Space and money are also deciding factors. Money is not a problem for me, but SPACE is the real issue. Now, I even skip things that are non sale!
The days of grabbing everything in sight are clearly over for me.

Great, thanks WJ! I've got a Target in walking distance I can check out. Hopefully cheaper than Toys R Us.

Not to be a downer, but we already know the prices for Target, same as TRU (its a new MSRP from Hasbro themselves)

Ok cool then
But I think due to the increase, all shops will be pretty much equal (aside from collector shops which might charge more) so I think your TRU will charge $30 like Target.
Which toys do you plan on getting?

I have him in hand and I would say the part that really needs the most work would be his feet. The smokestacks arent great but at least the grey is a full colour. The feet have a very unfinished look to them like they are leftovers of a prototype.
And thanks for answering my question, I hope you get all the figures you want at the right price

Thanks for asking
I am interested in all the figures that arent redecos except for Steelbane. He will have to be pretty cheap for me to want him since I really dont like that Dragon mode. Barricade was quite disappointing though. Voyager OP is fine but the deco is off, as you have realized. Really looking forward to Hound, Scorn and Leader Megs.

Thanks, Chuckdawg! Snagged me an Optimus. I don't like that he's $35, but if I find him in the next couple weeks myself I can cancel and if not it'll cost me the same in bus fare anyway.
The deluxes are all going for $20 and Grimlock for $30, for anyone else interested. Looks like they just bumped up Prime because they could.

The Optimus Prime you ordered is NOT sold by Amazon, but by a third party vendor. Watch the listing and make sure it reads shipped and sold by Amazon.

Good catch, thanks - again! I cancelled him, I'll keep an eye out in case he pops up again at the right price.

Oh? That's interesting to know. I look forward to your expanded thoughts on him.
