    Have no intention of using this as a pen, but I do think the bot mode looks really cool. May have to wait on seeing colored pictures and/ or a review before I decide to spend that much on this guy.

    So lets just hope the Japanese preorders don't sell out too fast. Like hell I'm paying $55 for a pen. And then another in black.

    Like I said, I was over estimate to temper expectations. But thank goodness I was wrong! Ahah!

    If I was still waiting tables, this would be the most bombtastic pen. The envy of pens amongst all waiters! :lol

    I'm glad it releases in September. I was worried it would come out in the middle of all this summer movie toy craziness, and I wouldn't be able to afford it. But September is juuuust right.

    I bet the real price is more like $25.
    Considering what some pens cost at Staples... haha
    BBTS always jacks it up.

    It better come in a nice box like those pens at Staples then but if you want a pen just to write, it's cheap

    Can anyone translate the text in the posted picture? Any idea about what material this will be made of (plastic? Painted plastic? Diecast?)

    I think it's safe to say that it's a 'specialty transforming action figure' price and not a 'functional pen' price.

    The more I look at it, the more I realize the bot to pen transformation really isnt much of a transformation...They should have at least made him into a long truck shaped pen.

    meh Price is too high. if it had been $25-$35 before shipping i may have bought one but $55 is just too much.

    When I seen BBTS put up that preorder page for that pen I almost layed an egg,I mean JEEZ $55 for a transforming pen is about OUTRAGEOUS AS HE**,that thing better be able to transform itself for that price or close to it.So in conclusion that price will make sure I won't be getting this.

    Yeah, $35 was the ceiling of what I thought reasonable. Fifty five is pretty ludicrous. The toy is really neat, and would be an interesting addition to my collection. My pockets just aren't that deep.

    Yeah no. Not spending 55 for a penformer. And a small one at that.
