    Well I found the "Target" exclusives at Australia Fair Toyworld on the Gold Coast. $27.99. Didn't even know these existed until I saw them. I have a higher quality picture but here's one for now..

    Damm it. There still charging nearly $30 for a deluxe, Hasbro are real rip-off merchants. With the exchange rate the way it is they should be charging $12 for the deluxe. With these All spark Deluxes being a new line they should drop there blood price.

    Really like the packaging. Don't like the baby blue paint.

    Australia toystores overcharge imports... that is just usual.

    I think these will become another round of all times high shelfwarmers ...

    See, THIS is why I'm not an avid TF collector. They should be seriously cheaper.

    Question for anyone who knows: How much are Voyager-class TFs in Australia? Because the Animated Voyagers are looking tempting.

    $40 - $45 AU each depending on where you go. That's over twice the American price.

    Yep, it's official: Australian Transformer prices SUCK. Eg, it costs you guys US$10 for a deluxe? For AUS$10, we get a frikkin' Robot Heroes 2-pack. It's MESSED UP.

    Well, here's your consolation:

    Prices are NOT better in Singapore either. :( 

    So now you've got company! ;)

    I 'd trade the US animated figures for NewZealand Golden Kiwi. Let me think Australia also got Golden Kiwi... just slightly pricier. But better than here in the US.
