Included Grimlock and Mirage, but I also saw the new JetFire.
JetFire like Prime is $29.99.
JetFire I can stretch my imagination and pretend he is worth $30, but I am having a hard time paying that much for Prime. He is also packaged in a way that he looks like a small toy in a large box.
Today was the first time I have seen Prime restocked since before Christmas - so I am in the minority and thinking he is worth $30. I was hoping to be able to find him for half price or something.

Prime is a fun toy though.
He's on my coffee table and I often "play" with him while I watch TV.

It's a really good Prime. I paid $20 for him (TRU sale) and I'm happy with that.
I think it depends on how much you like Prime and how much money you have to spend. It's definitely worth buying. Don't let the quantity of plastic influence your decision.

I found Prime for $20 and picked him up - I have to say I am really impressed with him, he really is worth it.
I also picked up JetFire - what a great redo of this figure.
I have had multiple oringal figures, and the one I have now is in the box, and I as I had to pay so stinkin much for him in Mint in Box condition that I don't want to open him for fear of the slighest bit of damage. The classics version is just as good only in a different scale and not simply a Macross repaint.
I like the added touches on both of thse figures that screams back to the original figures but at the same time is a completely different modern version.
I have yet to pick up Megatron as I am really stuck on the ugly gun mode, but since I have been surprised by all of the other figures, if I could find him for $20 I would probably pick him up anyway.
I just wish the other figures that are currently US Target exlusives would be available in Canada.
BTW - thanks for the advice on Prime Jon and Redmao! It was on your suggestions that I kept my I out for him!
