$45 for Henkei Smokescreen, is it worth it?

[heroic_decepticon]

$45 for Henkei Smokescreen, is it worth it?

I'd say yes!

[gdmetro]

$45 for Henkei Smokescreen, is it worth it?

Mate, not only is that worth it, that is a friggin STEAL!! Grab and Run.:eek:

[jazzcomp]

how much is classics devy worth?

[Hursticon]

$45 for Henkei Smokescreen, is it worth it?


I'd say yes!


Mate, not only is that worth it, that is a friggin STEAL!! Grab and Run.:eek:

I'd have to agree with both of these well informed guys Skywarp, definitely worth it and definitely grab it and run dude as the Henkei figures are in ridiculously high demand and fetch some silly prices! :eek:;)


how much is classics devy worth?

You know Jazzcomp, I can't say I've ever seen one on eBay so I'm not sure dude, but I know that they were never released at Australian retail. :o

Yup, basically any henkei below $50 is worth it as a rule of thumb (there are some exceptions like galvatron though...)

[Vector Prime]

$45 for Henkei Smokescreen, is it worth it?

That's cheap as chips mate.


how much is classics devy worth?

Good luck finding him - but expect to pay $200+ for a MISB one IMO


Yup, basically any henkei below $50 is worth it as a rule of thumb (there are some exceptions like galvatron though...)

Galvatron's still worth paying up to $50 for IMO - he's an improvement over the Universe version and I actually don't mind him or his transformation.

I wouldn't pay that sort of money for Henkei Dinobot or Cheetor though.

[blackie]

so happy i completed henkei last year ^_^

[Doubledealer]

$45 for Henkei Smokescreen, is it worth it?

I paid $80 for one (shipped) a month or so ago. Does that answer your question? :p

oh, you're right. There are crap pieces like Dinobot, Cheetor, Hot Shot and Grimlock that one should not pay $50 for. Galvatron, I don't know. The Henkei Galvatron does have very nice colours and paint apps, but its the design that bugs me...

Thank you!

What are combiners g1 mib worth?
What about re-issue versions?

[blackie]

use completed listings on ebay
that gives a good idea of the market price

[SkyWarp91]

Can't find a MIB PCC Grimstone with Dinobots or Steamhammer with Constructicon set at any of my local woolies - is it worth $50 EACH online?

[jazzcomp]

how do i search for completed listings? Haven't tried that.

How much is WST series 2 box set of 12 (sealed) worth?

[5FDP]

how do i search for completed listings? Haven't tried that.

You could only do that if you knew the item number before the auction ended... or just add the item to 'watched items' and wait for it to finish. It is the best way to get an understanding on how much something is worth.

Of course it's a double-edged sword because if there is something rare that you are after which only appears on eBay once every so often, you take the risk of bidding without knowing it's full worth. I've seen many 'rare' items differ by hundreds of dollars over a 6-12 month period.

Huh?

No, you just search for something and then click 'choose more' in 'show only'. Then tick show only 'completed listings.'

Incidentally, I've been looking for Grimstone and the Dinobots for months now - there still aren't that many out there online and most have had high postage prices like this one: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Transformers-PCC-GRIMSTONE-Dinobots-Power-Core-Combiner-/230605151543?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35b1235d37

I believe this is the cheapest one on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Transformers-Power-Core-Grimstone-w-Dinobots-MISB-new-/130510550921?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1e6308f789

And this is the cheapest Steamhammer: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Transformers-Power-Core-Combiners-Steamhammer-figures-/360356007275?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item53e6e44d6b

You can get Steamhammer from TFSource for US$36 shipped.

So I got a legends starscream the other day, i was about to open it and I realised that it was a double sheller, there are two outer shells on the bubble, they are both clued in at the bottom!

is this sort of thing considered rare/valuable by any section of the fandom or should I just go ahead and open it?

