Japanese MP3 Starscream for $100...

Hi all,

I'm offered a Japanese MISB MP3 Starscream for $100. It sounds too good to be true. Is there any known fakes of this guys?

Do you mean the Soundwave?

As there's no MP3 Starscream.

And pricewise that sounds about right.

What version of Soundwave is it?

Mine was about 100 bucks - and that's the USA Edition MP03 Starscream.

So it isn't a bad deal at all.

I paid $140 like GMFan back when it first came out. I actually prefer the coloring on this version the best. Unfortunately mine has the cracking wing joint that seems to be a common problem with this figure.

I've seen Greenscream being sold for less 100 usd (as low as 75-85) when the W-M version surfaced.

Re: Japanese MP3 Starscream for $100...

Well, I know the price is good. This isn't as much a price check as it is to know if there's any fake out there. We've seen our share of good fakes, even on newly released toys, such as Encore Metroplex and so on. So I wanted to make sure I'm not falling for one of those.

Thanks to all who replied
