Not quite true - he’s 199 something in store, and if you use rbc you get 20 percent back!

I got one at the time, in addition with the R-Club 10% off coupon. Pretty neat!

There was the Buy one Get 2nd 50% off reg prices items... So that is also 25% off each if you buy 2...

Except they raised the regular price so 25% off isn't really 25% off

Paid around 200 for Omega Supreme at the 20% off sale from Toys R Us, so I am not complaining. I still haven't open him up yet, but I know I won't regret looking at all the reviews. Amazon has been above the 200 marks all this time, so I am not waiting. It seems like I have been spending quite a lot on Transformers this year, hopefully I will spend less next year.

I don't think we'll be seeing any Titan Class figures in the $100 range this Boxing Week.

Nope, Amazon looks pretty dry this year. Last year I got TR Nemesis Prime, Blast Off and Repugnus for about $63 such a sweet, sweet deal. I miss you sweet deals!

Not getting an Omega until it's down to $150 before tax, which seems unlikely at this point. However, if anyone doesn't want Countdown, I'll pay for that Micromaster!

I keep hoping to see Galactic Man go down like the Skywarp set did (at around 50$ and so glad that I managed to get it then).

But between him at around 90$, and the crazy price of Red Wing at about 200$, the "exclusives" have really been nasty.

BUT... that insane price for Red Wind did have the beneficial result of making me convert (paint) a StarScream into one, and now, every time I compare mine to an authentic one's pictures, I will honestly say that between them, mine looks simply amazing, and I'm not saying that because I did it, but because it really does look freaking good/better.

I didn't think that I would have managed to do an half-decent job, but turned out that I outdid myself.

It's always been $249.99, we're not going back to $229.99 from previous lines. So it is 25% off if you buy 2

This is more or less where I'm at as well. Mainly because of Siege Jetfire. I got it as a gift when Amazon.ca did that sale price of $75, and as cool as it is, all I keep thinking is "thank christ I didn't pay the full $120 price for it". It is NOT worth that, so I'm pretty confident Omega isn't worth his usual $250 price either.
