Agreed.

The APC Bulkhead was teased just over a year ago with no updates at all, so I'd hold off on selling him for a little while unless you have a 2nd one to hold onto so you actually have a Bulkhead in your collection.

 

That is a rough decision and I don't know the best thing to do. However, here's some data points to consider.
1. We don't know for sure that they will be putting out a Bulkhead yet.
2. The Ebay prices for Breakdown have taken a nosedive since the 10th anniversary reissue was announced. However, FE Optimus still gets about $100 on Ebay with the APC releases available, so KOs may not have a noticeable effect on that demand.

With this in mind, I might wait a bit to see unless you need the money.

 

That's my thinking as well. There's always going to be potential buyers who (1) don't trust KOs, (2) are morally against them, and (3) never even heard of them.

Not to mention that there are surely folks who would like having a new-in-box official release no matter what, even in addition to the KO.

 

Personally I'm not a big fan of selling toys even for a large markup but the only thing I'd consider here is whether you're okay with living without a TFP Bulkhead. There's no guarantee that the KO will ever happen (even if APC gets around to it, these companies shut down sometimes or they get shut down) so you risk just plain not having one. That seems like more risk than I'd personally be willing to take for a mere $50-60 profit (given that the KO will probably be around $40 and you've still got to deal with shipping).

True but KOs have been known to affect prices in the past. The MP seekers went for around $200 each until the KOs came out and their prices dropped. They might be back up there again since the KOs dried up but there definitely was an impact.

 

Well, I missed the first round of APC Megatrons due to having my finances tied up in other stuff. I'm preordering this one.

Now I have to decide if my original APC Prime is good enough, or if I should pick up the shinier one.

 

I just got Prime 2.0 and Megs a couple weeks ago. I love them both! But man that battle damaged Meg's...I just paid the $1 preorder deposit. Might as well reserve one. I may sell my regular Megs if I like this one that much.

 

Well...and ShowZ immediately asked me to pay the balance, so apparently these are ready to ship? That wasn't much of a pre-order period, LOL.

Now I have 14 days to decide if I really want him or not. Hmm...

 

I'd order the new Megs, but I already have two of the first version (one open, one sealed), and really don't want to spend the money on a third one.

 

I don't really want to either, but each time I see those pics of the battle damage... Ugh

 

Yeah...agreed.  

 

Screw it. I ordered the battle damaged version. I think I have a problem.

I'll probably just keep whichever version I like best and sell the other one on eBay.

Still would've preferred it if they had used the PRID mold instead, but I'm in regardless.

Botcon recolors please APC....as well as info on Bulkhead.

 

Keep it going, APC Toys! I am in.

 

I would hope for a slight downsizing, but completely expect a 1:1 KO.

 

So, which Arcee mold does this look like to you? I'm not clear on the differences.

 

It's the First Edition mould
FE on the left, PRID on the right

 

 

Thinking about it, had they somehow managed to get those shoulder pads to go on her back as wings as they should be, I would've been happier with this mold being the one they're using.

Still hope they'll downsize her to the PRID one's size though, as FE Arcee is just too damn tall.

 

Ah, cool. Thanks, JoeTBoyd!

So her PRID mould is more show-accurate?
