It is great that I don't want to buy any of them, a lot of money is saved.

So is Hasbro going to increase the price of these year of the by 50$ each year? Cause the year of the horse optimus was 150$

Do they come with a real goat? I think you can buy a real goat for that much.

Goats are cute.

Nice to look at, nice to hold, but never never meant to be owned.

Ill-conceived, overpriced, unwanted.

I wouldn't underestimate how much the fandom is drawn to higher priced re-reissues.

Armada Unicron was liquidated to 25$.
fans weren't interested.
1 year later he was recoloured for Energon and the fandom was buying him at the 80$ mark.

Lots of examples, for sure! :D

EASY pass. They aren't even that nice, at half the price.

Re: Platinum Soundwave, Optimus Prime & Insecticons Released in Canada
 
219$ soundwave, 149$ insecticons, 109$ for tiger dagger, 89$ for tigerzord.............wth TRU?!?:mad:

Soundwaves 03-20-2015 07:01 PM

Re: Platinum Soundwave, Optimus Prime & Insecticons Released in Canada
 
With what the fandom is readily paying 3p companies for unofficial products, it was only a matter of time before Hastak caught on and started charging similar prices for products that are geared towards us.

Re: Platinum Soundwave, Optimus Prime & Insecticons Released in Canada
 
in calgary, the insecticons set is 120.00$.......the first reissue set a couple years ago was 39.99....
so we're now apparently gullible enough to pay 80.00$ more for a spiffy box and 3 energon cubes lolz.

Even the guy at my TRU laughed when he brought up the price for that Prime.

Re: Platinum Soundwave, Optimus Prime & Insecticons Released in Canada
 
Yup saw them all at tru Pickering the other day. Forgot the price for Soundwave so asked to be scanned. Would have bought if was the same as reg mp sw was. I actually laughed when the guy scanned it. $219 FULL TRU. sucks bc i kind of like him. :( oh well.
