    One of the Taobao seller has listed the RRP as 1280 Yuan, which is approximately 199 USD before shipment

    I really wasn't planning to spend more than 200$ on this guy :(  Seriously, every company is FT now.

    For around $240-260 I'm definitely waiting for English reviews.

    Ah, I remember those days. Wouldn't respond to requests to stop spamming the thread, and uploaded 50 customs of the same Megatron mold.

    Yes. I don't use it often, but there's a few people on these boards that are just toxic as fuck and only looking to pick a fight.

    Geez yeah will definitely wait for reviews then. This would be the most I've ever paid for a figure so it better be good. I would have to think long and hard about it even though this is my favorite movie Megatron design

    There is also the possibility that tfsexpress will sell him for less than the other retailers like they did with some fanshobby figures

    He sometimes post something useful, I believe he is german, that's maybe why he is so cold hearted. Unlike one guy who I think is just an asshole, but I haven't ignored anyone yet, no matter how annoying I think that person is.

    I don't know why people like that their figures weigh so much...

    1280 RMB + shipping... I think NA price will be $250 +
    Well, I'm glad I'm not that interested in this figure in the first place.

    $200 and up is way too expensive even if it’s good quality. Even Toyworld had To include a base with a flight stand, lights and sounds, and a bunch of extra guns with lights and a charger to hit the $200 mark in their Optimus. That’s just pure insanity on their part given their reputation has been in the mud for years.

    I’m desperate for a Dotm Megatron but that’s just nuts.

    they'll charge 300+ for their Shatter, just watch
    in the (dare I say it) post-pandemic world every 3p company just catch up their prices with TT, not just FT anymore

    Only figures I’ve paid more than $200 for are my 3A TLK Optimus (which is huge and ultra detailed and has amazing posability) and Gcreation Grimlock (which was barely worth the price but overall I’m happy with it).

    Eh, if it turns out really good I wouldn't really mind the price. I paid around $230 for my GCreation Wrath and felt that he was completely worth it and one of the best third-party figures I own. It all comes down to the execution for me.

    If it is well made, I won't mind paying $200.
