Re: Hasbro Movie MP Bumblebee pre-order

Considering MP G1 Bumblebee was $119.99, I think this one is a "bargain" at $129.99 with all the die-cast and the more intricate transformation.

TRU, surprisingly, was more reasonable this time with the asking price.

Not really a movie toy-line fan, but this Bee definitely is sweet.

Re: Hasbro Movie MP Bumblebee pre-order

I just keep going back to the prices for MP Soundwave, Starscream and even Grimlock. I realize the dollar was worth more even a few years ago, but...I still think it's overpriced, IMO. I think 79 bucks would be about right.

Don't even mention MP Bumblebee...that thing was INSANELY overpriced. Considering how much toy you got at that size, and again, Starscream cost less! It was a cash grab and I didn't even consider it when I saw it...shelfwarming, of course. I just go Takara, myself. But that's been a bit of an issue with MPM Bee, hence the TRU route.

Re: Hasbro Movie MP Bumblebee pre-order

We knew since day 1 that he would be 100$ USD at toysrus. This is exactly that same price with conversion so i dont know why anyone would be surprised.

In hand, I'd say he feels more Alternity than Masterpiece, even though he looks Masterpiece. Maybe it's just me. Regardless, I'm glad it exists!

He's $80 US, which should be around $105 Canadian. TRU is scalping their own products as usual.

TRU site has limit of 2, so coupon might not work.

My bad, I confused it with the Optimus price.
