    Yeah that pricing sounds more in line with what those World's Smallest figs go for. Although I have noticed Snake Eyes seems to be going for $9.99 as well, possibly short packed compared to the others or just capitalizing on a popular figure. Either way it's weird since the Power Rangers figures don't have the same pricing scheme going not even for Green Ranger.

    World Smallest Transformers Generation 1 - Optimus Prime
    World Smallest Transformers Generation 1 - BumbleBee

    World's Smallest GI Joe vs Cobra - Snake Eyes
    World's Smallest GI Joe vs Cobra - RoadBlock
    World's Smallest GI Joe vs Cobra - Duke

    World's Smallest Power Ranger Action Figure - Yellow
    World's Smallest Power Ranger Action Figure - Blue
    World's Smallest Power Ranger Action Figure - Black
    World's Smallest Power Ranger Action Figure - Pink

    I note that the Joes get their own individual packages, while the TFs are all stuck with Prime on the package.... (can't quite tell with the PRs)

    At least they're even smaller than the original WSTs

    Found them at Target, meh ... they are just the Dollar Store figs scaled down...the arms and head swivel though. Not worth the money IMHO.

    I'm more interested in the mini GI*JOE's than the mini Transformers because I think those Joes will display great with Transformers.

    In the Easter toys section, they have World's Smallest Transformers at Target. Only have found Prime and Bumblebee, even though it has Starscream on the back. Only $4.99

    I think Hasbro should change their licensing policy for Transformers; right now, the arrangement states that no 3rd party may create licensed Transformers product that converts; fine, that means that a 3rd party can’t muck up the integrity of the main brand on behalf of Hasbro themselves, but what happens when you have some World’s Smallest Transformers that were created by a first party already, when the product on hand has a predetermined transformation scheme?

    Why can’t Super Impulse/Basic Fun license those molds, abiding by Hasbro’s quality standards, footing the bill for production and distributing them in their line?

    It would take a "super impulse" for me to buy some BS like these, lol.

    I found these last week when I was in the US for Toy Fair. Didn't know they hadn't been spotted yet. Grabbed a prime, because why not.

    Wow, had no idea these hadn't been reported, I bought a Starscream weeks ago, early January, at my local Target. Optimus is still there as of yesterday.

    That's some false advertising BS with that "Yes, Actually works!" on the display.

    No, no they do not.
