Previous edition starter sets have been $9.99 in stores. Since these are $33.99 for 3 sets, does that mean the price is going up I wonder? The prices at Entertainment Earth (usually higher than other online) have nothing to do with the prices we will see in stores. thank god. i was getting a little worried then

awsome! In terms of boosters, I have 5 figures left to collect in series 1. series 2 extras should be good trade fodder.

sop is the best one in there Actually his name is Optimus Prime, the SOP your familiar with is actually a "super mode" of an Optimus Prime from Transformers Cybertron.

Cona: It just means that etailers don't get the same discount rate as bigbox stores like Wal-Mart, and have to pass the lack of savings on to customers.
---Dave, saw the Spider-Man "Tournament Set" today, but passed on it.

I may have missed it somewhere but which 2 of the figures in the starter set are the exclusive ones?

Considering that Landquake and Skywarp are repaints of Landmine and Starscream, I would say the G1 Optimus Prime and G1 Megatron figures.

Now you can reenact the "Why throw away your life so recklessly" and the "GET OUT OF THE WAY HOT ROD!!!" (yeah, you substitute Hot Rod for Rodimus.) ;D

Megatron shoots a clearish purple force-blast missile and Optimus shoots a clearish yellow force-blast missile.

Prime's "One shall stand, one shall fall" would also fit.

Im really on the fence about buying these... Should I spend a tad extra and get them now, or wait a couple more weeks in hopes of finding them in a store?
Also, I for one am pretty disappointed to see force blast type projectiles in the boxes. I had very high hopes that they just got the projectiles wrong on the display figures at botcon. Well, I just hope they are strong plastic blob lobbers.
