I saw it with Megatron, Laserwave, and others, I see it with Sunstreaker, and I'm tapping out. I just can't justify upwards of $200CAD for a flipping carbot. That's just retarded to me.
From here on, I consider myself a 3P/KO collector.
Frankly, Takara has offended me to the point where I refuse to buy their products.

Takara has not even announce the Japanese MSRP. BBTS always jumps the gun put up a high price tag for pre-order. I really don't understand what BBTS can achieve by this sort of action. If you are offended, it should be importers like BBTS, not the manufacturers. I always order from Japan myself.
Also keep in mind Canadian $ is pretty shitty now compared to 5 years ago. So naturally everything now costs more just by pure exchange rate.
