Megatron Wolf wrote:well that person lucked out not only did they find them but look at the price they paid, not even walmart sells them for that and they're the cheapest. I wont be seeing these for a while, by the time they are released around here christmas shopping will be in full effect and they'll wont stay on the pegs for more than a day. Then factor in how long it takes to restock so i wont be seeing them until mid February if lucky.
around here toys r us is more expensive than Walmart. my Walmart has them for 11 something. and DOTM for 9 something (with out tax for both)

What issue did Wreck-Gar have?
Also, as much as I like the Black Shadow redux, I wonder if the mold could also be used for a Classics Blitzwing. I want a new Blitzwing so bad.

How many of these to a case? After a lot of people struggled to get Warparth first time round, I hope everyone gets a chance to grab these.

Well, I´ve never gotten the figure in hand so I only know what other people have said, but the toy is supposed to be made of a poor quality plastic and is very easy to break. I love the mold, but the possibility of breaking it would drive me crazy if I ever buy it.

Now that's a bit harsh. If anything, only the handlebars are a major breaking point, and even that's avoidable for the most part by not touching them, and letting the Automorph do its thing.

As for the issue with the handlebars, I don't intend to transform him more than once. He will stay in alt mode with Wreck-Gar riding him (that sounds funny).

That´s a lesson I learned as a kid. It doens´t matter how hard you try a bad toy will break. Some people can spend 10 years without touching the toy, transform it after that long, break it, and carry on with their lives, but I can´t. I can spend 20 years without touching it but, if it breaks after 20 years of being left alone, I would go crazy.
Also I´ve heard that even with the automorph, the pieces will break. I just hope Junkheap doesn´t have any "breaking" issues.

Got mine from Kapow toys, they arrived this morning, only a liitle over RRP, which considering we'll never see them here; I was more than happy to pay it.
