80$ for Movie Strascream G1 repaint worth it?

Post by SimonMK »

I live in Montreal where we never have Target exclusive except in that shop. But is it worth it or I should rather buy the original Movie Starscream or Thundercracker repaint, which is around 45$ And 65$ for Voyager Premium Megatron or Premium Ratchet over-priced too?

I'd pay about half RRP for most of the movie figures, tops.

Also, the answer is no, it is not worth it.

If I tell you to buy them both, would you really ****ing do it? Seriously. Just how much weight do other peoples opinion have on your actions? Buy the one you like the most. The G1 deco looks horrid and the new head sculpt retarded. Just buy that one.

I've gotta ask. What's with the "talking like cartoon Grimlock" schtick?

Starscream is a fun mold, but I wouldn't pay more than retail price for him.

It's what i do when i don't want/can't be bothered to type full sentences, but still want to get a point across. Usually when me in unhappy mood. like now.

I still say the G1 repaints are C***. Only Exception: Jazz. On second thought, maybe not.

I paid $46 for mine, and i felt ripped off, even for a movie wave 2 version. (the brown one)

And $80 is double what i would want to pay for G1 Screamer(or any Movie Screamer).

I'm pretty sure you can figure out what i think he's worth.
