It's because he is a more complicated piece, as it was made to include up to three cassettes. That, and it also includes an extra Transformer (Laserbeak) piece. So I am seriously assuming that it costs them a bit more to make him than it does to make the other two.

I think you missed my point. If Sideswipe Alert is the equivalent of, say, 64 US dollars, and BBTS charges $84; then why is Soundwave costing the equivalent of $72 and BBTS is charging $170? That's a huge markup. According to the pictures, Soundwave only costs 500 more yen than Red Alert. So it's not even $8. Closer to $6.
Also, Sideswipe in October. Did we know that already?

Everything else is "Meh" at best.

No, the price is right. You missed the 10000 Yen Symbol in the front. 1万6590円

Thanks for pointing out the price. It greatly helped me understand what he was saying as I was wondering why he said it was so low.![]()
That, and I wish I knew the actual price now... As I feel like a dork relying on old information tied to importing and pricing.
