    Where you at? :lol  Also, what Prime and Bee? Prime Prime? I'm confused. So is your Target. :lol 
    Yeah, you get it! :D  Spending extra on shipping... ughhh...
    But here's my bigger problem: suddenly, the Swerve you get in the mail has a horribly botched paint job on his chest or face! :(  Now it's a hassle and a half to return a $10 toy? Probably not: you keep it to save yourself time and now you're STILL looking for that Swerve cause the cosmetic imperfection erks you. :( 

    To be fair, these guys are bigger than "Legend" class. But yeah, prices are going up... but you're being negative and overlooking the HUGE positive: they made a G1-esque, TRANSFORMING toy!!!! :eek:  I'm happy to pay higher prices if they can just make more IDW or G1-inspired stuff. Can we start emailing Hasbro with those sentiments? (Well, we can probably leave the whole "happy to pay more" out of the message! :lol )
    I did not know I could cancel once in my pile... might start doing that... :-/

    I'm glad there all finally out but since I have little time to hunt and less money to finance the hunt I went the BBTS route got a few other items shipping as well so shipping cost wasn't bad...forgot to add Bumblebee to the order before I shipped :( ...Friday afternoon can't get hear soon enough...

    I'm hoping for Hasbro getting their act together and break that viscous cycle in the case of the Legends Class Insecticons at least. That upcoming Botcon panel should be a tell tell sign if they're going to honor the other 2 figures or whether they'll just repaint Legends Starscream again.

    It's not really a normal legends they are closer to scouts from Cybertron and the extra weapon.

    I'm pretty conservative and I don't see how it's price gouging it's only a dollar more than those Cyberverse Commanders were and the new 2 packs are still the same price as the data disks were.

    I'm wondering if Cliffjumper and some one else will be the next wave or if it's going to be the gears and acid storm next.

    I still hope Gnaw and Gnash is a fat Sharkticon with a little alicon targetmaster an has spike club tail.

    that's a great price for a legends/scout class figure with a targetmaster partner. I don't see the problem.

    That's good news. Unfortunately, my Target didn't have either of them when I checked today
