Toys R US UK now has a listing for the Ultimate Bumblebee figure, listed as "in stock". The toy features animatronics hands, arms and wings, lights, car and battle sounds, speech and music.

The figure is priced rather high (£79.99), but you can view the listing (for free) by clicking here

Is it really worth $90 to buy something that can't transform as complicated as a Masterpiece figure?

In the UK it's £80, which is $160 at the current exchange rate.

Wow... funny how the £10 deluxe is actually more movie-accurate than £80 ultimate...

I really don't like that ultimate, it looks... well kinda like someone's taken the deluxe, made it bigger, put in more detail, and made it much better...
Then scrapped all that & created a monstrosity with more kibble than those Nike shoe shellformers...

way too much money anyway and linking to dabattousai the transformation looks complicated.

Wow, 80 quid for that. Hmmm, I think I'd be happier with my 80 quid. Considering it's roughly 240 Aussie-dollars and all.

Ooh, my first post!

Yup, I can confirm, they have them in store, I saw one on the shelves yesterday.

And the pricing policy for the UK SEEMS to be "take the price in US $ then swap the $ sign for a £ sign. Exchange rates are for them as likes them, but not for us"

He's really large judging by the size comparison with your foot. Would be great to have some photos too. Just don't transform him as roughly as that idiot on the Taiwanese video.
