    I mean a lot of people were fine spending full price on a Hound from Takara and still tried to defend their purchase despite the thing cracking and breaking apart before their eyes because they were happy enough just to have him on their shelf, too. Even I personally bought say Star Convoy at $80 and still enjoy having him despite the figure having a lot of little annoyances to the point where it's hard for me to say he was really worth that investment. But you can always be happy with your purchase and see the value in it to you even though others might not always agree with it. And the opposite is also true, you don't have to like it and buy it just because "oh well, it's Takara and that's just what it costs!".

    After all the price is what it is, no changing that. It's set by the company that makes these things and possibly varies by the seller, but value is subjective (if not downright complicated). So someone can easily believe Turtler was worth $60 to them but not see Super Megatron as holding the same value, or vice versa, and might want to take time to think it over before purchasing or to just say "forget it, it's too much, I'm good". And like I said that's all OK.

    ...no offense but the length of time you spent asking your question you could have looked and found the answer instead of adding nothing to the thread but its post count.

    Has/Tak did a great job retooling the TR Galvatron toy. But that H-tank still looks terrible. Woulda bin better to omit it altogether than settle for a half-job.
    Like Galvatron's jet mode is gratuitous, yet I still love the toy.

    I stick by my words, H-tanks (and now U-tanks) are lazy.

    I was under the impression that Starconvoy and Super Megatron were of the same height. So Sc has a slight height advantage over SM? At least the same accuracy (scale etc) like latest Titans OM and Devs.

    I\'m sure it\'s mentioned somewhere, but given the summary in the latest news bit, as far as I can tell the \"mysterious alien\" at the end it\'s primacron.  His name shows up in the panel at the very least, and it basically looks like him.

    I sure wouldn't mind having a Gold WFC Rodimus Prime (Primus) figure

    Godimus Prime.
    And honestly, Primus deserves more.

    I’d be surprised if we didn’t get a new Rodimus Prime and Galvatron in the third part of WFC... Maybe we’ll get a new Primus then. As long as they don’t make it a lucky draw..

    Where in the source material is it stated that Super/Ultra Megatron is shorter than Star Convoy? Are people basing it off of this image?

    I'd love a Haslab Primus, I'd say do both, the Gold Rodimus I more so think of as just an avatar form of Primus, his spiritual form etc, hes a God, he can do lots of cool things
