I lucked out and managed to do that too; fortunately I only really wanted two of the Takara parts (Scattershot and Lightspeed) so that was easy to flip. Nosecone and Strafe were tricky to pick from, but I went with the original toy colors for Nosecone and I opted to let go of the Takara Strafe to have a better chance of selling the bunch. Besides, I liked how Hasbro's Strafe turned out well enough.
I hope we see more former Botcon/TFCC exclusives released in the relevant lines. Selects, SG, Velocitron, all of these have been great opportunities to get these in a more reasonably-priced manner Still getting steep, but I never would've imagined it'd be this comparatively easy. A lot of the original Shattered Glass stuff, Lifeline, Transmutate, G2 Ramjet, Skywasp, Scourge, Lift-Ticket, Burnout, Flamewar... hope we get SG Cyclonus and SG Rodimus/Hot Rod next.
