You need your head checking if you think any of us are less disgruntled atthe prospect of getting an okish tf for more than it costs us to import f**king MP tfs...
£80, hasblo can f**k right of with that.
To put it in comparison, my three most expencive tf purchases ever were:
MP Starscream; aprox £69
MP Megatron; aprox £71
G1 Reissue Megatron; £75
All included postage in the price, where as this is £80, and I have to traips down to the closest TrU (not very close) to get it.
Screw that.

Yar. He should be no more than £40 here, if the yanks pay $80. Why should we pay more or less $160 for the same figure?

Even ignoring what the yanks pay for him, he simply isnt worth that kinda money, as far as Ive seen he does noething particularly new or inotive, he's just a relativly simple and large transformer with a lot of electronic dohikies that will get very boring very quickly.

It's still a damnslight less money than we are paying...
$100 vs $160...

Then quit bitching and don't buy him.
You're constantly negative, you know that? It's an endless, painful cycle that goes on and on and on. Seriously, give it a rest already.
I'm American, I'm not a "yank". I think the price is atrocious whether he's $80.00 or 160.00 and I won't pay either price for him. I'll wait for clearance or not at all, but I'm not going to bitch about it.
I'm not going to say "Oh look, the Kiwis got something new before we did! Damn them and their '08 Bumbles!" why? Because it's rude (and to some perhaps even offensive, sorry, using this only as an example) and it's ridiculous to get pissed off over some other country getting a toy a few weeks before we do.
Look, I'm sorry that Hasbro hasn't handled it's market in your area better, but that's not our faults, and bitching about the prices will get you nowhere. Just don't buy it!

Bit harsh, I dont think that Redimus called anyone a "yank". He is pretty negative about these things but he is right that we do get constantly stuffed in the UK. Its not just Hasbro that do it, everything is more expensive in the UK and for no good reason. Look at the PS3 for example. We pay more and our machines wont run a lot of the PS2 games cos they took the emulation chip out to save money!
As long as its not a personal attack I dont see anything wrong with venting concern at being ripped off or not treated fairly.
