    When I first read this it seemed like a blast form the past, these popped up at CVS and such a few Christmases ago.

    Man hopefully other random old stock will pop up like those G1 Universe minibots.

    I wouldn't mind spending $25 on that. Those three toys are excellent and 100% worth the money.

    About $8.50. That's not a fixed price though, hell, my local toy store sells them for about $12.

    The news page writer who says $24.99 is a "low, low price" is operating under some definition of "low" of which I have been previously unaware.

    Really? In Canada we got these at Canadian Tire for less than $25 when they were new like last Christmas, then they showed up at Winners (a sort of discount/liquidation world store) a few months later for like $18, and now I just saw a bunch of them at a warehouse liquidation sale two days ago for $15.

    I remember seeing them at a Walgreens for $15. Never bothered to pick it up since I already have the cybertron versions.

    Maybe TRU thought some extra product would look nice, since their shelves are dominated by old movie figures and WFC Prime and BB these days.

    I didn't realize this was news.
    Walgreens in Denville, NJ has had these on the shelves since last Christmas. for $19.99
    And the Christmas Tree Shoppe in Rockaway, NJ has had them just as long.

    I got this last year for Christmas. That's because my original Scattorshots backpack snapped off, I didn't have Repungus, and the GTS Ransack is an awesome repaint.
