How come the deluxe insecticons are so much?
They are I believe harder to get than the original ones:)Quote:

They're rare in general because they only had a Western release and there are only so many Deluxe Insecticons to go around. Unlike their non-Deluxe, non-Bandai-Takatoku brethren who are onto their second rerelease - Takara will almost certainly never be able to reissue them, either.
Received Universe Dropshot (courtesy of blackie) and Botcon Flak (courtesy of llamatron) today in the mail (thanks again guys!) :

Got Armada Wheeljack thanks to SMHFConvoy. The alt mode of this toy is great and fits together seamlessly and the gull wings remind me of MASK thunderhawk though it doesn't 'quite' pull it off. Plus the struck out Autobot symbol is certifiably badass. I also love that minicon Wind Sheer is a minute version of a predator jet and is one of the best looking and articulated minicons i've come across so far.
However Wheeljack absolutely fails in robot mode. While having a decent amount of articulation, it's in all the wrong areas. As such Wheeljack is simply incapable of posing like the badass warrior that he is and at best can only pull off goofy enka moves.
Also it really doesn't help that his dual swords look more like two gigantic adult toys. :rolleyes:
