My, how times have changed!

When transformers first hit the shelfs back in the mid 80's how much were they?
I am especially curious about Optimus Prime and Megatron, but in general, I think this would be good info to include into knowledge bases dealing with transformer history.
Thanks to anyone who can provide prices, or a site that has such a listing already.

I'm not sure if a project like this has been completed for any of the TF sites out there. I've wanted to put this information together for quite a long time. If you look back through some of my galleries of G1 figures, you can see price tags on some of the original boxes. Here are a few to give you an idea ...
Insecticon Kickback
Triplechanger Astrotrain
Monsterbot Doublecross
Powermaster Optimus Prime
Beast Wars Deluxe Cheetor
Kmart Legends Jazz

He wasn't. Did you see the picture above?

Yes, certainly I did, in fact my comment was in direct response to that pic...Just saying that either that one was on sale or discounted or where mine was purchased from was way overcharging...
