    Unless classics size, they are not gonna sell well at all. The MP datsuns are great.

    They're slightly longer than the Legends Class Prowl mold by 1cm (6.5cm vs 7.5cm) But $140 UsD for 3, or $50 UsD each... Good luck with that.

    They're very cool but just too expensive.

    it basically looks like they just gave the legends prowl some articulation...

    for $50 i'd rather get 2 hasbro voyagers on sale.

    What were they thinking? They would need to be way cheaper and be supported by a very good (scale, articulation wise) and populated line for people to consider them. I don't think we want to replace our legends Prowl that desparately.

    No doubt. it also makes me question why people would invest time selling these... Unless of course the cost price is peanuts & they've put a severe mark up on them?

    From the frequency, quantity and range, I think BBTS likes to position themselves as early adopters of third party offerings. I'm not up to date with every third party release, but it seems like TFSource are the only other online retailer that comes close to BBTS' scale? Especially in recent years since RK ticked off FP/MT.

    On a totally different note, I just saw your wish list. Sending you a PM
