    Which should I get first that will likely sell out first?

    Impossible to say as you are comparing a purchase of around £/$100 with another costing around £/$600.

    if you can't decide on something, get both.

    and send a sympathy card to your wallet later.

    If you can afford TFC Hercules I can't see what's stopping you from getting the Insecticons as well?

    :lol 

    Good point! It's like asking, 'should I get a cheeseburger or a new car?'

    Causality Insecticons. I'm biased, because the insecticons were some of my favorite G1 characters. Also, the price of Hercules just seems like too much to me.

    You're choices are confusing. Should I get $150 or $600. If you can go the $600 just top it off with the $150.


    My actual answer is go Hercules cuz you can afford it. But my real answer is, if you can afford Herc why not just get both?

    Get both, chances are if you don't like them you'll be able to resell them for twice what you paid for them.

    Can't really go wrong with either but, if you only have the choice of getting one, I'd go with Hercules.

    If I could do it then I would. All you have to do is look at the original price of City Commander against what people are asking for one now. A complete Hercules will cost thousands in a few years.

    I think Herc will peek at $1500.

    Get the Insecticons, they won't last as long at retail as Herc.

    I plan to get both. I just didn't think this question through before I posted it late last night.

    New rule for me: Be careful what I post late at night, lol. :lolol 

    Nothing. What I SHOULD have asked was:

    Which will sell out first? Hercules or Insecticons? Or which should I get first that will likely sell out first?

    That is what I should have asked. I think I will EDIT my original post to reflect this. Thanks.
