X, that's the price converted from British pounds. Such prices are standard fare in Europe actually and unfortunately. And if you must know, Smyths is a rather large chain of toy stores found throughout the UK and Ireland.
At the top of the news story the article says this:
Searchlight has spotted and purchased Voyager Silverbolt at Smyths for £22.99 (about US$36) in the UK.
Am I the only one that caught the conversion to US dollars listed in the article ?
Anyways, a voyager costs anywhere between $22-26 dollars including tax here in Miami, Florida at Walmart or Target. At TRU it might be a couple bucks more.
Well well well...Autobot032 wrote:A fellow fan, known to us only as Decepticus Prime, has uncovered and shared a new set of Wal*Mart inventory computer listings for the upcoming Combiner Wars figure line. The listings show the possibilty of the existence of the Protectobots team and mention new names as well, such as Prowl! We've mirrored his images and the list of names below:
Protectobot Streetsmart
Protectobot Rook
Protoctobot First Aid
Protectobot Blades
Prowl
Sunstreaker
Mirage
Ironhide
Now, as we all know by now, these listings are liable to change at any given moment, or Hasbro might be using them as placeholder names, so for the time being, take this with a grain of salt. If this holds true, we have an awesome 2015 ahead of us!

Those 4 are odd choices. They bring Masquerade to mind, but only Mirage was in that.

The last four are new, while the Protectobot ones all happen to match up quite nicely with the previous rumor about them. How about that.

Seeing Prowl's off-road vehicle mode in the comics, I was struck how similar the mode is to OFFROAD, the new member of the Stunticons. Maybe we'll see Offroad re-tooled as Prowl? But I don't how they'd convert a limb from one Gestalt to form the head/chest of another.
My wallet is weeping already, while I can't stop drooling.
