Do you think we ill be able to get the 5 pack Decepticon set at a sum-what decent price after the convention? Because I aint feeling 279 - 329 for it.

Doubt it considering how fast it sold out in preorder.

This 5 pack is the reason I gave up on new Transformers.

This 5 pack is the reason I gave up on new Transformers. I feel you pain Bear. I really just want 3 of them: Thundercracker, Thrust and Dirge. It is a shame that 3 TF's that would sell well are made into Convention exclusives. At least if they were some store exclusives we would have a good shot at getting them.

I totally agree with you Devy2K. All I wanted were those 3 to round out the original Seekers. But with that high of a price tag it's redicilous. I could care less about the other TFs in the set. Anybody think that a few months after the Con that the interest will die down, and the prices will drop on Ebay? If so that would be the time to go for them.

This 5 pack is the reason I gave up on new Transformers. I'm upset about it too, but don't you think it's a bit much to give up on new tf's entirely bc you can't get a few seekers? There is soo much cool stuff coming out, even if you don't like the movie toys (robot heroes, optimash, mp starscream, etc..). Give 'em a chance bear, tf's need good homes.

I don't see the price going down, BUt I am considring doing repaints myself. I also understand some kitbashers plan to make a mold out of Thrusts wings. If I find one that I like that will sell a few I may buy the wings and make a few. So if it comes down to it and mine turn out decent I may work on a few sets to sell.

I guess when I said new Transformers I meant CLassics. Even if the line continues as rumored after the movie line there will still be the black spot of my collection where original seekers should be. Make a bunch of repaints and call them fred , barney, superjangospot, or what have you. I am not one to say they slap collectors in the face, but this is a pretty close example.
