I like this figure though.

Saw that price and praised Primus that I was one of the super lucky few that got the MP 11 Thundercracker when he was released at TRU a couple years back.
I actually found him on the shelf at the TRU store in Vaughan, ON and paid the whopping full retail price of $69.99 + tax.
I am so glad that I scored that guy at that time, and even gladder (is that a word?) that they are releasing MP11 Starscream at the comparatively good price of $89.99, which I just preordered today. I will be gladdest (I know for sure that is not a word) if they do the same thing for Skywarp at TRU sometime next year.
If I can manage to get domestic releases of all three original seekers in the MP 11 mold at half the price of their overseas dopplegangers, I'll be a happy fanboy.
On a somewhat related note, I guarantee that the $200us price tag of this Takara version will result in the price of the TRU Thundercracker going up to at least that. I saw one MISB at TFCON this year for $120. I think those days are now gone.
