    Feilong(Doublecross), the toy this is based on is 125USD. So with the added hands and weapons and remolded head and wings, I would expect this to be a little more. Maybe around 150USD.

    I wonder if they have fixed the "sunken eyes" problem?

    I may still pick this up. But between Perfect Effect's Dragon Megs and me already owning the actual BotCon 2016 Megatron, this better look spectacular painted up.

    I love their Monsterbots but they are to big for my chugs.
    But i will definitely pick this up for my BW Uprising shelf.
    Looks awesome.
    Really glad he has two hands.

    Whats the $100 rule, and its got so much attention for an exclusive. Usually we don't hear about these until a few weeks before

    Damn, I dig this. Also, gimme a Cryotek repaint. Perfect Effect's TM2 Megatron looks damn cool too, but they're known for having breakable figures while Fanshobby has put out some damn solid ones.
    I was conflicted about Archenemy at first and usually don't spend over $100 on a single release either, but he's seriously worth the $120 and I'm guessing this will be too. The build quality on this figure is better than anything else in my collection. Also, I bought him at the same time as I bought Kultur, who is the same price, and he's literally more than twice that figure's size. Fans Hobby is legit.

    Just found out about this. It's an exclusive right? Any possibility of ordering/pre/ordering it anywhere?

    Hoping the final product has more color details because the prototype just looks kinda plain.

    Wow...if they just add a new head, this just screams for a potential Car Robots Gigatron/RID01 Megatron repaint!
