    If I can find the F-14, I'll pick it up.

    $4 for a mini-con?!?!

    Seriously?

    You should have kept your $4 attached to the mini-con port on your wallet, now it's weaker.

    Thanks for the news, though....

    Man, that is a bit pricey... But still, that Supressor... <3

    I think I'd rather pick up the 12 pack whenever I see it again.

    not a great price, but not bad if you only wanted one or two specific ones.

    Exactly the reason why I picked up Boltflash and Suppressor! 8 beans was a bit rich, but better than 22 for the 12 pack.

    Love the little packaging, but glad I found the multi-pack @ K-Mart locally.

    Wow these are really overpriced. So much for Big Lots being a "discount" retailer.

    The fact that I wanted all twelve Mini-Cons from the K-Mart pack, not just six overpriced ones, turns me off from buying them. I did see RH two-packs for $7.50.

    I saw these guys at my local big lots for $2, I first thought they were $3 but the lady at the front told me they were $2, so I went back and got all the ones they have.

    Not a bad deal for Mini-Cons.

    Bodyblock and Makeshift I like the best, Suppressor and Boltflash are cool too.

    I wonder if they'll release the other 6 mini-cons loose too.

    $2 isn't bad, $4 is just ridiculous. Fine for a Legend, but a Mini-Con is so much less. I might grab one or two if I see them for a reasonable price, but then again I'll probably never see them period, so much for that.

    So much for close out prices. We need close out of the close out. :) Probably cost more because they had to make new packaging for them but still ... I'm glad I got mine at Kmart.

    These toys are exactly the same as the ones in the K-Mart 12 pack. I suppose this is one way Hasbro can still sell the same toys while maintaining K-Mart's exclusivity. I have not seen these in any stores, even online, so this packaging must be extremely rare. Buying all 12 would cost $48, twice as much as the K-Mart 12 pack. Then again, you are paying for more plastic and cardboard.

    I just wish that Heavytread was one of choices. I wanted to grab a few extras of him, so that they could hangout with Legends Warpath.
