And I will buy that sideswipe in 6 months probably.

Wait... They retail at 22$+tx?!
Aw, come the fok on, TrU!

I'm starting to see RID Warrior class and CW Deluxe class going for $19.99 usd at a few TRUs I visit while on the road. That's a little ouchy in my book.

There is a big difference:

Warriors at Canadian retail are 19.99 = 15.70 $ US
Your 19.99$ = 25.45$ cdn. 1$ canadian in canada will still get you as far as 1$ US in the states, but I just wanted to show how that price increase in the states is far worse than the prices we see at canadian retail. I think that extra 2$, Kanrabat, is due to the exchange which has only worsened.

Those size classes still run $15-16 at Walmarts and Targets. I think its just a TRU thing here. I got sticker shock when I pulled one off the shelf and then saw the tag. My singed little fingers put it right back where I found it too.

These should be remolded and repainted not repainted only.

Totally agree with you. Any news on a price yet?

Oh yeah, its Takara leader price. Everyting is in the Takara TAV thread. Sadly, the toy is already sold out from the japanese importer.

Sadface. That's okay. I don't need another Optimus Prime. I could do with a modern update of God Ginrai, but as far as Optimus is concerned, my Robot Masters Convoy is my absolute favourite G1 Prime.

What about MP 10? Anyway,There is a remold of this TAV op.

Damn ridiculous why are prices increasing yet payment isn't?


I'm poor enough as it is

That is INSANE! That's more than what they cost in Quebec with tax. I really fear your prices coming our way.

I'm not very familiar with the quick changers, but prime reminds me of another one I've seen. Does he share a transformation/shell with anyone? I'd find it hard to believe a unique mold would be limited to a 6 pack and a single retailer.

His transformation is unique to him in the One-Step and 3-Step department, however it's not unique overall:

Ah cool, thanks.

*Sigh* I can't believe how bad this line is going, defaulting to repaints this soon? That spells doom for this toyline. I know, it's aimed at kids and not fans, but honestly, I went to two Wal-Marts, a Target, and a Toys'r'us this weekend (found Air Raid and Groove BTW), and none, I repeat, none of the RID toys looked to be sold out or in need of a restock. Literally, they had the latest figures, but nothing, period.

Replace "Hasbro" with "Toy Stores", and you're dead on. It's the stores themselves that determine prices depending on competition (Toys "R" Us is notorious for their high prices), why do you think we have "MSRP", or Mean (meaning "average"), Suggested, Retail Price? Some stores have higher, some lower.

Hasbro is the main supplier of stock, thus earns its money (and determines overall sales reports) from the stores ordering, while the stores earn their money from us buying that stock.
