    New headcanon: Punch/Counterpunch will unite the Decepticons and Autobots as Autocon Prime, carrying the Matrix in his/their armor. :lol

    Nearly forgot that I have a proxy U.S. shipping address that I can use to get around that hilarious shipping charge to Canada. Ordered. Now hopefully Repugnus comes up again soon.

    It's been discovered in the UK general discussion that the weight for this is listed at nearly ten pounds!

    Just got mine ordered. If you don’t have Amazon Prime, the trick is finding something cheap to add, since Punch is ONE FREAKIN’ PENNY shy of qualifying for free shipping on its own.

    $53.83 to get to Canada?! Well it was cheaper than when I got the TFCC version for $200 for shipping.

    shipping and tax internationally is wrong on this guy: by comparison, Voyager Inferno costs $38.46 and amazon adds+ $18.86 usd for both shipping and taxes....

    Meanwhile, Amazon won't even sell to Australia anymore because it's just too hard for them to figure out our tax system...

    That was me! Do I get a news credit, Haha?

    Seriously, Amazon.com usually are very cheap with their international costs for small items, but when it gets to Titans and Collossal T-Rexes and Batmobiles it gets very expensive, so when I saw the Counterpunch price I knew straight away.

    First time poster, long time reader. Live in Sweden,like people above says;shipping to Sweden 100-130 USD.

    Any kind US member that wanna buy 1 extra and i Paypal you money when they ship? :) 

    Really hope this is just wrong shipping costs, similiar items (TF) is around 20-40 USD.

    I am able to get 2 for just over 50 bucks... I hate scalpers, but if the real world is hurting real life shipping costs, hit me up.

    Maybe if this means it's all diecast but no way this is 5 times heavier then Nemesis Prime.
    Maybe everyones is buying 5 for the price of 1 :D

    I wonder if it would be better for our international friends to just go ahead and preorder now anyway?

    You won't get charged right away, and you'll have plenty of time to contact Amazon and get them to change the weight of the figure or at least adjust your order so that you are charged the real shipping price. And if they don't, it's easy enough to cancel your order and go elsewhere.

    Hopefully someone gets one in hand ahead of orders going uo because I'd love to have two if they do in fact combine.

    It seems like the weight for this figure is way off.
