It's cool looking, but who would pay $128 for something they could make themselves.

I dont think I could do that by myself. Especially considering there are some really rare parts in there.

$128 is a bit excessive, however it is my understanding that the builder, Sun Yun, is auctioning off ALL of his custom sets. Guess he's hard up for cash. While this is oddly cool, I probably have all the pieces to make this model laying around at home, I'm tempted to actually buy the instructions from his website.

For that much money, I was hoping to see some deluxe shit with working Entry Plug hatch and an articulated jaw. I remember paying $60 back in the day for one of those Spyrius robots; before clicking the link I thought the price might be fair. It's not.

Well, someone wanted this really badly, cause someone just did "Buy it now" for $160. I swear, someone's got too much money laying around and not enough ideas on what to spend it on.

There's plenty more important and worthy things they could have spent it on....like donations to tsunami victims. GRRR.

Okay...sorry, that was too cynical for even me. But c'mon....$160 on something you probably would enjoy more figuring out and building on your own. Some people are just a little too "geeky"...

Or lazy, in the case of the guy who bought it.

Oh ho ho, how delightful it will be to have that beast on my shelf! And I didn't have to lift a finger! Marvellous."

Back on topic... It looks like more like something out of Bionicle than an Eva.
