Chances on finding a Skywarp

What are the chances of me (being in Canada) getting my hands on a Gen. Skywarp?

The one that came with the white Utlra Magnus. I really just want the Skywrap. But Utlra Mags would be cool too.

How much we talking?
What's a good price and what a bad price for the topic at hand?

Re: Chances on finding a Skywarp

Well on ebay, the skywarp/magnus MISB set goes for $150++ and going up, maybe even $200. If you're not adverse to Knock offs, try the CHMS knockoff of Henkei Skywarp for $21.49. at KOToys. Solid plastic quality. You might have to do some simple mods like adding nailpolish to the hip joints to make them stiffer, but other wise worth the price for a stand in. You might even take a look at their KO Ultra Magnus for $15. Good quality too, but the arms aren't put together right so you'll have to take them apart and reassemble. Putting numbers to things if a real Skywarp and Magnus are both 10's I would say the KO's are solid 7.0 to 7.5 relative to them.

Re: Chances on finding a Skywarp

Damn. I should sell mine, then.

Never really liked the Classics Starscream mould.

Re: Chances on finding a Skywarp

i paid $180 at tfcon for my sealed classics magnus skywarp, i figure if i bought one online shipping would be about $20-$30 so anywhere from $175-$230

i figure i wasnt gonna see one in person again, and next year it'll just be more expensive, now i have all six seekers,

of course you can try to grab the henkei version on a good day for $70, in my opinion the takara version has better purple (more show accurate)

skywarp by himself id say ur not gonna find for less than $50 loose

if you can get one do it, hes just gonna get more expensive, at least until hasbro thinks about the profit in a single deluxe skywarp, for generation or rts

Damn, that's crazy! I got my Magnus and the City Commander set for that much together, shipped! Got lucky on Skywarp too for a good price. Glad I'm not looking for those figures now. Are Magnus and Skywarp still sealed? lol

For the dude looking for these figures, be patient and search the boards here and over at TFW and other sites, there are deals to be had if you find them.

I'm sure we'll get another Skywarp in the Generations line. Just be patient.

Re: Chances on finding a Skywarp

I traded a classics skywarp to a fellow board member for a classics Optimus. They show up from time to time at a good price.
