A few months ago, someone posted a screenshot taken from a TRU computer. It had a listing for "MP Bumblee and Spike" or something similar. Folks took that to mean the TRU release would include both figures.

Edit: As I recall, it had a listed price of $99.99. Assuming that was USD, then the Canadian price is sadly all too plausible.

Re: MP Bumblebee coming to TRU

What really turns me off is that MPs are almost pure money grab from Hasbro. Considering that, since MPs are Takara's initiative, designs, R&D, engineering and all the hard work are done and paid for by Takara, and Takara can still charge a lower price for few production runs. Hasbro just took what Takara have already paid and done and run with it and they want even more money.

I'd rather spend me money to get Takara's Red MP Bee. It's actually very nice.

Good find -- I had the price wrong. But that makes $129.99 that much more egregious. It's DOUBLE the US price.

I think I saw recently on TFW2005, you can get price near that, of course it's probably not MISB.

Edit: actually no, I just did a search, it's around USD 60 om TFW2005
