    I'm never gonna knock sellers for getting what they can from sales but I just looked up SG Rodimus prices and goddamn. I think I got it and the armore for like 100 bucks a few years ago.

    Henkei Wildrider works for Scythe armor too and it's not nearly as pricey.

    Yeah, last time I looked, the bot and armor together ended up over $700. I only need Shadow Scythe to complete the TFX section but I'll never spend that much. I'll just live vicariously thru you, Kuma.

    I blame this thread for making me just now buy an FP deluxe Insecticons set off eBay. Which WASN'T in the budget.

    I would take a whole line of FP styled insect ninja robots.

    Also, looking for an FP Blue Corer. I have a silver or a red one for trade, or money. If anyone has an extra.

    Got some extra insecticons in today but they had undisclosed reprolabels applied... if I can't look up a good way to remove them gotta return them which sucks.

    White vinegar worked for me. I hate stickers.

    I went with goo gone and even though it took an hour the labels came off fine. However on Thundershred it turns out the blades were actually glued to the gauntlet for lord-knows-what reason. I had spare blades so no huge deal but the gauntlet itself is pretty ugly in the front with that residue so if they don't have a replacement then it's being returned.

    Does anyone mind a bit of FP-related bartering?

    If anyone has a couple of spare kunai (knives) from backfiery I'd gladly pay or even trade one of those orange core bots.
