    How about $300 sealed.

    TRANSFORMERS SHADOW COMMAND MEGATRON FACTORY SEALED | eBay

    $121.80 loose.

    Leader Class Shadow Command Megatron Complete and in Great Shape | eBay

    I know it wasn't the easiest to find but I just don't see it being worth so much. Sure it is a cool deco and 10x better looking than the first version but I would never have guessed it would have been worth so much. Now if there are any left in the wild they won't be for too long. As for me I'm not parting with mine. It looks great, although one of the knee pads is loose on mine.

    It's a mystery how garbage figures end up being worth so much. There's no rhyme or reason to it.

    It must be just a temporary blip in the average intelligence level of the general populace. If not, well we may as well all kill ourselves now as this is some fucked up shit right here.

    Yeah, we've been shitting on this for a while now on Cybertron.ca, and the best part is that it's just one example of people using a narrowed market to their advantage.

    I was surprised to see this trend on Shadow Command Megatron of all things. I bought mine on clearance for $20 about a year ago.

    I call shenanigans.

    I actually wanted one when he was new and was never able to find one - pity about the price increase - it's not a good enough mould to pay that sort of premium for. I was hesitant to even pay $40.00 for it when it was new.
