    BBTS shipping is very expensive. Try HobbyLink Japan, http://www.hlj.com/.

    This BotCon Thundercracker is mine...

    Exactly how much were you thinking of spending anyway? Cause when we did a group order months back - it's not like they were cheap to start with! Keep that in mind

    Thanks for all your replies guys... I checked out BBTS and they have them in the Henkei range but damn are they expensive!

    Once you factor in shipping and everything, I don't think I can justify spending their asking price... probably cheaper to get it on eBay instead of from them.

    As for Hobbylink, they don't stock them.

    Just out of interest, how much were they all when you guys did a group order?

    From the looks of things, it's cheaper to get the Henkei ones as opposed to the Botcon versions.

    What is a fair price to pay for the three of them? I've got no idea besides what they're asking for on eBay?

    Both times, we used a company in Japan named Overdrive who purchased them for us, received them via post, and repackaged and posted them to us, for a fee of US$15 per figure.

    For TC and SW, the figures came to about US$58 each. The AUD was nearly on parity back then, and it worked out to AU$61 each.

    For Dirge and Thrust, the US price went up to US$61 each, but the AUD was at its lowest, working out to A$95 each.

    They're pretty reasonable prices (if they including shipping and all) compared to what some of the sellers on eBay are hocking them for.

    AUD's not too bad at the moment...$1AUD = approx $0.83 USD... now if only to find enough people to join in and see if we can get a similar deal?

    +1. These guys set me back $100 each and that was pre-order stuff ( took 4 months waiting too) I think they go a bit more now even coz these were limited releases. Anyways goodluck guys in finding all three, theyre worth it though.
