    But robot kingdom also sells above retail price. Should we boycott that too?

    Only if Robotkingdom went around to the nearby store and scooped up all 18 Soundwaves just to resell at a higher price to the people who now missed out on getting them from that store... yes, that would be worth boycotting.
    But RK order from Hasbro, so they can sell at any price they want, because they aren't depriving fans from being able to find it for less at a competitor (which is what Scalper scum are doing - preventing competition by cleaning out alternative sources).


    If you had a single TRU store in your location or city, and someone got in at the moment Soundwave was released and bought all (20) Soundwaves... and then you see on ebay someone in your city boasting about it by showing off a photo of those 20 and charging almost double for each (plus shipping) - wouldn't you be pissed?
    That's how people feel about toy dealers who are not fans... even if they collect Transformers toys, they are not fans for excessively profiteering off other fans in a scalper (clearing out stores) fashion.

    Are these KO's?? I'm interested in Ramjet but there's just something fishy about them.

    Authentic - but the later 'chinese' issues. They will have Japan blocked out on their manfacturing stamp.

    Feel free to send him a "query" using the eBay message system.
    Keep it clean so he can't get you in trouble though.

    This is the best online guide - http://highendtfs.com/?q=node/15

    Let us know any q's. Price wise they usually go for about 1/3 or less of an original.

    These look like the ones that were up on ebay at about this time last year - same questions were raised at that time as well. The asking price is a lot more reasonable now than it was then!
