This is more of a queston mark. That movie chronicle megatron set used to be crazy expensive, but now I see it for 142$ shipped http://www.ebay.com/itm/Takara-TOMY-Tra ... SwKrhVaFYT

Does anyone remember how much it was when it originally came out? Is this a good deal?

I recently picked up a set for $120. There was an eBay bucks promotion at the time, so I earned about $7 back also.

STOP THE PRESSES, IT 5% OFF!!!!.......From a 50% INCREASE of the price. Originally, the thing was around 100$ + shipping.

So, no. Not a good deal.

Still, it's the only place to have a premium looking DOTM voyager megs. But is it worth 150$? The G1 Megs have no accessories beside the arm canon/visor and his colors are all wrong.

G1 megs comes with his chromed sword, gun and pellets as well.

Anyone seen any comparisons between Combiner Wars Bruticus and Warbotron's wb-01? Just wondered which would look better and if its just a little better or alot. also how he would compare in size with CW Devy.

Also (and reason I am putting post here) has anyone seen reasonable prices on warbotron if he is indeed a superior version? I know from reviews they both have their issues. I seen warbotron the other day for 399 on a site but most are charging crazy prices for him (not that 399 isn't also crazy which is why I didn't jump on it).

Leader Starscream is only 35$ canadian at walmart.ca (25$ US)

Nice, but the extended canon and the arm-rest thing are MIA.

Nice to try the mold if found for below 80$. Worthless if you have to pay more.

If anyone in canada is still missing Generations Whirl, Walmart is practically begging you to take him at 15$ (10.50$ US)

I posted this in the Canada sightings thread, but thought it would be worthwhile to toss here as well

They've even been discounted (not enough for most) and I just saw them discounted further, and with a buy one get the second half off (the already discounted price)! I bought my Goatly Soundwave a while ago, so I decided to snag Prime and the Insecticons (together just 140 CAD!). The new base prices are in the pics below, along with my receipt.

Wow....

Damn. 100$ off for Devy IS a great deal.
100$ off butterscotch Platinum Optimus? Not so much.

Nice Shajaki! I hope we see similar sales in the US...

Scramblecore has some stuff on sale, including Devastator, and free shipping on orders over $150 http://scramblecore.com/search?q=transformers

Well, this is for folks who might actually be looking for one and not wanting to pay its full price.

important: anyone know of any hasbro toy shop coupons going on right now?
