This is a question and a topic.
1) What did last years Starscream w Cobra Commander sell for? 2) With the up and coming vehicle being smalller then a skystriker but coming with 2 figures and all the extra pieces, what do you expect the cost to be? And what are you willing to pay? Would you keep the entire set or are you only wanting the Tank, or Destro, or the BAT? Personally I did not take an interest in last years set so I am unaware of the costs. I think the up and coming set looks amazing. I would drop 100-150 for it easy. I see great potential especially if you toss in some Techno Vipers to match that purple. There is custom theme written all over this for me. I am also hoping to hire someone to add some lights to that tank and really make it off the hook. I do apologize if the cost for this has already ben posted, but I still think it is a good topic.

The Skystriker was 50 at the convention. They sold for the same price on HTS but we all know how that played out. Not sure how much this years will go for but it should be around 50. They will go for crazy amounts on ebay so rather than try your luck with HTS, I highly recommend preordering one from an ebay seller. You can get it for a good price before the scalping begins. There's ways to get one cheap, preordering is the best way to go. Honestly nobody can bitch about not getting one because we all have a chance to preorder them.

Keep your principles, I'll keep my CC, Sgt Slaughter, Zarana, and (soon) Jinx. While I love the Starstriker and ShockHiss, those will be out of my price range. As nice as they would be, they aren't my thing, but more power to anyone who can afford them. |

i got my StarScream on eBay from a seller for what I feel was a good pre-order price (I'm wanting to say somewhere around 70-80 dollars). To me, it's worth it and still a lot less than later spending 170-200 for the same thing after they sell out.

Yeah pre-ordering is the way to go. I really want all the sdcc exclusives this year.

Pre-order from BBTS and NOT Ebay. A lot of people got ripped off from ebay sellers who either thought they would be able to get a figure or had no intention. If you pre-order too early, even Paypal can't help you out.
I am hoping that the Joe Club does a better job this year in getting SDCC exclusives, but that may be futile due to their popularity. At some point, Hasbro really should recognize that there is a demand for Joe/TF crossovers instead of offering them for a short time at a very West Coast event that few really get to enjoy and instead stand in line all day for exclusives to enjoy or sell.

I love this site because you are all an abundance of information. 50-75 is a great price. I would build an army at that price and sell off the extra destros. I just now need to find someone who wants to do some wiring work with one of these bad boys.
