    Yeah, the back tires flips down also, but it exposes the gray plastic.

    If you passed on the two original Siege Optimus Prime molds, mine as well pick up Siege Nemesis Prime with that same money spent otherwise, yeah? :)

    If they are legit probably, but when the label themselves China/Hong Kong/Taiwan on eBay I don’t know which it is. I certainly don’t expect KO sellers in mainland China to be completely forthright. Seems this was one of the “good” companies though.

    Lol! Dudes, I watched it specifically for this! Noon: receive email from TFSource saying Siege NP back in stock, 12:20: item is out of stock. You had to be QUICK!

    Did they increase it by $10 this time around to $89.99? I thought the last time was $79.99.

    Honestly, I couldn't tell you. I managed to get one <$75 shipped on eBay (seller on the "good list" here). I just saw that email and was thinking "oof, here we go."

    I'm not real clear on what their price plan is overall, but I can tell you it's way more dynamic than it used to be. PO'g is a bigger deal now, as I've noticed several listings jump up in price when going from PO to In Stock.

    I ran a comparative analysis for myself, and overall for what I intend to spend, the free shipping over $150 + Stack management means I most likely spend the least through them. *shrug*

    $119 at BBTS and it is sold out. BBTS has gotten out of hand. I shouldn't be shocked people are paying that. Looks like I'm missing out on the Nemesis Prime.

    Complain to Hasbro Pulse for not listing an obviously popular and easy to sell out figure. They list just about everything else from TTMall but strangely passed on this one.

    I bit on the Tfsource listing. I never ordered from them but $89.99 seems better than BBTS' $119.99 tag. This will be my first ever order from TFS.

    I normally wouldn't spend this much for a Voyager but the Siege Prime mold works better as NP and he and his altered look would look good vs. Earthrise Prime.

    Hopefully you didn't use a credit card.

    The pre-order prices were around $70 from various US sellers for their initial pre-order batch. After that, yeah, prices got marked up a bit. Not sure about HK market releases affecting stock and pricing, though.

    No, I used PayPal. I remember the stories about CC info so I didn't want to risk it. Thanks for checking and the heads up though. :)

    RiD Scourge should not be a repaint of regular 1984 style Optimus Prime. Nemesis Prime should not be interchangeable with RiD Scourge. RiD Scourge has his own different colors.