I'd keep it sealed and go get myself another one to open (if I was you) - they're only $5 so it's not exactly going to break the bank. :p

At least it's something unique...

[jaydisc]

Open it. It's worthless.

Is $85.00 a good price for g1 calcar complete with box and instructions?

[Sky Shadow]

Is $85.00 a good price for g1 calcar complete with box and instructions?

If it's in good condition, then yes. You could find Calcar for cheaper, but I would say the box and instructions are hard to find these days.

[heroic_decepticon]

hi all, I am posting this question in the "Questions" thread and the "Price Check" thread.

Since I broke the news that I have acquired a Diaclone "Marlboor" version Wheeljack, I have received a deluge of requests from all over the world asking me to sell this piece.

I received an average of 5 requests per day from people I have never ever spoken to on boards and emails, which I consider a lot because I don't even get a blip of such interest when I post stuff I think is rare like C-350: Rabbicrater, God Primus, etc. Even Minelba only gets the occasional mention or request to sell.

I thought, what in the world? What's with this piece? Is it really that rare and desirable?

With that in mind, I have 2 questions:

1. What is your view on its rarity compared to other rare G1 TFs (eg: Artfire, dino-casettes) and compared to other rare diaclone pieces (eg: blue Bluestreak, white Sunstreaker, red/black Tracks, blue Swoop)?

2. What do you think is a reasonable price?

***

Photo of the piece:

Seen them for about $500 - $600 I think because its usually around half that for the separate ones.

[Prowl]

Anyone know what is a reasonable price for a MIB E-Hobby Overcharge?

[Sky Shadow]

Anyone know what is a reasonable price for a MIB E-Hobby Overcharge?

You should be able to get one shipped for just a bit less than $100.

[5FDP]

You should be able to get one shipped for just a bit less than $100.

If you can find one for that price Prowl, buy it ;) I paid approx. $120 for mine from toywiz (http://www.toywiz.com/) about 5 years ago. Even though they are well known for their high prices, that was the cheapest I found at the time.

[heroic_decepticon]

How much would one expect to fork out to get a decent D-306 Hydra and Buster set?

Agree with Valkyrie there. However, i don't think ppl will sell it for that price. It's more likely to go for 750 to 850 online.

Overcharges are relatively plentiful on eBay (which is appropriate considering his bio and odd considering his name.) Even right now there are five that should be about $100AU shipped:

You could bid up to $87 on this MIB one and get it for $100AU shipped http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/G1-Transformers-E-HOBBY-OVERCHARGE-MIB-/170655427840?pt=AU_Action_Figures&hash=item27bbdb2d00

These three are MISB Buy It Now for $104AU shipped: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TRANSFORMERS-E-HOBBY-EHOBBY-OVERCHARGE-BLITZWING-MISB-/250521813042?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a54438032

You could make an offer on this MISB one - even at its most expensive this would only be $110AU shipped: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TRANSFORMERS-G1-E-HOBBY-EXCLUSIVE-72-OVERCHARGE-MISB-/320703758075?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aab6efefb

Wasn't disagreeing with you SS, just saying that under $100 would be a great deal considering I paid more for mine over 5 years ago. I didn't even check current eBay pricing. Obviously if there are any toy investors reading this, don't buy an Overcharge if you're wanting to cash in later :p

$50 is exactly what I paid for my own dude and it was sans missiles, I've seen it go for much more though - $70 to $100. :eek:
(Hence why I launched at the one I bought :D)

Hmmm, maybe I should get it. But I bought something for you instead, but I dunno if you are gonna want it. One of the figures (I realise now) is a BM figure, but the other is a BW figure at least.

BM? - Hmm...
There is a couple I'm curious on but as you can imagine, not too many; Otherwise I wouldn't have sold the lot that we did at the Parra Fair so long ago. :p
The BW figure intrigues me, I just hope it isn't Heinlad or Cohrada as they're currently on their way. :o

I'm pretty positive the BM is one you might want, he is a cool figure, and really cool coulour scheme. The BW figure is not either of those, so you are safe :)

Hey guys, just wondering what one might expect to fork out for a loose Elephorca and Drancron?

