I know, Jeff. If they'd make products that I'd want to spend my money on, I'd gladly pay them their prices. But nobody needs another version of any of these characters. If I could find Low Light, I'd pay retail. If I could find a Crazylegs, I'd pay retail. I don't think there's anything else they've released in the past two years that I've needed.
I wasn't into the Resolute figures at all so I had no interest in this line but I am not one that is going to sit around and wait for them to be sold for $1 before buying. That's what kills a toy line. I wanted Low-Light, I paid $8 for him in the store. I wanted Crazy Legs, I paid $8 for him in the store. I wanted Steel Brigade, I paid $8 for him in the store.

I just bought the Skystriker, SDCC Starscream, Zarana Cold Slither, Zarana Regular, and the Death Star. Resolute is cool, but atomicpower is right. I would rather wait or not get them at all.

Here's why I wait, I DON"T LIKE BBTS. They have overpriced shipping, their sales never apply to "new" product. Of course, "new" applies to items over one year old. Also, this set is available no where else but BBTS. They were over priced to begin with since they include two figures we've gotten before and heavy reuse of molds. I guess this is the flip side of the limited items that get heavily marked up because of demand created by the mythical scalpers. This is a product that isn't in huge demand, and people are voting with their dollars and not buying them. They're not going to sell till they lower the price.

well I have been looking for the Sky Striker and with only a 3 dollar mark up on BBTS, and 3.60 to ship. It was worth it for me...
