No way they could have been 40$ and then went DOWN, that's not how inflation works.
I think you have things a little mixed up. 2004 was the last year that the term MEGA was used as a price point and that was during Energon (Toy examples like Jetfire and Ironhide). In mid 2005 when Cybertron made it's debut, MEGAs turned into Voyagers (Example Vector Prime) while the Ultra price point still remained (Example Scourge/Flame Convoy).

Also keep in mind the naming conventions during that Armada to present era changed back and forth and sometimes JUST for a wave. Deluxes were called Deluxes from 1996 to 2001, then Super-Cons till 2004, then "Combat" for Energon's first half, then back to Deluxe in the 2nd half, from Cybertron onward it stayed that....

and that's one micro example.....

I will stop now.
