    Yoketron Cyb mode - using dlx. Jetfire/storm
    Kup Cyb mode - using dlx Cyb Prime
    Wasp earth mode - using dlx Bumblebee
    Slipstream earth mode - using voy Starscream
    All good ideas there. FrenzyRumble did an Animated cup using that mould and it looked really good, I'll try to find a link.
    As far as Minerva goes-It's Animated, I want it. Though I'll never be able to justify the $1000 scalpers wil want for it

    Unfortunately the rules of the board forbid me from truly expressing my feelings on your post. Needless to say I am deeply unhappy with scalpers.

    Heres the link to FrenzyRumbles Animated Kup: http://forums.tformers.com/talk/inde...bum&album=1026

    Hasbro should mass release an evil Junkion called Scalpatron, making it the filthiest, most despicable looking bunch of bolts in the Cyberverse. Maybe you could help them write the bio?

    Maybe it could be part of the exclusive new adults only Transformers line.

    3k? I dunno man, I saw an unassembled G2 sideswipe from last year's class go for $800 USD on eBay. You could get lucky!

    Maybe it's just the photo, but I don't think this Minerva looks anywhere near as good as retail TFA Arcee. :/

    Same, love Arcee but this toy is yawn inducing in comparison. Looks like it's been cursed by the powers of the blandspark.

    That makes her more G1 accurate!

    KISS Play'd!

    While I really hate scalpers, I'm also somewhat frustrated by collectors who are willing to pay their exhorbitant fees, thus justifying their despicable practice in the first place. We all vote with our wallets folks... so I'll just stick to my usual rule of thumb - if I can't buy it for its original standard price, then I'm just not gonna get it. Simple as that.
