Try searching on EBay France, as a few years back I pointed a few people on here towards an auction where the guy had multiples of the 8-figure set. Last set of the 8-pack I saw, was looking for over £300 ($510 roughly) for them.
I know they guy selling it I was the one asking him about it that got him to fish it out - he only decided to put it up at such silly money as a bit of a joke. I hope I have not shot everyone in the foot by asking him about them as - anyone else selling them might think they are worth more now. I can't see me realistically paying $150.00 for a single Micron There are very few I'd pay insane money for such as the black space team. Then a few I'd pay a slight premium for like Bug General, The Space Galaxy Destruction team, The Meglo Microns, some of the DVD Microns and the rarest Emergency Team repaint. You don't have to always though as there is always sellers who think the $150.00 prices is someone just taking the mic and sell them for less. I only just got the TRU clear Campaign Wheeljack trio for a modest price (it's in the mail at the mo - pics when I get them). I recall when you could buy a Jusco Spychanger for like £4.00 ($7.00). Did all you folks out side the UK remember to get the Dragon and Monster truck variants from the UK Bland packs ? I'm still trying to find out if the Bulkfist is still metallic flake plastic in it's UK form - so far no luck finding that out though..
Yeah, I saw that expensive 8 pack on the UK eBay. I wouldn't mind paying about $150 for it since it would round out to about <$20 each, but almost $500 is a bit too much. I'm actually waiting on a Brimstone UK variant, completely forgot about the monster truck possibility though. Also need the others in general. Ugh, UK variants are getting harder to find compared the JP store exclusives (well, not the JUSCO ones).
A bit of interesting story on how i got my Transformers Prime AM Fenzy (it has the Dago arms micron) its 3 in the morning im sleeping all of the sudden my old friend Travis who owns me about a 1000 dollars still (payed his bail i shouldn't have but i was young and he was like a older brother to me) is banging on my window and im like "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU ITS 3 IN THE MORNING I WAS HAVING A GOOD DREAM" and he was like "Hey man was it about Tifani" and I said "Nah it was Pinkie Pie..of course it was Tifani what do you want" I want to give you this it was weed I said "I dont do that stuff anymore im clean dude" After awhile he gives me 25 dollars because he wanted me to pay me back some way after he gave me the money he drived off he looked pretty bad but at lease i got some money to Transformers Prime AM Fenzy.
$500 for that Europe 8-pack is silly. I hope that person lowers it a lot. That's over 60 a micron. I got mine a while back from a fellow member, the set is cool but not $500 cool (and I don't think it's $500 rare already).
By the way for guys who have Megatron Darkness i heard that his arms micron hades (the bat) suffer from stress marks or something like that I heard.
Probably these ones; transformersarmada: Space Galaxy Team review Sometimes also known as the Oreo Space Team or another variation including Oreo in the title.
I haven't experienced any on mine. It is clear plastic, so presumably it's more susceptible than the non-clear microns. The only stress marks I noticed on any clear Arms Microns were one or both of the clear O.P.s. The others managed to avoid any right off the bat pretty consistently.
Oh ok because i really like megatron darkness arms microns and i want him to use them but i dont wanna cause stress marks.
I wouldn't worry about it too much. Given it's so much bigger than the others, I remember it being an easy build and is relatively lacking in small parts. Unless you're totally reckless with it, you should be fine.
I love Microns but oddly enough I never saw this thread. Only missing a few Micron Booster packs and all the X-Dimension and store exclusive Japanese ones and I believe I'd have all the Micron/Minicons. Oh, and the Kmart 10 pack. But I do love these little guys. I'm happy the current Legends are doing something sort of related, it scratches the itch some.
No the Black Space team was a lucky draw type thing (bit like Black Magmatron) of the rocket,transport and space station Microns... It's stupidly rare which is why I said it's the only team i'd pay stupid money for. I would rather like the Hong Kong exclusive Armada Powerlinx Battles toys too.. (Like the repaint Adventure team) Boy was I an idiot for not buying those when they were new. -------- Yeah Megatron's Purple bat is on the road to self destruction - I'm sorry to say.
I've never heard of a Black Space team, and to be honest after a quick search the only references I can find to them on "English" websites have been made by you. Up until the start of the PCC Minicons I had a fairly extensive list of all Minicons/Microns released or rumoured and have no record of a Black Space Team. As a small backup to my claims of being a MiniCon addict, I'm one of the lucky few who have a set of the Unreleased Space Team that were to come with Spacewarp.
I'll take a quick/messy pic later, I'll admit I'm rubbish at taking them. I'll try to find all the Space Teams I have to go with it. Including the Oversized Poundland one, if I can remember where I put those. Unless you'd rather see them with someone/thing else?
I don't recall any Lucky Draw microns, certainly not of the Space team anyways, aside from the partner microns included with the larger Lucky Draw figures (Optimus, Megs, Jetfire I think?). And as for Hades...what do you mean by self-destruction exactly? It's not brittle, so I'm not sure what you're getting at. Lucky. I'd love to own some but have no idea what they would cost if a set ever became available. I'm assuming they're out of my price range, a la Dragoyell and the Space Galaxy Destruction team.
OK as I had everything lying out I decided to take a video rather than pictures. Apologies if you can't fully understand me, some people have said my Scottish accent is too thick, whereas others have said that it's not that apparent. Link or embedded video here; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2uGbwfO1Zc As I was doing this I thought that I really should lie them out on the floor again like I did one time in the past and take one huge picture. Phill I forgot to say, that when I got the Unreleased Space Minicons I paid about £14 for them and the Commetor one, including S&H. They were badly listed. There is another unreleased Space Team from the Armada days, and I believe that as few of them exist as the Universe ones I've got. Gallery of those here - http://tfkenkon.com/collection/act281/
