    Well, this pisses me off for two reasons. I hate giving Walmart money, and that's just overpriced.

    Now I have to pay too much, and Walmart gets even MORE of my money. But be damned..... I will have my seekers. ><

    Well, they must've dropped the price then, because regular Ultras are $24.99 or $25.99

    I did noticed that both figures have no fingers. Just the old missle launchers as hands.

    How can they be released if you can't even purchase them?

    Went to a Walmart on Mothers Day, found the deluxes, tried to buy them, they were on "recall". How is it that some people can buy these?

    Yeah It really seems you guys won't have a problem at all finding these.

    They could try it if they want to....but if $30.00 ain't flipping that flapjack......

    i think the colorschemes are actually quite nice, but man do i hate that mold...
    o really? huh, might be a regional thing with Ultra pricing? >shrugs<
    i always thought it was wierd cuz both the TrUs i go to are right by Targets which would always have the Ultras for normal price, seemed hard to justify...

    $30!? No thanks, if it was the new mold I'd consider it but not for this.

    The packaging and extras probably factor into this.
