    Yup, RK has been ridiculous with shipping prices these days.

    If RK is 179 I'm going to say USA online stores will charge 199-229

    So, I'm assuming that BBTS' price should be $189.90.

    If that's the case, AWESOME!

    I pre-ordered it. If a better deal comes up, I can cancel.
    No biggie.

    Oh, and the extra $80 is still a lot better than RK's ridiculous shipping.

    Glad to know the price now. It will be a pass for me now. I will buy the Hasbro one for 85$ less.

    Aside from costs, consider which product you'll be the most satisfied with or meets your needs.

    Yes, should have said that mine will be in combined mode 90% of the time.
    And I might want to paint it a bit myself for fun.
    The only thing I really like is the Takara head, but I am sure there will be a cool 3rd party one popping up, hopefully with lights (wishful thinking)

    I work at a drag strip so in december I'll be laid off living off the fat so to speak. Probably wont fly with the wife if im dropping over $200 on a massive figure lol. Im more flip floppy than a goddamn politician right now! Tbh $80 is alot to pay for some guns and useless elbows. Sigh

    They priced this one right...it's just painful enough to make the lower-content Hasbro version appealing again.

    I'm narrowing down which guys I drop serious cabbage on going forward. This one is worth the produce to me.

    Well to be fair I believe there's ratchet joints added to to the bot mode legs on the arms as well as arms on the other 4 modified to be tougher(?) with elbows details like mixys grill painted in and painted rims/hubs and finally the guns and awesome head.

    I'm getting hasbros now then if I really.like it and need a better copy I have that pre order in place ;)
