    Shit, I didn't know this set was "sought after"... In Hagerstown MD, I've been seeing them for months at The Christmas Tree Shop.

    I know TRU likes to overprice, but this is getting ridiculous. My local TRU has Rodimus and Ironhide for $14.99 and Cybertron Ratchet for $11.99, plus these. These were $15-20 bucks everywhere a year ago, and now they get them and charge $24.99...

    I understand Rodimus and Ironhide's increase, but this pack never sold to begin with. So why raise the price?

    I think it is more called 'Christmas shoppers'. Parents going into TRU will see that the kid will get 3 TF & decide to pick that up instead of 3 individual toys.

    Was making rounds in a local mall few hours ago. Saw one in the bargain bin. And its LESS THAN us$16 (after conversion from my local currency).

    I skip it since I already got Scattorshot (which also was snatched in a bargain bin in my local Carrefour at about approx us$5).

    The Universe Scout three-pack was a Sainsburys store exclusive here in the UK. Hung around on shelves for ages at the mental price of £23. It went down to £3.99 last week so it was finally worth buying.

    They have these on toysrus.com in stock for $12.49. You can do in-store pick up/send-to-store and not have to pay shipping.
