    Preordered! Even though I think Hasbro's Q&A hints at Grimlock being released in fall 2009.

    I had. Just once. Don't remember what item it was.

    In my experience, HLJ prices plus shipping are similar to BBTS prices. Probably a bit less. On top of that you have to add BBTS shipping, so in the end - for Japanese stuff - BBTS is more expensive indeed.

    OTOH, when using an american card in HLJ, you get hit with an international fee usage which isn't too much, but also adds some to HLJ's price.

    How's that overpriced then? They pay more to get the product, so they charge more.

    I got an email today from BBTS indicating the price of MP-08 Grimlock has been lowered from $149.99 to $143.99.

    $6 cheaper ain't much, but it's something. :)
