That's hefty and no mistaking!!

I'm not surprised, and don't forget it's a UK price so you can subtract about 20% off that for you Yanks - we always pay over the odds as someone, somewhere seems to feel that shipping stuff to this little Island is about as costly as shipping stuff to the moon. And with the current customs fees on EVERYTHING that's probably not as much of a joke as I intended it to be.

But yes.....Ouch indeed.

Still going to get one though.......

Will definitely need to think a bit more about this purchase. Want to see completed pics of all (painted too).

fits with the estimates. somewhat disappointing, because in an ideal world they'd already have delivered all 6 to my house for free, but y'know, realistically, looking at the previews I can see how it's worth that.

sadly, being worth it, doesn't necessarily mean I can afford it.

I would be very surprised if they're not cheaper on TFSource, BBTS, RobotKingdom and so on (basically any online store not based in the UK). It'll still be one hell of an investment, just not quite so bad.

Hmmmm...so this is going to come down to pre-order this for $500 and hope that the QC is good and the joints work well. Or, wait for the reviews and miss the boat on purchasing it.

You raise a valid concern. I'm probably going to shoot myself in the foot by admitting this, but I plan on getting hold of these asap just so I have them. I'll check out some of the reviews before cracking them open (although I'd expect a few reviews to be up before I even receive them). If the reviews are bad or they simply don't vibe with me, then ebay beckons. I'm sure someone will want them.

I'm probably not going to be buying these. As much as I want them, I have a few too many other things to get right now.

Maybe I should contact them about doing reviews for their products?

No, no thinking about this.

If I think about it, I may not do it, and I'm GOING to do it.

But, that said, its Ramen for dinner tonight! (and for the foreseeable future)

I like to eat decent food so I refuse to put myself on a ramen diet for toys.

As a student it's hard enough getting the figures I want. Now that I'm back to work again, the only way, I'll be getting them is if I get a lot of extra days of working at Costco.

Maybe we can split him? I'll take monday-wednesday, you take Thursday-Saturday. we can alternate sundays..Sound good?

The more I think about it.. The price is just ridiculous #-o

. Whats the point of making something so awesome if only the UBER collector with a large amount of disposable income get to enjoy it. While the rest of the average collectors sit here and drool over the seibertron.com galleries

That would be quite the custody battle LikWid.

If these were $50 a piece, I would do it in a heart beat.

How about they slice some of the price off by getting rid of boxes and poly bagging them? If botcon can do it, so can they.

Haha, I can understand where you are coming from.

I think around $80 was where we expected these to land. I need to see the complete set before I make a decision but I will most like be picking him up. It looks like third party companies will be receiving a lot of money from me in the next year.

When does it come out? all it takes is a lil bit of saveing 5 bucks here 10 bucks there ( and with DOTM toys being everywere now) put up some more money and by the time the pre orders come up you have the money to buy the whole thing and then some. But you have to save put the money in money orders and sign your name and keep em out of sight. Thats how i save money for anything( and i have a bank acount) but remember that the money orders have a 6 month time limit then you cash em in and redo it. So cant afford it isnt the problem more like can't save up for something weve all dreamed of thats what im hearing :KREMZEEK:

The biggest problem for me with these are we've had some pics of them, which look awesome, but that's about it. Has anyone handled these guys? Any reviews I'm not aware of? Something, anything?

I'll probably preorder this, but sit on my POL until I get word about quality.

Nothing has been posted. I wouldn't expect these for a while still.

Five hundred USD.

This is just too much for me.

Maybe in the distant future with a dealer willing to set a hefty discount.

That's 3/4 of my rent, for Cybertron's sake. I think they should come up with some better pricing.........

Re: TFC Project Deva Hercules UK price revealed (1235318)
Posted by bvzxa on June 6th, 2011 @ 10:31pm CDT

What I'm guessing is each figure may be less for the US...I hope.
I did sell my Classics Devastator, so in place of him I have the Target Devastator repaint of the Build Team which is the best. Though having only four constructicons is fine by me.

$80 to $100 a pop per figure is way too high. But considering their size it alsmost seems fair. Look at FP Warbot. That was $80 for a deluxe. So if the quality and paint is on par, then I expect it to be that high. Luckily I can get at it because I don't like movie toys. Looks like my money is going to go to third parties for a long time coming.

Robot Kingdom listed it at $77 for Hercules. It had pics of all the pieces currently revealed. I pre ordered it. Now they have changed it to Hercules - Exgraver at the same price and only has pics of that toy and set it to out of stock. I wonder if they will honor what I purchased from their site and get the whole set for $77. The realist in me tells me not to hold my breath but I haven't had an email from them yet.

I like these colors. The green and the purple look really nice. Clever use of the "tail" as well.

The ability to hold the preorder in my POL and buying from a U.S. Based company trumps the $4 savings.

The ability to get this when it comes out rather than sitting on it for 5 months to get a big enough POL that I break even makes the $4 saved (before factoring in shipping of any kind) icing on the cake...especially when patience isn't exactly one of my strong suits! Sure, BBTS customer service is second to none (more or less), but I don't recall ever hearing anything but positive from RK.

$97.99

And it looks like that is just for one figure. There's a second pic on the item page with two figures on display (one in robot mode, the other alt mode).

So, I would like to know if this guy is Deluxe or Voyager scale and does he come with extra parts (like FP's Bruticus figures did).

Someone mentioned earlier about Warbot being priced at about $90. He's Voyager scale and no added parts. If I'm looking at 5 or 6 figures for Project Hercules at $97.99 each, this really makes me reconsider the purchase.
