Dear Reno and Suba,

Get er done, you'll thank me later.

Andrew





seriously guys, if the production run is based off of this guy's initial investment, I wouldn't be surprised if fewer than 50 of these are made.

from S-O-C
(4) Red with yellow eyes, G1, were sold last week
(5) Red with yellow eyes, G1, are available this week

(2) Red with blue eyes & chest, NYP, were sold last week
(2) Red with blue eyes & chest, NYP, are available this week

from Trainee
(5) Red with yellow eyes, G1, were sold

(3) black were sold, 1 available now


on his Blog, he states that 10 black are on the way ... it's not a coincidence that Trainee007 can't produce red anymore, only because black is up next. When these reds are gone, it might be a while, or never, before you see the true G1 back.

I got mine from S-O-C for $45 cheaper than the trainee. His deals aren't very appealing anymore.

did you order from s-o-c directly? he's already told me $150 shipped from eBay, then $130 shipped from him directly, but screw that. i'll get a G1 prime right now if he says $130 shipped (and then hammy will have to wait a little longer for the red alert/ultra magnus purchase h: ).

however, if i contact him outside of eBay, i think any account i make contact/payment with, will be more than obviously linked to eBay.

:dunno:

I bought a red one from him thru ebay, then picked up a black one for 130$ when i got invited to his blog. I have already asked him if he'll give us the $130 or better deal w/o ebay, and am waiting for a response. Hopefully, we can get that price for everyone, and save him ebay fees.

I say Reno ponies up.

I would have purchased my black from S-O-C only if I knew about the price breaks. :hs:
