Obvious Prime
Notice that there's two of each tag. I'm guessing when the boards got reformated, that was a side effect.

What is the exact release date for SW and TC?

Ghost Nemesis Prime FTW!!
Ghost starscream wasn't too bad an idea, and "invisible" mirage was good enough for a free be but the rest, just a wast of plastic to me.
Incepticon
Neither can I. I thought the "ghost of" anything & so-called invisible modes were bad enough, but this Crystal thing just reminds me of an 80's Swatch Watch phone.
Though to be fair, I'd still rather people get anxious over these clearformers than anything with the word "nemesis" stuck in front it.

I've always hated clear figures, but for some reason this one looks good to me. I can't explain it, it's just different. Though I doubt I'll ever get one. It may look really good, but it will never look $100+ good lol.
DoubleClouder
Does anyone have any confirmed information about the Crystal Convoy? First I heard it was just a festival exclusive, followed by it was a lucky draw. Then I heard it was a festival exclusive where you got a ticket and then there was a drawing.
Ops_was_a_truck
No offense to those who like them, but I still can't understand the appeal of those clear figures.
Runamuck
That's cool, man. I would love one sealed and another loose, but I'll probably only be able to get one.
If it's cool with you, just shoot me a PM me if he does, and what the cost is.
Blue Meanie
After shipping. However it was my friend who got his hands on 2, and like me wants one MISB so he sold me the other loose one. He might be getting his hands on a few sealed ones I'll post if he does.
Runamuck
$100 before or after shipping? If it's after, please hook me up with this contact. lol
Blue Meanie
Mine should be here from Singapore tomorrow morning. I couldn't hold out, didn't want to risk not getting him since he only cost me $100.
Ramrider
Gotta say, while ther's not much point in the fig character-wise, he's very pretty. If I had the spare cash I could be very tempted to pick him up purely as a display piece, and that's not something I do very often.
LooK
Loose Crystal Convoy has hit Singapore..
