    Blurg. No interest in paying for this set this month, but I want a damn Colossus. I don't mind buying it in January when the crossfire set comes out so hopefully there are some still around at retail price. Seems there are still a bunch available on the preorder, almost 200 between BBTS and RK, not even counting TFSource. Guess I'll take my chances and wait because as is this set sucks and I have no desire to have a $130 shitty toy sit around collecting dust until the repainted Crossfire set comes out.

    Again I want the Onslaught but I can't justify the price just for him.

    I'll buy and wait. I don't mind. Better to have it now than wait and find out I have to get stuck paying a crap ton more.

    Oooh, so it's TakaraTomy, not Hasbro.

    Usually, when I see "Asia exclusive", I think Hasbro(because GDOs)

    Neat.

    It's mostly that there is a ton of stuff coming out in November so it's a bad time to spend $130 on something I can't even enjoy until January. I'll keep an eye on stock and if it gets to around 10-15 per store I'll probably bite, but I'm gonna hope that it stays in stock a while. While this may be an Asia exclusive, it certainly doesn't seem limited like a store or convention exclusive. Hell, they may even churn more of these guys out in a bit. Do we know that is was just a single run?

    Kind of glad I cancelled my preorder. No money for this.

    I wonder if this means this will get a cheaper Takara release like the United Magnus will next year.

    I have the Target Exclusive ROTF Bruticus Maximus, but I can't see paying $129 for this Takara brand.

    Colour for this Bruticus seems more uglier

    I remain firm that there'd be practically no demand for this (as much as I like the mold) if it wasn't for the FP rerelease.

    I'll take my pleasure playing with the normal version till I receive the add-on kit.

    Putting it in United packaging means I'm going to buy it, as I have all the other United toys released thus far.

    Anything on TransformersAsia.com is TakaraTomy, the stuff you're finding in TRU is Hasbro.

    Can't tell on my phone but do the figures have any chrome on them? I remember reading on tfsourse that they were rumored to have chrome
