In all fairness, they are pretty decent. Not my cup of tea as a collector, but if I were a kid, I'd be drooling over the Optimus with the giant Gatling guns.

This, exactly. These are toys for kids first and foremost, and kids are known to drool over bricks if they look cool enough. I used to do that. ^^ The Weaponizers are a kid's dream.

XDMan wrote:Why not make War Breakdown a HTS exclusive or put MP Prime's price lower?

Probably because the product was not designed for the US market, and it would cost them a tremendous amount to get the product safety-tested when we're not positive that it complies. Any modifications they would have to make would be an additional expense and HTS is not a very profitable retail outlet.
