Oh you just had to say that...

Only for a few months.....then you'll probably never see them again.....

That really pisses me off! Those are awesome and Hasbro would have no problem selling them on the shelves. Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially the thunder cracker!

I am still very disappointed. heh, checked ebay. No way in hell am I paying those prices for them.

Damnit

I so want that set. Curse Hasbro and my lack of beingt a bloody millionaire

by **metalformer** » Thu Jun 28, 2007 10:49 am

Only bad thing about this si that I can't afford it in any way (buying through BC or eBAy)! That and the lack of a Classics Darkwing. But I guess that Energon from anotrher cube.

This is like a smack in the face to the people who couldn't afford the damn thing

Aw, man, that makes me so sad. Thundercracker is so awesome, and he's my favorite seeker. And I'll never get him.

by **Maximus_Blade** » Thu Jun 28, 2007 12:26 pm

I cant wait to get my hands on these. Not only they are sweet but also helps to complete the seeker-con from the classic line. Well done!

by **frogbat** » Thu Jun 28, 2007 12:30 pm

i really hope they continue the classics - it's my favourite line with jetfire being close to my all time favourite toy. For all of the alternators' greatness, they're hampered by a lack of playability & relative price.

I'd like to see more cons - maybe a blitzwing...

Looking at the first day's ebay prices I'm cursing myself for not getting a loose set. Even if prices calm down a little by the time the non attendee packs go out (yeah right) they would probably still just about cover the cost of the first set, and my finances were in a reasonable (well ok, not GREAT) state when I ordered the box as well. I just didn't think I could justify the outlay when the return would be three months away. Bugbite's probably the only one of the set that's still going to be knocking around ebay for some time to come.

What is the price tag on that again???

News Credits: 7 · by **waaaaghlord** » Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:06 pm

$270ish for the box plus I had to say goodbye to another $40 for international shipping. The extra loose set's a bit less but I can't remember quite how much having ruled it out at the time. To be completely honest I'd been holding off since the last two sets are still in stock at the Collectors Club and only placed my order when it was announced that they were about to sell out.

They need to make a poster with that box art.
That is good stuff.

I absolutely have no problem with the people who could afford the set enjoying it. It's botcon/hasbro who I'm mad at. With that said... I hate you all. I WANT THOSE SEEKERS :sad:

Congrats to those who did bite the bullet. I hope they're everything they would have been if they were sold in stores.

Tacogrande is so very bitter.

by **Rodr-Evil** » Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:24 pm

VERY cool set wow!

by **Talous** » Fri Jun 29, 2007 3:34 pm

That is sweet looking. One of these days I'll manage a trip to botcon and snag one of these sets. I figure sometimne around 2045.

by **Dclone Soundwave** » Sat Jun 30, 2007 4:11 pm

I had to look............................dammit.

by **Railguard** » Sun Jul 01, 2007 2:07 pm

I think that this sucks!! Hasbro will not release the Games Of Deception gift set individually in retail. Which means that I can not pick up Ramjet, Thundercracker, and Dirge. This SUCKS!!! Hasbro you SUCK!!! The Classics line is one of the best and they wont release these cool ones, unless you spend the 600.00 on Ebay or 50.00 each when in the store they go for 9.99!! I'll say it again Hasbro You SUCK!!!

And that is what is most sad.

To me, I just see a bunch a repaints, the SAME thing I hear people bitch about on the boards on an almost non-stop basis.

Does not compute.

WHAT?? Thundercracker is NOT a repaint of SS or SW. He is a seperate character!! You sound like my mom when I was 5. "But you already have that in black, why do you need a blue one? " Gah, thats why I never got a Thundercracker. :sad:
