    Preordered. Now if BBTS can get me sons of cybertron set, that would be perfect.

    Wish I could afford this set. Thankfully, my original G1 Preds are still in great condition.

    I have the D-62 reissue and the TFCC Piranacon, those cost me enough, and now both being re-released in the same year different enough that I feel the urge to buy... last year was a pretty barren one for me as a G1 head; this 2010 campaign... Ghost MP SS... glad to get some love even if it is 'all at once'.

    That was the Classics Sons of Cybertron set they said they weren't getting in, which is a limited release. The Animated Sons of Cybertron set is a mass (Japanese) release, and not as limited.

    Because Predaking is a Takara release and the Seacons are from Hasbro.

    Takara knows all about profiteering.

    Also the size of it, Predaking is made off 5 big robots (about Clasics Prime size, so basically 5 voyagers), while Piranacons have 5 small scout-sized bot and a bigger one (who is smaller than a Predaking bot).

    Size, weight, diecast, and more paint apps for starters. And remember, Piranacon has one deluxe while Predaking has five.

    I'm definitely not going to miss this. I saw a G1 Predaking in a display case at a collectibles shop years ago, and have wanted one ever since. This one is actually "affordable"!
