lazerbeak.
Boardwise:
I just saw the Ricochet/Predaking and Tigatron/Inferno in my local Toys R Us in the UK.
ORIO:
I would choke an endangered species for that JETSTORM.
Triggerhappy:
these were the only Robot Heroes I really wanted : (

Not paying those prices tho!
llamatron:
Gah, however wins these needs to organize to cast 'em and do a small production run. SHARE THE LOVE
ghowildseven:
Though I like Robot Heroes, but these'll prob go beyond my budget
Bgrngod:
I bought the Ricochet/Predaking pack a few weeks ago from a UK seller. Only cost $20 shipped.

As for Prowl/Laserbeak... WANT! Too bad that price is a swift kick to the junk.
BB Shockwave:
What I fail to fathom is, how come Tigatron-Inferno and Predaking-Richochet was manufactured in large enough quantities to be sold widespread in Europe (they just hit stores here in Hungary and I got them for around 9$) but the other two that were supposed to be in the same wave, the RID pack and the awesome Prowl-Laserbeak pack was not.

I still smell something fishy here (and it's not just yesterday's anchovy pizza leftovers) - I bet Hasbro has just recalled them and they plan to release them together next year when the Animated toys will appear too. I mean, even packaging was manufactured for them. Hard to imagine they'll destroy all that stuff rather then releasing it.
Bass X0:
I want them all. I have all the other figures released except for Chromia/Megatron and Ratchet/Barricade.

I quite like Robot Heroes. I get a large number of characters without having to spend a huge amount. I'm okay that they don't transform either - I'm not a fan of the overly complicated transformations that movie toys are known for. I still haven't transformed Sideways back to vehicle mode since I got him.
Tyrant:
Desperately want the Prowl/Laserbeak set. But with a mortgage and now a brand new loan looming over me, I can't justify paying over $80 for a Robot Heroes set.

Here's praying for an eventual retail release.
Red Alert:
Buzzsaw and Bluestreak or GTFO.
Beastbot X:
WANT. (But, er... not THIS much.)

As long as they follow it up with Sundor & Smokescreen
SoundFire Prime:
Okay, I really, REALLY want that Victory Saber and Deathsaurus two-pack like, RIGHT NOW. Jetstorm and Optimus Primal look awesomesauce, too. Come on, Hasbro, at least put these babies up on hasbrotoyshop.com! They're too cool to cancel!!
Cyber-Scream:
Sucks these were never released. I'd get em all, besides maybe Primal.
