AoS Christmas 2020 Battleforces: Worth Buying?

Feature Aos rAre they going to be worth the money? Let’s look at the value of the new AoS Christmas Battleforces and see how much you may save!

Last year we actually got an early heads up that new Battleforces were coming in a wave of holiday release rumors. There ended up being 4 Holiday Battleforces for AoS that ranged from $170 to $200, and they were released on December 7th, 2019. Looks like we’re getting four again this year. Hopefully, the price stays the same and we can bag the same value as last year!

All of these boxes are actually pretty good value! Considering the prices don’t skyrocket. But each one could be right around that $100 mark, not too shabby! It’s not too often you get to save a hundred bucks with a single box! We’ll just have to wait and see for the pricing… But keep an eye out for these to be released in mid-December.

Will you be picking any of these boxes up? Do you think the prices will rise for this year?
