I found 1 @ Wal-Mart on some rediculous clearance, I think $30, but the box was trashed. So I didn't feel so bad taking him out of his sealed home.

The guy is a complete brick. He has to be around 3 to 4lbs of pure metal and anime accurate goodness.

#1 G1 Silverstreak - Well worth it, only if you can get free shipping. When stuff ships from Amazon, these are absolutely case fresh, mint condition, toys. Silverstreak is mismarked in the Toys R Us database as "G2". All G1 toys are on 50% green tagged pricing, except for this one because of the error. Amazon has him for $15, in stores @ TRU, he's $20.


#2. Stormjet is the chest piece to ...

Energon Superion

(Nevets' combiner pile)



Try searching a Wal-Mart asap. Some stores overloaded on Arielbots. Stormjet (A5) can be found for $5, 2 limbs (A1 and A2) are $3.


#3. TF "Universe" aren't the best toys to spend your money on. These toys aren't new, but repaints of "poplular" molds. 99% of these blow ... the 1% include:

Nemesis Prime


Runition (aka G1 Bruticus)

well, he's a good filler item to an Amazon.com order. $25 gets ya free shipping, so if you actaully needed something else, now is a good time.

I wouldn't place an order just for him though.


if you really really really really wanted to bomb your paycheck ...

I spend quite alot of time on TFW2005. In their for sale section, I always find something I'd like to have. My last few purchases include ...

Reissue Prowl (mint in sealed box) - $15 shipped
Alternators Sideswipe and Hound (complete with box, opened) - $25 shipped

and going about 6 months back

Reissue Ultra Magnus - $30
Reissue Power Master Prime - $40
Reissue Skywarp - $10
Reissue Jazz - $10
Mega SFC Star Saber and Rodimus Convoy - $8


just make sure to buy from a known seller. Check their feedback(s) in the sub-forum
