Hi, anybody who has knowladge about Botcon, these exlusives are based off of my favourite toy line, and having trouble buying them because of their price tag, I know they are exlusives and limited what else can I benefit from this?

UPDATE how much do these cost???

Man, if I had that kind of money to blow on Botcon stuff I wouldn't have any gaps in my HftD/RtS/Generations collection, hell, I could have attended the con and got them for the con prices.

And I want them all too. Well maybe not all, I think one Autotrooper is good enough. And now I personally have learned of Fisitron.

Evil, EVIL Con Exclusives Aftermarket Pricing.

Fisitron is the only exclusive I need so far, but damned if I can find a price I am comfortable with.

The after-con prices are silly on these... I consider myself lucky I got my sets for cheaper than what BBTS, and EBAY are selling for...

Yeah, it is unfortunate but normal. The biggest issue with these prices is that someone will pay them. Those of us who are cheap-asses either have to pay the price or accept not having the figures.

Cr@p on a cracker, even if those Stunticons combined into an awesome looking animated Menasor I still wouldn't drop $450 on them.

so true. i look at them and accept not having them since they weren't in the TV show. I already burned thru a lot of money to build my TFA collection this year.

BUT! If the botcon set was Voyager Thundercracker, Ramjet, Slipstream, fugitive waspinator, and some repaint, I would've totally picked up this set for $400+!
