I got them gor around $80.00 USD Each. If you go to a place called Phat Collectables, you can buy, sell, and trade your tfs gundams marvel and more! Some guy buys these revoltech guys and sells them to phats. Iv'e also seen them in japanese toy stores in malls, but that's were you pay like $100.00 for just one, wich is why I hav'nt opened the two I have already... Just saying, they ARE in the us, you just need to look.

Not trying to rain on your parade, but literally yesterday I bought Magnus, Rodimus, Megatron, and Starscream for about $120, total, shipped. Deals are available.

My parade is very high and dry thank you! I bought these, just these two, a LONG time ago. Not only that, but I also bought a crapload of other stuff, so my pricing my be off...
Could have swore it was like 80 bucks each though... Just the reason I never open them. Still, can't say I'm a fan, at lest, not for their TF Stuff, if it doesn't transform, it's not a transformer! Their like expensive robot replicas with little extra features and tweaks! Evangelion in the other hand that's were their strength is.

I agree:

I got hooked on Revoltech Evas by Counterpunch at Otakon this year and I've been on a bit of a spending spree to get a bunch of them. The Mass Production (Wing) is still my favorite!

In addition to the new images of Revoltech's Movie Universe Optimus Prime from Wonder Festival 2011, we also have video review. Take a look at the heavily armed and highly articulated figure below.

That Pixely 8-bit music was really getting to me...
Seriously, at least try to make it sound cooler than that! Like in the scott pilgrim game!
I feel like I'm the only one who enjoys scott pilgrim though, now that I think about it...
Still, it's a nice figure, but I like my primes to TRANSFORM.
On another note, these guys would probably be successful doing an animated line, huh?

Sure beats ones that turn into cosmic-can openers.

might get it after seeing video would have perferd if it came with differnt head to be swapped out or hook, or an axe oh well

I'm surprised that the fig has ratcheted joints.

I used to hear complaints of loose joints on Revoltech figs, and was totally surprised to hear clicking sounds beneath that annoying soundtrack when the reviewer moved the limbs.

Nice, overall, although the weapons could have included the axe and shield from DOTM.
