Funny thing: I'd be happier if it was something I cared about getting delayed so I'd have more time to save up for it. That means I technically feel worse about this news than fans eagerly awaiting these two.
Stop messing with my head, Alternity! You too, lousy economy!!!

i have all of the current alternity figures (not bludgeon or galvatron yet) and have never paid more than $40 each... patience people pays off big with these, either through BBTS or ebay you will get a way better price. so at this point they are a pass for me...
