    Don't think it is, I think its the fella who has the way overly priced junkers and Euro G1 Skyquake and such.

    Found one online for $180 shipped and decided to grab it and save myself some hassle.
    i do NOT Play with toys...

    But I DO occasionally do scale model assisted simulations in physical fight dynamics.

    That's just crazy, you can get Takara version cheaper than that. Scalpers p!55 me off too, I would rather wait until it shows up online for a reasonable price (even if only slightly inflated from cost price here) than to hand over my cash to one of these predators. Yes, I understand they are just trying to make a living and are being capitalist about it however it is rather deflating for the collector who has been waiting for these arrivals for some time only for some opportunistic w4nk3r to remove the little stock there is from local retailers.

    Penrith TRU might still have some as i picked mine up today, even thou i had put one on reserve and was told they could not find it. but they must still have some stocked as they produced one for me and said they were sitting out the back.

    the torture of others sparks is music to my sensors!!!

    If it is last Saturday, that could potentially be a restock as the Saturday before there was only a couple left.

    how many saturdays before is that, kup?
    The last sighting I remember is when those were sold out (during the voucher/coupon sale). Does that mean they have restocked twice?

    I have a reservation for MP-10 being held till the sale on wednesday, thanks to my FB complaint. Was hoping that it'll be 25% off but am happy with what they've done and at least try to get me one..
