After a notification from board member Stuartmaximus, the disgruntled Brits have set out towards local Toys'R'Us store, and the following proof comes from Insurgent and the Nottingham store, priced at £37.49!
Also included in the images below is the sighting of the Platinum Edition Trypticon, same store, at £199.99. Check out the photos mirrored here, and happy weekend hunting. If you come across new toy sightings, make sure to use our database to inform other fans, too!

Well they're doing themselves no favors by inflating the prices so much
Truth is the franchise is stronger than ever. Just look at New York Comic Con. Last year they held a press party and the only new Generations reveals were Leader Thundercracker and Legends Huffer. The only panels they held were for RID and an IDW comic panel. This year they had a big multimedia presentation and revealed an entire new line of figures. And that's on top of big displays at SDCC, BotCon, and New York Toy Fair. If anything the franchise as a whole is getting too big and us fans are struggling to keep up, especially when you factor in the stuff Takara Tomy is doing.

Don't forget in the UK they have the taxes (it's called VAT, right?) built into the prices so it's not entirely Hasbro's fault.
