    With so many recent items left unsold, I'm starting to think that Brian was happy to offload the Transformers license with all that dead stock collecting dust
    It really sucks that some of the 2016 items are/were still available at over 50% off, after paying full price "just in case"... and all those other people I bought stuff for at BotCon or from the Club Store. Like the two Human figures, now US$16.50 each (from US$55). And look at the Subscription Optimus & Megatron Pretenders - now just US$74 for the pair.
    (all those magazine issues that they'll probably end up throwing in the bin... )

    I hope that the unassembled Custom Class kits come with screws and pins... as I'd try to build them if I got the ones I'm missing. Otherwise, they are just an expensive envelope of plastic parts.

    Has anyone asked them directly?

    Judging by the comments on the TFW topic I linked to above, for instructions, it sounds like they do... and one of the items in the Club Store says that it doesn't come with any "Hardware", which I assume means the screws and pins.
    From what I (vaguely) recall from the Custom Class, the screws and pins are inside the sealed bag. The one on the Club Store that I think is missing them, might have been taken out for someone in the Custom Class who was missing something, or lost something.

    A couple of things I was looking at have sold out (or are in speculator's carts). Going to try again tomorrow.

    Bought the four Custom Class toys I don't have that they still have in stock (2007, 2008, 2009, 2011). The older three will probably still be in stock next week (which would be another US$90 cheaper), but the 2011 toy might not... and they average out to be about US$100 each, which is close enough for me.

    Postage was still the expected excessive amount, at US$75 for what is basically 4 Deluxe toys in baggies... so should be half that.

    Now to see if they arrive, and see if I can build them... and then do up a photo review of the 23 years of BotCon toys.
    (this will leave me with just five American BotCon/Club toys I will be missing, which are five other Custom Class toys, from 2004, 2006 x2, 2010 and 2012)
