So gentlemen, how are we gonna get our hands on more of these shoes? I totally blanked out on the sale and I'm not paying scalper prices.

HAHAHA! I saw these in Toys R Us here a few weeks ago...stacks and stacks of them...$23 CAN dollars for a stupid shoeformer? Almost $50 for set?! For BASIC SIZED FIGS? No, thanks, I passed. And I consider myself a Prime collector too but these are too UGLY to be considered REAL Transformers. I can't believe people are eating this $hit up and even paying super high eBay prices! Even the normally sober Japanese collectors are bidding super-high for these on Yahoo Auction! :tflaugh YOU'LL BUY ANYTHING!!! It's called "willpower" people! Save it for the MOVIE MERCH onslaught! You'll need it when there are dozens and dozens of Prime bedsheets, handheld games, plush toys, adult diapers and rectal thermometers clogging Walmart shelves!

I wouldn't count on it. These multi-layered licensing products can be pretty tricky, so I think this is all the stock that they will produce. Also, it is in part to the low supply that spurred interest in this item, I imagine it would have been a slow mover if it had the same print-run as any normal Transformer. It sold out in ONE day here in Japan.

OMG it's Artimus Gigan!

 

What do you mean by Artimus Gigan? Gigan means 'fake eyes' in Japanese.

 

There was a guy named Artimus Gigan that got banned and now you show up :thumb

 

Oh no, I have no relation to that guy.

Well, again, I believe this was due to the rather low supply. I too saw this at Toys R Us, but they sold out in a day. I suspect it is eBay seller Anglo who always scalps these up. I keep seeing the same dude buying up all the Sonic Convoys, Masterpieces, ect... at the Toys R Us. Yodobashi, Bic Camera, ect... and ironically on the same day it appears on Anglo's auctions at a 2000% markup.

For Real. Just put in my order. It's sick that ebay has them for $100 for the pair and $20-30 shipping on top of that. I may be crazy but that's nuts.

I ordered my Prime last week. I think it'll be here today or this week sometime. Spencer's a good guy, his store just seems to get skipped over when people look to buy toys.

It seems odd this toy is selling so well when everyone was saying how much it sucked a while back. I missed getting in my preorder. Maybe the price will dip in a few weeks or more shipments will come in.

It's cool. I did an IP check when he first showed up. No relation at all. Not even the same part of the country.

 

 

I've also been bored to tears by all the real gear stuff. But I'm glad some people like it.
