I love the color scheme on him and I'm wondering if he'll be easy to find, cheaper, etc, etc.... http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS14742&mode=retail Give me your thoughts guys, thanks.
Don't preorder from BBTS unless there's A LOT of other things you want. I feel that their price is far too high and the shipping for just that is just as bad. I say wait and order it elsewhere (or find it at retail)... Movie stuff is HOT, so it's likely to be easier to find than other end-of-the-line figures like Armada Nemesis Prime, etc.
You'll be able to grab him at TRU or WM easy enough. I wouldn't stress a BBTS pre-order, for the same reasons SB1 already gave.
They do pack well, but I feel like they're losing (at least my) business because of the unfriendly single-item shipping prices. I don't like to wait for my shit to show up all at once, I buy it as I want it. Enough of my BBTS rant, though... I'm personally going to play the "if I see it, I'll buy it, but if not, no big deal" game. I know I'll see it (I've seen EVERY mainline/Classics figure since the launch of Cybertron in stores) so I don't have much to worry about. Depending on your location, though, you may not find one. That's where a wanted thread here comes in. There's almost always someone that will pick something up for cost, gas, and shipping. (hint hint) WM = Walmart Target doesn't get abbreviated TRU = Toys R Us
Yup, gotta agree with the other guys. If Cliffjumper is any indication, Stealth BB should be easy to find since it's not exactly what was in the movie.
Really? I live in Australia and find BBTS no more expensive for individual items than most ebay sellers from the US, and for me the only option BBTS gives is USPS. But I always use there Pile of Loot feature and combine them into one big order and save on shipping campaired to indivisual items.
For a single item order, at least in the US, UPS is $8, USPS Priority is $13, Parcel Post is more than that. On top of their mark up (especially for the figure in question), it's a little more than most of us would like to pay. Like I mentioned earlier, I don't like to wait before I get my stuff. I also rarely have cash. Those two concepts do not favor BBTS.
It also helps BBTS from my perspective that we pay really high prices for Transformers. With the current exchange rate we should pay $12 (including tax) for a deluxe, but Hasbro charges us $28, it makes BBTS a good option for me.
