    Default TFCC Melissa Faireborn and 'Old Snake'/Stealth Bats on sale

    Via the club store, you can order the GIJoe cross-over sets:

    • Melissa Faireborn with afterburner
    • Old Snake, Stealth Bats (Soundwave repaint)


    Melissa is $42.00, but cheapest shipping for 1 item is $49 making shipping more than the toy.

    Old Snake is $79.00 for two Deluxe TFPrime Soundwave repaints, and a Joe figure. Some people may like it if you're familiar with the old cartoon.
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    Gah - I would have considered getting it too - but not at what'll add up to about $100 aus for a non-transformable figure.

    Disappointing. Would have loved the Old Snake figure but at that price? Ugh.

    You get what you paid for.

    Want a cheaper price. You end up with Divine Brown. Just ask Hugh Grant.

    It took them a week, but they finally emailed the Transformers club members today with the details for these two toys...

    Hello,

    We are thrilled to offer these NEW items in the Transformers Collectors’ Club Store!

    Marissa Faireborn w/ Afterbreaker
    https://www.toyarama.com/store/2015-...1-pc-p1285.php

    Old Snake w/ Stealth B.A.T.’s
    https://www.toyarama.com/store/2015-...1-pc-p1283.php

    Be sure to order yours today!
    I guess it means they are still in stock... and if it were more than five years ago, before they started shafting the fandom, it is unlikely that they would have lasted a day (because both clubs would be interested in these).


    Remember when FunPub toys were in such demand, that they would sell out within a matter of hours or a day...

    I remember the rush to get Punch/Counterpunch he was such an awesome figure and I was lucky enough to get one.

    the one club figure I'm really disappointed not to have. can't justify aftermarket prices though.

    I wonder why these haven't shown up on BBTS. They normally have every TFCC product at release or soon after. If BBTS had these guys I'd add them to my POL.
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    BBTS didn't get the SDCC toys either... which is really annoying for those of us with limited options when it comes to doing big orders just to offset the postage.
