Instead of Asidstorm, might as well get Thundercraker instead. Cheaper and more establish character. IMHO

From what I read, that would depend on how the sales for Metroplex would be..and I mean the ACTUAL sales, not the discounted, shelf-warmer special. It could either be Tripticon, or Scorponok.

Plus, if you look below, it does say Biggest AUTOBOT ever. Chances to get a big Decepticon? I think its likely. biggrin.gif

Hehe I also noticed that rm620 sale. If item is hard to find can understand lah, but looks like a lot of stock at the moment.

As for fair price...err... RM499 maybe? biggrin.gif But yeah I guess need to factor in the cassette price also...

Ok so this is what annoys me a little:

http://www.toysrus.com/buy/action-figures/...-a4348-19038126

Price in US is only $120. That's less than RM400! Such a big markup for Malaysia right???

Pricing strategy differs from market to market..cannot compare direct conversion rates ah..

Normally I'd agree with you, but there are limits to price variation in today's globalized market, and a markup of over 40% is a little ridiculous. These are toys, not cars with crazy government tax slapped on them haha.

Apparently it's sold out in US for now, second batch is coming late August. If at this point supply is able to catch up with demand, it could easily work out cheaper to buy Soundwave MP on eBay US, even with shipping cost factored in:

RM380 for item + RM80 ~ RM150 for shipping = total cost of between RM460 ~ RM530. That's a saving of up to RM130 on the local TRU price! Will also be interesting to see if local toyshops bring him in. Either way I'm buying, but don't know if can wait so long tongue.gif
