They must have just brought the new case out at Target because they were all there. I left Decepticharge though. :happysad:

I went to Target looking for some new Cybertron figures.

I saw 2 completely fresh and sparkley Alternators Decepticharge and Prowl. No box dings, no wrinkles ... totally fresh.

So I got them and am going to swap for the ones I have at the house. I'm tempted to actually sell these on eBay ... but I doubt I'd make more than $5 for all my efforts.

If the package can be closed again (boxed G1 reissue, original G1, etc) ... about half.
If the package can't be reused and the toy is now "loose" ... about 3/4

it also depends on the condition of the box.

If i have an original G1 with a damn good box, then you're looking at a higher value.

If you have a reissued G1, sealed, but in a beater box then you're still looking at a low price.
