An auction on eBay featuring Cyclonus has popped up.
But buyer beware as this is most likely a stolen figure from the factory or a sample that is not for sale, since this figure has not been released yet. Also note that this auction is note showing you the actual image. Instead it is using a TFormers gallery image. Since the seller is located in China this image has most likely been infringed upon as well.
You can view the item http://cgi.eBay.com/Transformers-Univer%20...%200286579994">here. Remember to play it safe when using eBay for pre-released figures.

That's insane. For that current bid, you could buy a G1 Cyclonus w/box! Wow...some people have absolutely no patience. The figure will be widely available in 2 months!

Be the first on the block to have that for $100 plus? I'll just wait to be the last on the block and get it for $7.77 at Walmart.

Assuming Walmart still has these figures on Rollback in December.

You had the previous high bid at $105.00, didn't you?

100$? really, geesh, people can't wait until the end of the year to get these toys, what's the rush? These toys are going to be sold online and at stores for 20 to 30 bucks. They're worth more in the package, plus they're protected. Well whatever the reason I'm in no rush for my Classics.

Never understood why someone would pay 1, 2, 3 or more bills for something that will be store in a few weeks. Real head scratcher...

I wouldn't care if it was only $15 more, I can more than wait for the regular release to come out and sometimes these early auctions can't be fully trusted.
At Botcon this year they released the Animated figures early for the local market and the dealers went scooping them up and selling them for double or more at the Con. No way was I going for that, let alone the $100+ someone's gonna drop on the auction mentioned here.

Yeah, ump that. And I ALWAYS miss out on the good figures in my area. The only way I get my stuff is via ebay, BBTS or here. But no way would I pay that much for a figure that will be widely available in a few months.

%187 + the $20 shipping. Eeeeesh. I think I would rather use that money for the Masterpiece Grimlock.

I think someone's wallet just got raped!!
I'll never understand how something like this even gets that high...unless the person bidding is high, and even then...

If not Rollback, wouldn't the price be like $10? Is that still not a better deal than $100 or more?
