    Default Boy those TT Animated Exclusives are getting expensive.

    Great tally of the cost of keeping up with TT's Animated Exclusives:

    Its looking to go that way. If you give each fig a 'Super Mode' and then add the bajillion versions of the SS mold, the possible exclusives will surpass the normal stuff.

    Don't worry they'll reciprocate.

    Is the easier option to just not get any? Or just one or two?

    Is there a difference between completist (just getting the regularly released figures) and being ultra-completist (getting absolutely everything)

    What's funny is that it seemed like Takara would never release Animated figures... now they've got more figures than Hasbro ever did.

    Patience! Space it out and you'll get through it. So far I've knocked eight off that list, and I've got another on pre-order.
    I'm not up to date with the regular releases either, but if they sell out it's not like they won't be on ebay at some point.

    I'd love to see these as well. Are the exclusives really worth it though?

    They all sound and look like rather forgettable repaints, except for Activator Ramjet - which I would pay AU$30 for, but not US$30. And why are there price estimates on LUCKY DRAW prize toys?? Those toys aren't meant to have RRPs or meant to be even available for retail sale... aren't they supposed to be given away free as ... ya know... lucky draw prizes?!?

    I'm delighted to receive lucky draw toys if I win them, but I'd never pay for one. Kinda defeats the whole point of it IMHO