[GoktimusPrime]

Hey guys, just wondering what one might expect to fork out for a loose Elephorca and Drancron?
I'd pay $30 for each. $35 tops.

It's Elphaorpha btw. I know IDW called him Elphaorca... but that's a stuff up on their part. (-_-)

Btw, how much would people be willing to pay for:
+ Loose TF1 Leader Optimus Prime
+ Loose ROTF Leader Optimus Prime
?

Thank you.

[Sky Shadow]

Hey guys, just wondering what one might expect to fork out for a loose Elephorca and Drancron?

A lot, in that they come up extremely rarely and in Eletelephoney's case it's the only version of the mould that doesn't have GPS. I suspect I know which auction you're looking at - first I'd see if you can get a more reasonable shipping quote.

I'd say the lot of Elephop, Drancron and Injector is worth $100 loose, plus shipping.

My Drancron is here (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showpost.php?p=131713&postcount=14) - sadly it looks like Imageshack has eaten the photo of him in beast mode:

Thanks Goki, Sky Shadow for both of your inputs. ;):)

Ideally, $30 - $35 is what I'd like to pay but as you point out SS, they are indeed rare to come by nowadays and as for the auction?, you're also spot on there too. ;):p
My line of thinking was to get the harder to acquire BW II/Neo figures out of the way 1st, be that for availability or cost reasons, so that I could concentrate on the easier stuff later as a significant portion of both lines are purely retool/repaints anyway. :cool:

Elephorca/Elephorpha, either way he's a cool looking bugger and like TM Megatron enjoys the benefit of proper Japanese materials testing but I am very glad to say that both my BW Grimlock and Torca are in great condition considering this - I wish I could say the same for my Pink-Toed friend... :o

I sold an Overbite in much similar condition as you described for $95.

Of the individual boxed Seacons, Tentakil and Skalor are usually worth less than the others, but the price you were quote is not unreasonable.

Guys

Boxed, I'd say around $300. Loose maybe $250? It's the only way to get three very pretty toys, but obviously you could get the same basic moulds (except for Cobybot's head) for much less if you're not desperate for those particular decos.

[Paulbot]

Are people still selling the Henkei exclusive seekers (Thundercracker, Skywarp, Dirge, Thrust)? Or is to hard to judge now because of the KOs. Now that three of the four have been Hasbro'd I wonder if the price has dropped.

i got mine 2 mths ago from a friend in Japan. It worked out to be about A$200 MISB. However, the killer is the shipping... cost me about $75 via EMS from Japan... :eek:

IMO I think you'll be lucky to get what you originally paid for them. I only paid $50 for my henkei skywarp and jaydisc has had thrust up for sale for ages at $90-100 and that hasn't moved. My advice is to put them up for auction starting at what you paid and hope for the best

[jazzcomp]

want a henkei skywarp too :)

So I need some cash in the next 30 days and I'm considering selling the few transformers collection series I have BUT I don't know how much to put them up for. Here's the list and relative condition (from memory)
TFC 0 - complete with folder, opened, some shelf wear
TFC 1 - complete, opened, minor shelf wear
TFC 2 - complete, opened, minor shelf wear
TFC 3 - complete, opened, minor shelf wear
TFC 9 - opened, minor shelf wear, mission booklet from box
TFC 16 - complete, opened, minor shelf wear
TFC 17 - opened, minor shelf wear, missing scimitar
TFC 20 - complete, opened, very minor self wear

All I can say is TFC00 should go for 200-250.

The rest should range from 60-80. Starscream be arn 80-90 if it still has the DVD.

