    No challenge at cybertron? That is the height of BS-ery.

    Why all the buthurt?

    As I said in another thread:
    There was no indication that this will be released in the US market. The only thing that was mentioned was from an AA news update that was later corrected. Here was the post.

    Wasn't the price for the 3 pack like 39.99 or something through places like BBTS and TFSource? Up to 54.99 now. Although I could be completely wronf about that.

    It was always $54.99. $39.99 was one of the prices thrown around by wishful thinking fans on how much the set would cost if it was released in the US.

    This still might be a surprise item as a "Black Friday" item.

    I've still been trying to figure out how Target even got into the equation.....

    True...but even those chances seems to be incredibly slim. With Hasbro saying this now, and it's only just over a couple of months before Black Friday, and with no retailer assigned to it......yeah....that's a no go.

    No Challenge at Cybertron set? aww...
    That looks like a really nice set too...

    Darn, I really wanted that set released here...I'm not willing to pay import prices for it though. I need to cut back on my spending.

    Aw well, less money spent.

    BBTS has the set for $54.99, even with shipping that's still not so bad, especially considering people want almost $40 for just Classics Rodimus, what's another $20 or so for two more figures with all three having superior color choices than the originals?

    And anyway, "no plans" doesn't mean "never". A lot of former Asian-exclusives and paintjobs started out with Hasbro having "no plans" to release them, but those plans eventually changed. So maybe they will again?

    True, but "no plans" means at least means not this or next year.
