Predaking Buy It Now on Ebay for $105

[Deemar]

Maybe it's not worth so much because it doesn't have any of the weapons (I don't think) and I don't know if it's metal or plastic. Either way you can have the holy grail of merge sets for $105. It has $35 shipping though which is a little outrageous.

yeaaa...uuumm...no not worth it at all. You'd be looking at $200 in parts to complete it. I paid $209 shipped for a 100% complete one with techs and manuals a couple months ago.

You really need to stop trying to get these bargain basement incompletes and junkers...they are "cheaper" for a reason.

A mix of patience and complete figures only is the key.

Yep. Not a good deal at all.

Predakings feet and fists usually go for at least 25-35 dollars a piece.

Like Ultra Marknus said, you should really be looking at complete figures rather than all these incomplete ones. You'll end up spending more overtime in parts alone than what a complete figure could cost.

Be patient, you'll eventually get the figures you want at a complete good price. Try other sources, eBay can get a little ridiculous at times.

Cheers!

The ultimate complete predaking is in my thread...takara, boxes, foam, everything, all mint...

Ha, no I'm not going to buy it but I am piecing together this guy from local sales.....even against everyone saying to buy it complete, it's a bit more fun for right now. I just bought Divebomb (metal) for $12 but forgot about the Tantrum (metal) auction and let it go for $17....DOH! They didn't have any accessories but still a pretty good price. I just had a lead on a complete plastic Predaking for $250 but turned it down to piece together a metal one. If I get some more figures at $15 a piece then I could come out on top in the end! Maybe.

Isn't the all metal Predaking reissue like 250? I think I paid mine 225 back in the days.

I thought that the only die-cast Predaking was the original, and the reissue was all plastic?

Nope, reissue was metal. Original came in metal and plastic versions. Thats why I opted for plastic for my G1....no switcheroo business heh

ok say each bot cost you 15 a piece, that's 60

but how much are you going to pay for the fist, foot, weapons, inserts etc..... i got mine for 200 shipped thanks to Darth Grimlock. If you poke around i am sure there will be a complete one for decent price

well, $200 for me to pay at a time is too much. I did rather to break it down to haul down each one when I have budget. At least it is more feasible for me to do each month.