Just asking how much these books would be? I originally bought them years ago at $40 a pop (the larger books) and the hard cover one was a little more. The smaller books at the top were slightly cheaper. Also one other point is that 'Best of Transformers' book has been signed by Simon Furman.

Considering buying a G1 Ramhorn and Eject complete and with cardback/ techspecs. What's a fair price?

Also considering selling a Complete Targetmaster Triggerhappy with boxes and instructions. I don't remember what I paid for it.

Doubledealer, Squeezeplay, Blitzwing, and possibly Powermaster Prime :p

55 cents on a good one.
I'll give you $1 :P

[heroic_decepticon]

mp05 + accessory kit?

MP-05 is not expensive. AU$130 to 150 ought to do it (not including shipping).

The accessory pack is pretty hard to come by. I bought mine for $80 was back when. Don't know how much it'd cost now.

Also considering selling a Complete Targetmaster Triggerhappy with boxes and instructions. I don't remember what I paid for it.

For Ramhorn and Eject, it largely depends on figure and card condition. Under 60-70 is good but sealed or semi-sealed anywhere from 80+

Triggerhappy...depends on condition of course, but if it's the Japanese version, i might be into it. If it's US box and all's good then about 130+

[Skullcruncher]

http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i354/valkyrie1976/2011-07-31141852.jpg

Those books were really expensive back when they came out.

I haven't noticed a lot of interest in these though as most stories have been reprinted again by IDW. These original trades were of better quality though, particularly the UK reprints. I think you could ask $40 for the UK trades and the hardcover US trades and around $30 for the softcover US ones.

The Best of UK/Simon Furman signed book should be worth a bit more. I think you could ask for a high ammount and then drop it if there's no interest?

The Wreckers book is cheap at Target if people can still find it. I don't think you'd get more than $20 for it at this stage. Maybe hang on to that until it goes out of print. There's likely to always be demand for that story from fans.

Heh yeah japanese box - change that 1 into a 2 at least :eek:

Oh yeah! I've never seen a JP Triggerhappy, though i wouldn't mind one...had a Triggerhappy as a kid and I consider it a miracle that I never broke Blowpipe with that really ill conceived joint! I used to have a JP Slugslinger, sold the box and insert alone for approx 70something! I'm beginning to regret doing that, but for me, if it's MIBs (Strictly Speaking)...that includes instructions and Cybertron/Destron Card too (where applicable).

Is that price accurate even in Japan Skull?

Yeah the Takara G1 boxed Target Masters seem seem harder to find than the Headmasters for sure, usually looking at around $250+ for MIB one on ebay. I recall seeing a triggerhappy in osaka but the was around $300 so i didnt take much notice. Unfortunatly most of the takara G1's on ebay are poor quality which pushes up the price for good ones even more. :(

How much for the japanese exclusive headmasters with no box? Is there one thats harder to come by than the rest? :confused:

After the advent of the KOs, I'd say about $150 to 180 each without box, with Shuffler being the most expensive... $700+ without box.

Considering getting myself a King Poseidon gift set, what's a fair price for them these days.

I've been offered one with a somewhat average box for $650

I've been offered one with a somewhat average box for $650

How "average" is the box? Any tears, rips, etc? What flaws?

What about paperworks?

As far as I am concerned, the King Poseidon giftset is almost all about the box and the Japanese paperworks.

If these are not in acceptable condition to you and complete, I wouldn't recommend because you can get a complete Piranacon for half that price. However, with that being said, $650 is still a pretty good price for that giftset. It used to be a lot more expensive.

I'd say the latter. TFA Cliffjumper was released here but not in great numbers and immediately disappeared off the shelves (I've only seen him at Target at that time) which is prolly why. Tail end character releases tend to be shortpacked during those times for some reason.

The G1 style Prime is copyright 2001, the Ginrai/ PM Prime is Takara 1998 (Japan)

i've been looking at a few jp lawson darkside primes...

anybody care to hazard a guess at whats a fair price for one?

i've only seen a few on ebay ranging between $199 - $299

i'd like one.... but they seem pretty pricey.
am i looking in the wrong place, or is that just market value.

thanks

A lot of those toys aren't Transformers.

