Flipout is now selling on eBay for as high as 222 dollars. Yes sir, you didn't read wrong.

XTB has now joined FT in the "I can sell my figure for a crazy dollar amount" club.

 

And off to eBay Flipout goes.

 

Yes please, to both. I'd like to have my garish blue and purple Motormaster already.

 

       surly it will never sell, that's ridiculous

 

It did sell. And it's not the only one that went for over $150 recently.

 

Totally agree with you. XTB stated that along with the pandemic they found some issues with the trailer hence fixing it and so the delay happens. We're only one figure away and it could revealed anytime soon(along with the price and release date i hope) so hold your horses men.

 

Who knows. I know first batch of Deathwish could have had better undercarriage clearance for rolling in car mode (it wasn't as bad as toon Crackup's). I think someone on this thread came up with a mod for it. In any case XTB should do another batch of toon Crackup with this corrected.

 

That's insane it's a 50 buck figure at best

 

Lol idiots willing to pay that much for a car bot.

 

 

Do you have a Screenshot of that? I find it hard to believe as I have XTB Crackup Saved on my eBay searches and I don't recall seein that listing. The latest I saw was around $80.

 

Not even half as insane as what older Iron Factory legends go for. $300 for Starscream? No way, man.

 

See below:

 

Go to the XTB thread.

 

Agreed. The bots are out and they look and display well. The trailer isn't that interesting because the vehicle modes just peg on like legos. It might be different if there was some sort of transformation involved to make the limbs or if the individual figures were gimped so bad by the need to combine that they looked like shit in bot mode.

 

XTB’s DeadEnd and Wildrider are fantastic, but with XTB you know there’s a reissue coming at some point, no need to get crazy

 

Well I'll be damned lol.

 

Since I haven't seen someone show all the current ones side by side yet:


Team shot:

 

Plus I prefer them to the others because they scale well with the masterpiece autobot cars.

 

I suspect it's the colour scheme holding back G2 Motormaster. His original toy used the whole blue trailer in bot mode leaving just the feet purple.

XTB is using just the cab like FT and DX9(ish), for bot mode. I forsee some compromise and disappointment.

I also don't see how they will faithfully give us a toy version without heavy compromise.

 

Maybe those molds are at a different factory than the molds for the Stunticons and the factory that has the Stunticon molds isn't up yet while the molds for the reissues are at a factory that is able to run product out. Just a thought.
