    Was just a matter of time for this to get announced. I'm in for this. All one set is ok by me.

    I'm not paying as much as the figure itself over again for a poorly-designed piecemeal upgrade kit, especially if they haven't fixed the issue with the replacement backpack not having the proper locking connectors.

    The only parts I even care about are the guns and maybe the articulated legs, but no way am I shelling out for all that useless garbage.
    Maybe some enterprising bootlegger will sell KOs of this and the Scorponok set eventually. One can only hope.

    Yeppets. Not paying that much. Need the gun/shield if anyone wants to sell me them.

    Fuck that, they are charging more than all 3 Scorponok kits combined (40+40+45=125 vs 130) and I'm not even interested in the leg extensions. And this is just a recolor w/o any new engineering. I was expecting at LEAST a $10 discount, not a $5 upcharge. This went from a lock in to a hard pass for me.

    DNA can keep the kit for this price. I don't need my Black Zarak looks identical as Scorponok anyway.

    I like DNA Design's products and I enjoyed the Scorponok upgrades but this is way too much. $130? That's ridiculous, especially since it's just a repaint.

    Wow.

    And just think, with maple money being as terrible as it is, it'll be $180+ here in Canada. That's like 3/4 of a MSRP ER Scorponok! :eek:

    Oof, that price?!?! Was expecting 99.99-109.99. Well, put my PO in at TCP. If found for cheaper somewhere else , will get it there instead.

    Yeah, I'd have ordered if it were around $100-110. Not going to bother now. I know it's only $20 more, but when I have no need for the legs, that is a huge chunk of the kit not being used.

    Yeah, no. I was considering it to make him different, but not for almost the same cost as another Titan. I’d rather spend that on an actual Transformer.