They all seem loose and I don't see accessories with them - so that will decrease their aftermarket value. Warpath never came with accessories and he looks to be in good nick, but Warpath has never been worth heaps -- and I imagine he would be worth less since he was reissued a couple of years ago.

Bombshells seems to be missing stickers. Does Blades still have all of his helicopter blades? (i.e. none of them have snapped off?)

Snarl looks to be in good nick -- especially the condition of the chrome, but again, I don't see any weapons. But I suspect he may be, as you friend said, the most valuable figure in that lot.

If you're interested in selling Transformer toys I would suggest showing photos of the toy in all modes so that potential buyers know that there's nothing wrong with the other modes and that the toys are fully capable of transformation (e.g. no missing heads, hands etc.)

As for their values; they vary a quite a bit depending on completeness, condition and character, as Goktimus points out, the Transformers would be worth a little bit more than the Gobots in my opinion but your best bet would be to jump onto eBay (http://www.ebay.com.au/) and have a look at some of the prices being asked for each figure in a similar condition to the ones you have - then apply a median/average of those prices to your own figures. ;):)

I hope this has been a little bit of a help to you mate. :cool:

[HAIRBALLNICK]

Thanks for that! so money wise, if i was to put it all as a lot, for what its worth what would i get do you guys think, just an estimate/

[UltraMarginal]

I'd recommend splitting into a lot of GoBots and a Lot of Transformers.
as for how much you'd get, that really depends on interest at the time. personally I don't know enough about aftermarket value on those toys to really even guess.

[GoktimusPrime]

Yeah, I'd also recommend selling those toy separately. You're more willing to sell them than in a lot. Say for example someone wants to buy a G1 Dinobot Snarl -- and in order to buy yours they need to pay for all those other toys (many of which aren't even Transformers) just to get it... it'd be cheaper and easier for them just to find someone else selling a Snarl on its own without going through the trouble of buying all the other stuff they don't want and having to worry about selling off the excess later.

[HAIRBALLNICK]

Hey yeah well i pretty much mean

with the general going rate of the items, how much could i make as a buy it now on each separately, then combining that price. This is like a price that is decent for the items but both myself and the buyer would be happy with the price.

i.e: Snarl say if it was (just saying) 100$ as it is now buy it now, but it would typically sell for 60 with low demand and 120 if there was no others avaliable. Im asking for the 80 to 100$ value of my item :)

Hey guys, just wondering what all of this is worth, i have a friend that collects retro things and he says the dinobot is pretty collectable, and im sure the rest is worth something

Hi Hairballnick. I would say you would be lucky to get much more than $120 for the lot - the only toy of notable value there is Gunnyr, the green plane, for which you could get about $20. The grey Hornet might just fetch $10-15. The rest are common, and the Transformers are not worth much due to the fact that (with the exception of Warpath) they are all missing their accessories. If you have any their weapons/accessories it would increase their value substantially.

You should be able to get those for up to $150 each, depending on condition. The main issue is going to be avoiding knockoffs. As you probably know, those are some of the trickiest '84-'85 Autobot cars to get hold of since they're the only ones who haven't been officially reissued since the early nineties.

I have one in excellent (only played once) condition, but I haven't been able to locate any to compare prices.

Pic from TFwiki.


Wow, interesting looking figures. They look cool, wonder of the price.



Pretty sure Goktimus has this game too, but not sure of how much it would be. Fun game though :p


I remember buying the BW board Game from TRU for about $30-40 towards the tail end of the beast wars line, around the turn of the century (ha ha that sounds wierd).
Not sure how much the game is worth now though...dont think these sort of things usually gain much value.

