    Even if they (Hasbro) did, it's almost guaranteed to look like a$$...

    Including shipping this works out to about $62 per figure. That's about my maximum for a figure.

    Sold!

    Yay, I'll have a Devestator. Now if only I could remember there names...

    Oh, I'm also a hypocrite in case anyone was wondering. I try to avoid BBTS because regardless of the circumstances I've had bad experiences preordering from them and claimed I would not do so again. Damn you Giant!

    BBTS is a way to go on Giant, because Maketoys, unlike TFC, controls their prices, so the prices aren't really fluxing between domestic online retailers and foreign, which means the difference = shipping.

    So I fully support nabbing it from BBTS for Maketoys stuff :p  (UNLIKE their takara Prime stuff.. x.x)

    Good to know. I'll probably hold off and see what the other retails are going to sell this set for.... especially since BBTS is going to hit me with sales tax :eek:

    Is the late June date official or just a guess? I'm contemplating right now and I still want to get MMC's Sixshot figure as well. Wallet's not gonna like me if I try to get both...
