>>7755266Man it really would be so nice if people just stopped buying things anyway. So many markets and fandoms would improve if average people just had breaking points.
>I still haven't decided whether Ironhide/Ratchet is worth the price.I don't know if any of the reissues hiked up the price or not, but when it came out at like 80$ or so it was basically the best value MP out there. The mold really solid overall and bigger than average carbots, and it comes with a SHITTON of accesories. And not "recreate that 5 second scene from the cartoon" accessories you get from MPs now, but like shittons of guns and weapons that are all different and attach in different ways and all at once. It's fun. You can get Ironhide looking like a fucking commando.
Only issues I have with the Vanette MP mold is that Ratchet's unfortunately one of the first MPs to switch to the shitty flakey paint. You have to be careful of his thighs while transforming him, but there isn't much you can do against the edges of the vehicle panels chipping though. Ironhide thankfully uses the old good paint that's durable as all hell. I also consider the shadow fisher upgrades to be pretty much mandatory because getting rid of the hip skirts just makes the figure so much nicer looking. No clue how expensive those are now though.
