Transformers Venting thread!

OMG... United Artfire's only JUST come out, and already he's being scalped by some sellers. These guys are charging $145 for one (or $140 if the box has some flaw) <--- that's more than DOUBLE the original price!

I am finding TFsource to be generally terrible now that I do the majority of my TF buying online. They really liberally estimate release dates for toys (I'm assuming to muster up pre orders) and then just keep ploughing through them. FOC Starscream was listed as being available in October on their site, and still said so until December at which point they change it to saying available in December. Now they've changed it to available in January.

Business will be going elsewhere next time, I only ordered there because they were one of the few places that said they'd have them at the end of October.

Usually I'm a robotkingdom guy but they weren't selling what I was after in this case (just gen FOC Starscream - RK was selling the entire wave case)

Finally decided to open up my Alternators collection for display, and was down to a few of the last ones I had to open and Wheel jack was one of them and to my surprise their is no engine mounted in the engine bay??? WTF.... How can something like that be missed!!! It the engine for god sakes, looks like poor old wheeljack is going to do the Flintstones trick of driving by foot power....

Q/C at its best......

Let us hope that all the above is rendered null with regards to the upcoming Reissue.

I cannot think of any Takara(TOMY) reissue that came with a Styrofoam tray. Brave Maximus came in a cardboard tray (with a beeotchload of twist ties!!), so I'd expect something similar for Encore Fort Max. Tin snips at the ready!
