I have already said that if they start a new campaign for a reissue of Unicron but this time he's $675.00 to account for cost adds since he was released, I'd seriously consider it. He is a piece of Transformers history that I'm sad I missed out on.
I've been lucky enough to never have a figure suffer from GPS and I've only ever had 1 figure (super mode RiD 2001 Prowl) who ever had clear plastic hinge issues. I guess I'm just a lucky one. I had TM Megatron last until I sold him 2 years ago with no issues at all.
I really thought about picking up a second one. If it wasn't for all the stuff I currently have on preorder, I probably would have. These ones are so cool that having a copy to display as individuals and a copy to display combined would have been justifiable. Just a lot of up-front investment...
I put in a preorder at Target yesterday. I have been thinking of replacing my TR Perceptor for a little while now. Glad I held off because this one seems really nice with the slight modifications they made. Also... CASSETTES! :)
I understand about the dust. It is an ongoing struggle to keep the display dusted. I've been trying to stay on top of that more recently.
I also need to get around to applying stickers to Trypticon, Metroplex, and Fort Max. I've just been too lazy.
I honestly thought about picking up 2 when they first were announced, but I have way too much on preorder right now to justify socking another $300 into a duplicate.
Tweezers are a must for adding the new stickers.
As for taking the old ones off, I have heard rubbing alcohol can work, but be careful as it can take paint off your bots too.
I usually just wipe the area off well before applying the stickers. I don't go as far as washing with soap and water...
This one has me scratching my head on how I'm going to display. I really love the individual bot modes, but LioKaiser is so damn cool looking. My CW combiners pretty much stay in combined mode for display. I could see leaving them in individual bot modes and displaying them standing around...
