    about $140 for reissue predaking when it first came out, that was an import to UK so pricey.

    Probably around 90$ for MP Starscream in 2007. I will never spend that much money on a single TF ever again.

    Whoops, chose the wrong range... coulda sworn MP Grimlock cost me more than 151, but it was only (ha, only) 140 with shipping.

    Somewhere around $250 for a complete, near-mint G1 Scorponok. Next closest was the Predaking reissue for about $175 or so.
