Platinum coneheads for $42 cdn, which is $30 US (plus taxes).

Woah.

That's an amazing price, Will. You buying?

If anyone wants me to be an intermediary, I will be happy to help. Send me a pm

I have not been keeping a close enough eye on this thread lately, that's a pretty spectacular deal on devy there a page back.

Hey, uh well by accident I have ended up with 2 Crosscuts! If anyone wants one, I may actually try to sell the extra

Can you post a picture? Because I don't have any idea what figure you are talking about. Also, didn'T you said you want a classic Megatron mold in the other thread? I have the multi-colored Nerf Megatron as a spare since I got the Henkei....

This Crosscut:


And I was looking for a classics Rodimus but thanks anyway!

Oh, THAT Crosscut. I already own him so I'm good. As for a classic Rodimus, I recommend the Henkei version. By far the best deco. Bought him years ago for 40$CAN shipped (or 40$US... Yeah, those were the golden years).

Now it's... HoOOOOooo, look at that. Could be worse.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind, but first, I would like to see what the platinums 2pack is priced at

I prefer the Classics deco myself. I like those flames a bit better, and find the chrome on Henkei to be equal parts gaudy and easily scratched.

If you happen to live near a K-mart, and they haven't sold out of the Platinum Insecticons (if your store even carried them to begin with), they're marked down to $19.99. This is likely not universal, but if you know of a store just sitting on stock, may want to go check it out. Also given that it's K-mart, I'd scan 'em in a price checker or have someone at a register do it if they're marked higher, as they may be cheaper in the system. In other words - it's likely this is an extremely YMMV type situation so don't be mad at me or your local K-mart employees if this doesn't work out for you

That crazy price for the Insecticons is in the USA, right?

Let's see what will be the lowest price at my local TrU...

Yes, that is a crazy price. I may have to go check out my local Kmart, if their still open.

Not sure if this is a new price drop, but I was cruising the usual online haunts and saw that TRU has MP Bluestreak down to $49.99. Only $10 off, but it might be the sale someone was looking for. Bonus: orders over $19 are shipping for free.

May have to swing out to my local Kmart this weekend. They had a few sets around Christmas on the clearance rack ($79.99 with 25% off). I never had Kickback, and I could use my G1's as battle damaged clones I don't really have a problem using these guys on the MP shelf, as they are official and small overall (and I still don't have a good Kickback)!

Platinum Insecticons on sale for $56.99 at Amazon right now (says only 4 left in stock), and ships free for Prime members!

Anybody been wanting those Platinum Dinobots with the new G1 heads?

Well TFsource has them on sale for 135$, cheapest price for this set so far.

No. Cheapest was 100$CAN in TrU stores.
THOSE are unsurprisignly sold out.

Wrong set WJ88 - those are the chromed-out 'Dinobots Unleashed' set. BBTS currently has them for $100, and had them on sale for $80, and at one point $60 some time back.

Ah dammit, sorry! Came across this and was hoping it was good news for you guys. Damn, why are there 2 sets called platinum dinobots!!! I will go hide now, sorry again if I got anyone's hope up!

ScottyP is correct. The weird thing is that both sites have the G1 Dinoheadbots set listed as "Age of Extinction", but the box doesn't have that branding. Neither here nor there, just odd.

EDIT: TFSource does have a few different platinum sets on mark down.

BBTS has the platty triple changer a down to $50 - I think they've been at that price for some time now.

Has anyone seen these ridiculous deals?!

Yes, I have seen that same price for Roadrage elsewhere and bought her. Turns out these arent popular in japan at all and the secondary market is selling them them at a discount. Think of this as the equivalent of a japan online Winners/TJMax.

That's amazing!

I am resisting the temptation very hard right now. A $30 masterpiece...... argh....
