Already pre-ordered. I can always cancel, but if these are individual microns, I want in.

I think this came up in another thread, but.. anyone have a good reference between price at BBTS for these and the size category? Maybe some kind soul would even care to make a sorted list based on such.

Would "Shell 2", "Baro 2", and "Jiro 2" be CL, Bulo and the cat (I forget his proper name just now)?
Redecoes maybe? -------------------- |

...and sales of the regular figures just plummeted, now that we can get the microns on their own.

Ideally, I'd love to get a whole set. At eight bucks a pop though, with twelve figs, that's not a small investment.

Well, it costs the same as getting 3-4 of the full toys, so still worth it.

Preordered myself two jet Vehicons, a mini Magnus, and a buttload of Microns. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-ironhide.gif)

Eh, at least the non-minicon Prime stuff is likely to see release in the US. I'd wager we'll get the Vehicon Jets, etc.

QUOTE(Darkstream @ Apr 17 2012, 01:53 AM) I can't afford all this. Same here, which is why I wanna know what I'd be ordering. Sure, I could cancel pre-orders, but placing em all then canceling some will be a pain. -------------------- |

Here's hoping that for the price of each Micron they come painted this time. I don't mind assembling them myself, it sounds kinda fun actually, but if they're priced as Legions then they had better have SOME kind of paint on them.

I don't think they will be painted. at $8 a piece, they are the price of an American legion-class figure. Factor in BBTS having shipping from overseas and the subsequent markup for profit, they are probably around the equivalent of $4-5 in Japan. At that price, I wouldn't expect much, if any, paint apps.
I'm excited as hell that the arms microns are getting individual releases. The figure sets were too expensive, in general, and I already had the PRID versions of most of them. I love targetmasters and am definitely interested in these. I preordered one of each and may cancel a few depending on the final pictures. There's too much up in the air to know right now. I also preordered a Jet Vehicon, Ironhide, and Airrachnid. Just in case they get cut from the tail end of the 2012 assortments (like Soundwave and Wheeljack from DoTM).

They might be painted. The legion figures from Japan are going for about the same price on BBTS as it is.

Hopefully, there'll be pictures soon. And what is this "Darkness Megatron"? Seems to be the same price as Gaia Unicron.
