Man, anime Astrotrain and recolour minibots (Dimension Exploration Team), I don’t even want to think of how much I paid for them because I missed them the first time round. Astrotrain I could understand, but I’d never understand why the minibots are worth that much.

Yeah that Anime Astrotrain is going to be a nightmare, along with the recolor minibots. Ugh.

Soon, there will be a new term, “vintage-reissue”. <br /><br />Of course I agree Maz is to blame for a lot of stuff – donuts, delinquency and Decepticons… <br /><br />Man, FGGG and Sunstorm for $41 is very very cheap.

I think it has been all those Diaclone articles I've been reading from Maz lately. So unfortunately I only bought Detritus new and will thus have to go back and pay stupid prices for most of these.

Problem is that she is pretty rare, which has me be contempt with the version I bought at TFsource.

However, I know that Metroplex Encore sold very poorly in most places, so that could be a reason why.<br /><br />Or it could be that Metrotitan has such piss poor colours that they predict his sales would be even worse and just shelved the idea of reissuing him.<br /><br />There are Heroic Decepticonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017245701029351849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-86942882700229721022013-07-09T23:46:18.751+08:002013-07-09T23:46:18.751+08:00Which ones are you looking for?

Love the idea of owning certain event-based exclusives. Hate both the fact that I will not and the fact that both toylines and characters have been shoe-horned because of this.

I didn't think of them as "official" G1 figures and thus objects of scorn. Within the past four or five years, I've backtracked from that stance and must now pay astronomical prices for all of these guys. Now I grab eHobby figures when they're released. <br /><br />Are youOptimal Omegahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12112470936085807477noreply@blogger.com
