    Voyagers regularly go for more than the GPB equivalent of $30.

    Its funny seeing Americans getting pissed over a price we are used to paying for the same sized toys.

    And £30 Superion is a good price if you think of him as a £10 deluxe and four £5 Scouts.


    Personally though, I am not interested in Superion. If this had been Bruticus though, I'd be interested.

    Looks promising though he might turn up. I wonder who Debenham's wholesaler is to get Superion out at that price.

    The bad thing is that if the price goes up in America then it will certainly go up here as well.

    Who cares, its here now for £24. I can still see this being £45 in Toys R Us etc, same as the leaders unfortunately.

    I wonder if this is the Low cost combiner assortment that has been showing up on the USA systems?

    Was a joke lol, :popcorn 

    Seriously though, this would indicate that it is likely to ship more readily imminently.

    Picked up Superion from the Trafford Centre Debenhams for £24.00
    I phoned ahead and they put one behind the till for me.

    This is the 1st energon Combiner i have bought (missed out on Devi :(  ) its a good figure.

    I read on the Hub that a TRU employee has already seen these being delivered but has don't open untill 21st June printed on the box.
