    Naaaa... I think Centered looks better now lol. How in the hell did you take off the Dry Label.!?? Guessing you didn't press down on it?? Looks good and welcome to the club lol

    EDiT: Old pic as it got scratched now but only nitpick I had is that it doesn't Pop w/o a white background imo. Maybe the Chrome labels work better.

    Thanks. I think it looks better too. Less gaudy.
    I used my finger nail, rubbing alcohol and a qtip. It reminds me why I don’t use them they are a pain to get off.

    Oh that's right! The hood wasn't painted and is plastic! When you said rubbing alcohol I was "Wait what.!?"

    You can usually use 70% isopropyl without damaging the paint. 90% plus will remove tampos...

    I believe that I read the trade war with China had escalated to tariffs on all products being shipped from China? Those additional costs get passed on to the consumer.

    I guess a reissue means the original sold out so they’re within their rights to up the price. Inflation is a thing.

    30 years ago a Mars bar was 15p!

    When prices inflate, that’s the very definition of inflation.

    Not all goods and services will go up by the same amount, or at the same rate. Usually the ‘inflation rates’ that we see on the news are an agglomeration of multiple things (house prices, fuel, retail prices of food etc.) and are just an average. It’s not uncommon for prices of individual items to increase drastically in a short space of time.

    I think that was only on certain products. Toys weren't one of them

    I think it’s more a case that they seem to not have happened. Apparently some deal was made so they didn’t take effect.

    It's not from FansToys. This is a TCP/ToyDojo exclusive trick. BBTS still charges 179.99 (tax not included). Those two shops charge a price slightly below tax, so it's like a sweetspot. The difference is the tax goes to local authorities while this "tax" goes to TCP/ToyDojo.

    I think someone needs to alert the tax authorities.

    on the plus side both those places offer free ship above 150...and tcp does the reward points for every 150 spent. so yeah its 10 more for slacking on picking him up but in the grand scheme its not a huge deal.

    Friends don’t let friends buy MP Coneheads. It’ll get better out there soon guys, I promise! There’s a lot more Stunitcons on their way!

    Also if you want some Coneheads, grab a nice Maketoys Dirge so we can make sure the other 2 get made!

    ToyDojo charges appropriate sales taxes. What they list their product price at is irrelevant.

    I'm not really sure what you think the authorities have to do with anything?
