Wait until I grab one more piece and put them together first. Quite difficult to transform due to the metal back and top thighs. Should be able to get one more piece on Sat but in the meantime, enjoy the following pics.

QUOTE(orestes @ Dec 9 2009, 09:13 AM)
i dont think that was a desperate offer... we know how much that can cost since it's very2 rare and limited... rm800++ is a decent price... lowest i found before was around rm600 ..
and if ah kok can bring 1 in, i will be suprised .. . where can get such stock, unless he got it from another collector... iskkk...

I don't support scalpers.

A tip for you. If you want to have a good source to find good stuff, you need to pay market price for them. Cannot afford to be stingy. Seriously, bro Putu offering me RM850 is considered a good price coz it is very close to market price but you and I know for a fact that if I sell it, I will not be able to find another again for some time, maybe another 6 months? Mine is MISB FYI. You know how hard to find such an item.

So, unless I am damn desperate to sell, I will pass Putu's offer for the moment.

Paying market price will ensure good stuff will come to you but as you mentioned, TF hobby is very pricey. Try playing G1 for an example.

The Devastator G1 I bought is considered quite pricey already but the quality is like C9 to C9.5 (don't count the stickers). So, if you are willing to pay, good things will automatically come to you. No need to search high and low.

Of all the transformers released in recent years, the most expensive and one of the rarest is Binaltech Black Convoy. Heaviest and most pricey but worth every sen of investment.
Next up will be the Toys R Us exclusives RID Prime and Magnus.
Black Big Convoy should be next.
Anyway, just my 2 sens worth.  smile.gif

Added on December 9, 2009, 12:29 pm
This is genuine piece. Not KO. Black Convoy has KOs in the market. They take the Hasbro piece and repackage it in high material KO packaging and put metal plates into it to account for the heavy weight. But this piece is not a KO because there is a way to tell from the pictures.

Why you talk history? So interested, go buy His Story - Michael Jackson.  whistling.gif

If everything also say last time, then one Fort Max (G1) only cost RM220 in the early 1990s. Saw it with my own eyes in Toys R Us Subang Parade at that time. MISB and box condition is C9.5. Now, hmmm.... that piece will fetch RM6,500 at that condition. Correct or not, bro Subang 880?

Totally agree with bro Putu.

was RM43.90... now bought it at RM400 sweat.gif

QUOTE(putu_mayam @ Dec 9 2009, 04:04 PM)
Anyway it's simple, just put yourself into the situation, for example if you own a MISB G1 Fortress Maximus now which bought during the 90's @ RM220 (as mentioned ThunderClash), will you be selling the original retail price as for now? The answer will be the reason why never talk about history.

depends on individual reason to collect. some of us collect just because of their passion for transformers. they learn and search just about anything on transformers. pendek kata, makan transformers, tidur transformers, main transformers. nothing more nothing less. some people collect for business reason. buy cheap today. keep for years. sell for higher price tomorrow. they didn't even bother about transformers history or whatsoever. i've met these two kinds of collectors ever since i started collecting transformers.

Some collectors even wanted to help other collectors by selling their collection at retail or buying price. some collectors sell their collection based on current market price. it's quite normal.

like bro putu said, there's no right or wrong as long there are mutual agreement.  icon_rolleyes.gif  we can always choose the best for ourselves.

Yup. Yours? Looks very minty.

Oh Boy, now Subang 880 go gaga over Pretender shells. By the way, just that shell alone costs USD350. Very very valuable stuff. Price quoted from E-Bay bids which ended about 2 months back from a Orang Puteh seller based in Japan.

QUOTE(Thunderclash @ Dec 10 2009, 11:59 AM)
I don't think the collectors are so dumb now. They will surely go online and check. Hey, there are plenty of forums overseas that tell people which to buy and which you shouldn't buy. If the reissue sucks, do you think many collectors will go for it? I think they will still go for the original.

Look at G1 Bruticus and Encore Bruticus. Prior to the reissue, G1 Bruticus (complete with decals applied) went for somewhere between USD100 to USD180. After the Encore came out, the collectors who never owned G1 Bruticus before didn't even want to pick it up due to poor quality issues. As a result, the price of a G1 Bruticus shot up and nowadays can fetch up to USD250!

So, it is all about popularity, quality and demands. Affordability is secondary nowadays. People are willing to pay. You would be surprised.

Conclusion is that reissue may not degrade the value of the originals. It all depends heavily on the quality of the toys which many who want to collect will surely check them out first online. (Unless the buyers are uncles and aunties)
