    Great news for me since I don't have a lot of money to spend on the hobby to begin with and I've got that hard core GI Joe collection to keep up with and my casual Transformers hobby to keep up with.

    I can really only be casual with Transformers because sadly it's a fairly wealthy person's hobby with what you have to shell out for exclusives just to have a half way decent collection so I keep the Joes as my hard core since you don't even need the exclusive to have a really butt kicking collection.

    Still Hasbro thanks for any help you care to send my way on keeping me in my hobbies.

    And it only says most Hasbro and Mattel toys will be under $20. Since most TF toys fall into the likes of Legends, Activators, Deluxes and Voyagers, then that's pretty much business as usual.

    Wow.

    Glad to hear this since I'm about to go GI Joe collecting nuts here soon since they've announced the Marvel Joe scale line with Ironman and captain america in it.

    And yeah most TFs are already under 20, but voyagers and ultras are not. Just Bumper battlers, Deluxes, activators, and legends are. The price hike made voyagers above 20 now. So I'm hoping this is a sign of them having a drop till christmas, just as walmart's been still carrying that 7.77 price during what was supposed to be the start of the price hike.

    Damn you Hasbro!
    I'm going to be forever broke cause you guys keep making badass toys!
