Released in Asia end of week before last i think. (?) Got mine from Robotkingdom last Tuesday anyway. At $120 plus shipping, plus taxes, may still work out cheaper for Malaysian buyers than purchasing locally.
And I just want to know if there'll be Stateside TRU availability. I have a $100 return merchandise card from bringing back that shitty YOTH Starscream 3 months after feeling stupid for buying it (fortunately all the crumbling paint counted as a defect).
Doubt it. No placards at Botcon/SDCC to indicate anything other than being a BBTS exclusive in the US. In addition, the voyager Optimus/Grimlock platinum set was a TRU exclusive in Asia but is exclusive to Kmart and BBTS here.
Isn't the Autobots United set going to be a Canadian TRU exclusive as well? I would prefer to buy this in hand because I want to inspect it for quality control.
so basically, you're paying between 20 and 30 dollars for each toy in the set. Then add tax and shipping.
