So, a friend just sent me a link to this:

Re-release Piranacon's for £20...so tempting if I didn't need money for stuff next year T.T
In any case, just thought I'd share this with you guys

Poor Piranacon xD

I'd buy that in a heartbeat if I didn't find his color scheme utterly ridiculous.

He was "G2" before his time lol!

That's an insult to G2. XD I actually like most G2 decos, this just clashes too much. >.>;

That's for the UK only, and it's not from Amazon themselves, but a 3rd party reseller.

It's much better in person, I assure you.

Hey, hey, hey! ...G2 wasn't that bad. (if you're drunk.)

Some G2 was alright.

So, I ran the Amazon number from the UK site and it does show up on the US version.

AUS has the same item @ $121.19 (man, people are stupid and gullible sometimes and people like this dude are straight up thieves.)

Which is the same product as this: http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/prod ... ode=retail for $44.99 (and it's the retailer it's supposed to come from, BBTS. Y'know, since it's their exclusive and all...)

It's amazing to me how different it is between countries. This is the problem with US retailers... Piranacon was available all over the world (which is why his price is so low in the UK, Asia, you get the idea) but was an exclusive to BBTS in North America (Canada, US, Mexico) which made the price higher and makes the thieves work so much harder at ripping you off.

Still, not to look a gift horse in the mouth, we've been fortunate and blessed, here in the states, with getting items the rest of the world hasn't. (I truly do feel bad for you guys. I'm not sure why Hasbro screws people over so badly. -_-)

I cant believe how cheap that is. Its £23 inc postage, you would pay that for Prime Skyquake at TRU ( when Skyquake wasn't in the sale ).

I wasn't all that fussed about Pirancon but I'm almost tempted by the fact that its a bargain alone.

Yeah, Hasbro tends to screw the UK over on figures every so often-I rarely found a Prime RiD Skyquake in stores and when I did, it's when I had no money!! We occasionally find a few bits in stores like Forbidden Planet, but the price is driven up slightly as it's classed as an import.

I have no idea if Springer or any of the other voyagers will make their way over here to the UK, but I won't get my hopes up. If I had the money I'd import 'em but there's too many TFs I want to import and nowhere near enough money to do so!!