Just a a bit of a gauge, I picked my set up from the UK (via eBay) roughly 8 months ago for about $7.00AUD + $6.00AUD postage - So maybe, if you like, perhaps consider $10 for it? :)

[Gutsman Heavy]

Any idea what a henkei rodimus loose with spec card is worth? Thinking of fencing mine.

Just had a look myself on eBay... you weren't kidding :eek: $100 + for a MISB Voyager Blackout, that's way too high IMO. It's only a 5 year old toy.

[jazzcomp]

On ebay, someone's willing to pay $150+ for Titanium Soundwave and the Fallen MISB.

[lj7369]

Picked up a bot shots 3 pack with packaging error. Autobot figures in decepticon packaging.

They sound like they are knock offs (unless they are originals) i think only the constructicons, Predacons and combaticons have had an encore release.

Cool thanks, I have not sighted them yet so not sure of age but I will be reluctant. On the off chance they are original what is a good price?

[jazzcomp]

usually around $150+ each. Higher if good condition.
That's the friendly price here. Might be higher elsewhere.
Here's some reference(dug thru the sales thread:

Superion C8 MIB Giftset (w/ foam insert) $160
Defensor C8 /w Hotspot box $160
Menasor C8.5 MIB $170

I'd buy it for 60 , but not sure what its worth. loose or boxed. this is the urban camo one yeah?

[Sky Shadow]

Anyone help with this one?

$60 is a good deal, and it's a great set. At that price, I suspect it'll be the Sonokong Korean one, which is a good version of Baldigus with the Japanese show accurate colours plus the US mould. For $60 you're paying $20 for Mega-Octane and $10 each for the limbs. If you like the colours, go for it.

For MP Megatron and MP Prime (04) is $390 a good price? From looking on eBay it seems good but that is not always a great guide. Thoughts?

It seems ok. You could probably get them cheaper but that's seems an ok price to me.

[Autocon]

Besides ebay, what other resources are there to compare pricing?

None that I can think of. Most price guides are out-of-date the minute they are published.

Now that there's a "Henkei" Ultra Magnus coming, is the value of a Hasbro "Classics" Ultra Magnus dropping. I finally found my Magnus' missing gun but have a feeling I missed the chance to sell high!

[1orion2many]

There is the colour difference, I think the Henkei one has too much white;)

[SuspectimusPrime]

Now that there's a "Henkei" Ultra Magnus coming, is the value of a Hasbro "Classics" Ultra Magnus dropping. I finally found my Magnus' missing gun but have a feeling I missed the chance to sell high!

That's a difficult question, it's natural to see a price drop given increased supply in the form of a suitable supplement, but I'm inclined to believe that Classics UM will command the highest price. I've seen Classics UM sell for $150 prior to the announcement, bought it myself for $80, and currently eBay completed listings still have it for $110 max. The price hierarchy starts with Complete Classics UM, Henkei UM, then Incomplete Classics UM. Seems like completionists are still willing to pay premium price for the perfect fit (for FP City Commander).

As Hasbro HK set Henkei UM with a high RRP (think it was $80?), it's not exactly the dirt cheap alternative. If I was a buyer I'd think, why not pay the extra $20-30 for the perfect fit. Completed FP City Commander is not a highly playable or poseable toy, so the 'effect' of completion is where the money is ;)

Has Henkei UM been released yet? It seems like there's a Chinese seller selling them for $60 a pop, shipped without box.

that is totally correct,
and I echo what SuspectimusPrime said, adding that it'll probably come down for a while when the Takara one is actually released. but might go back up a bit when the Takara one sells out.

and follow up with "Why would you want to sell that!?:confused:"

[Paulbot]

and follow up with "Why would you want to sell that!?:confused:"

Many reasons: Because it's a straight repaint of a figure I already have. Because I sold the City Commander armour years ago. Because I have too many Transformers and not enough happiness, and money might help me get happiness more than holding on to a Transformer toy would. :(

fair enough, I never had the prime, till more recently, so now I'm unreasonably attached to both. I really like the mold.

you know what they say though " Money doesn't buy happiness"

the others say "people who say that never had enough money":D

I say give me more money so I can test that theory.

