LOL, QFT my friend. ah, the sting of customs tariffs. i hope you guys could find a way around the complicated process of bribes and shady government officials so that you could also order from abroad.

eh? i just look the store up in the directory, call and try to find out the number to the toy department/TK, list those numbers down, and call the stores anytime as long as the mall's open.
is this not allowed there in the north?

Thanks for this new scientific knowledge!

I'm in an insignificant place in Northern Luzon where there is no SM or Toy Kingdom, save for a small Robinsons Department Store.
Buy i check out the toys in Metro Manila from time to time. Particularly Greenhills area. Occassionally, Makati too.

Recently purchased paylod deluxe class, the plastic material really looks brittle compared my Jazz, BB and Barricade. I looked at the hobby shop today and saw takara version long arm, from the plastic itself, it would seem that material is consistent with my other autobots. I further suspect that my payload is a knock off. anyone with a payload that can concurr? Payload price i got was 900. Longarm was 1300 but still deciding if i will get it. How can one spot anyone since there maybe fakes already?

what? it's only been like a month or so since these have seen worldwide release... maybe the plastic is REALLY that brittle, considering that the movie line sported some of the worst cases of plastic compromise in TF toy history, maybe due to the demand of these toys.

bought locally but the source supposedly came from Malaysia or Singapore. The other thing is that the front grill keeps coming off and the circular face does not want snap on properly.
