    I'd say that's a very good price for a Targetmaster Cyclonus. Nice one!

    I would say it's a better than average price, but not really a steal.
    The funny thing is the things I considered to be average in price will usually be considered a good price in the forum, so maybe it's just me who always getting below-than-average deals? :p 

    When I first started collecting I got a Nmint swoop with a beatup box for $110, and everyone was saying it's a great deal, then after some research I realized what I got was at best an average deal.(and price for swoop now days average for about $60-$70)

    The worst deal I've ever had was starscream complete(not all parts are orignal) for $73, not really a surprise because that's my first g1 figure and I was a total newbie. Some people still telling me "that's about the right price".