[Paulbot]

I had/have Classics Optimus Prime, Classics Ultra Magnus, Henkei Optimus Prime, Universe 2.0 Nemesis Prime, and Shattered Glass Optimus Prime. It's a good toy, but I only need one of it (and Henkei Optimus Prime was the winner).

If that's the case, then perhaps set up a Buy It Now auction at the highest price you're willing to let it go for and just float it (maybe list it under US currency to attract more buyers :)). If you're in no hurry for the money, then you can afford to wait around for the highest paying customer - eBay will only charge you once its sold, so there is no loss for the downtime.

Money certainly does not buy unhappiness :) Having some around for a rainy day may get you out of a tight situation/period in life.

What would be reasonable price for a MIB Botcon 1997 Fractyl and Packrat set with comic?

I thought they were around $400, but this listing (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/130758175424?nma=true&si=GLdfhiQecMW%2BBgeSiURWI%2BiuD60%3D&rt=nc&_trksid=p4340.l2557&orig_cvip=true) on ebay ended at $700. They don't pop up too often.

With hasbro MP Starscream New is usually 120-130 (including postage)
So used/loose/complete i would imagine to be at least 2/3 of that, so 80 isnt bad (if this includes postage)

Can't believe someone actually caved and forked out $700 for this set! :eek: Guess this buy represents a significant raising of the bar for this set...

I think Sky Shadow recently mentioned obtaining one a few years ago for $80 (sorry, cannot find that post). About 1-1.5 years ago I saw the same set go for about $200.

[Bidoofdude]

A loose, complete, good condition G1 blitzwing. Also, a G1 Shockwave! (I wanna see how much you think. I found a legit one for 200 on an online tf store (not telling) which I might buy! (complete good condition)

I picked up my Blitzwing loose and complete for around 55 from memory and boxed Shockwave for 230

[theshape]

yeah i think my boxed shockwave was about $200 back in 2007, hardest thing now is to not get a damn KO

[Jetfire in the sky]

Agreed, do your research on Shockwave before buying, I think if it's legit and in Excellent - Minty with box, then anything under $250 is what you should pay. Blitzy complete can go for around $30 - $50.

I bought MIB Shockwave about four years ago for $300 and was very happy with that, but he has definitely come down since then due to proliferation of KO's

Galaxy Force Leader Class Master Megatron, loose w/ box complete but missing missiles ?

These (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Transformers-Cybertron-Leader-Class-Megatron-Complete-/220984317282?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item3373b11562) ones (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Transformers-Cybertron-Leader-Class-MEGATRON-100-Complete-with-2-missiles-Key-/110951048673?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item19d532a5e1) are complete (boxless) toys and shipped for about $80. So a bit less than that, due to the missile crisis? One can get a MISB Mocom one for slightly less than $100 shipped.

[GoktimusPrime]

Thanks. I'm actually looking at selling one -- but I can't find the missiles (I have everything else for it though). And it is the Japanese version... don't know if having the JP box, tech spec card etc. should make any difference. So I'm guessing $70 might be a reasonable price to ask for.

[Bidoofdude]

Is $55 a good price to pay for Encore 10? (shipping included)

[Kapryiath]

I've notice Brave Maximus has dropped quite a bit since Encore Max was announced. Back to the $400 and under range. I wanted to get one to complete my RID show cast collection and also as a Fort Max stand in. But I've since got Fort Max and an order for the Encore version, so I can't decide if its worth it now for another of such a large toy. I do love the RID show range (it's a bit of everything from all the years before) but adding a Maximus would make it harder to display. And I'll have a spare in a fee months anyway. So I'm just not sure its worth it (when I could spend the money on Green Giant instead).
