    For reference, the sets' official names are "Autobot Heroes" and "Armada of Cyclonus".

    The latter has already been released in Hong Kong, whereas this is the first worldwide release of the "Autobot Heroes" set.

    S$299 is about $222 USD.

    With platinum pricing, I'd expect this to be $150 in the USA. $99 would be more appropriate though.

    That is absurd. It's approximately $115 worth of figures. Slap the platinum tag on and maybe it's worth $150. And they couldn't even throw in the new Blurr.

    Damn that's a pretty box. I love how the characters inside are arranged in the order same as the box art.

    Still...$200+ is super expensive. I'm sure timing was an issue, but TR Blurr would have been a much better choice than the old CHUG toy...

    Thanks! Normally for us singaporens, it would be worth S $240 or more (not counting some old molds) $30 per deluxe, $50 per voyager, $100 per leader. overpriced but the metallic blue paint on maggy is awesome but it covers some parts only. :(

    Yes.

    I really wanted this set, but there's no way I'll be able to afford this; not at full price, anyways. I suppose the most I can hope for is enough people won't buy it that it'll get discounted by a few bucks (read: a hundred?). Otherwise, Titans Return takes priority this year.

    You're better off just buying CW Magnus, Gen. Springer, and the Arcee/Chromia two pack from BBTS and then getting TR Blurr and the rumored TR Kup.

    That'll save you $90. I think I'd only want this set for the awesome packaging anyway, I already own all the molds in it except Arcee.

    As neat as this set is, all I care about is someone picking up the box and seeing if there's the Liokaiser cross-sell on it for a better quality scan.

    It's actually this guy, Minimus Ambus.

    Although I do wonder why Hasbro didn't turn him into Daniel for this set.
