Yeah. There's a new rule I've been following for the past few months: instead of jumping on the first new figure available, I wait. Usually, in 2-3 weeks, I can get the same toy for retail or less from sellers like TFC Toys, even after shipping. Heck, I even got Leader Prime, Leader Jetfire, DLX Wheelie and Voyager Long Haul for free (don't ask me how
). I know the first Prime initially sold for well over 200 and Jetfire close to 500 (actually, if the rumor is true, the very first one - buyer unknown though - apparently sold for 1200). Long Haul was selling for around 150 when he first surfaced.
