:)Good God you must be a glutton for punishment to try and keep this up, The longer it goes the uglier the prices will get:D

[liegeprime]

Ill just wait for what I can get locally. Thanks for the post DD! puts things easier to view when their listed that way...

No worries liege. :) And I think I'll end up mainly buying locally too. I bought the Takara voyagers online recently as a) They're arguably the best version of each toy and b) I fear FE Prime won't be released locally, rather we'll probably just receive the new Powerizer Voyager Prime which isn't as show accurate. If this happens, we'll no doubt see the FE prices go up, up, up, uuupppppp *KA-BOOMBA!* :D

My biggest annoyance is the ratios with 3x Bumblebee/Optimus which really make it hard to find buyers for - I still have a sealed 1st ed. Bumblebee -_-

Deluxe wave 3 seems good even with the 2 Bumblebee redecos (hot shot) particularly so if you don't have the 1st ed. BB, and legion wave 2 only has 2 BB's and the rest uniques but you miss out on cliffjumper and ratchet from wave 1. Best pick would be the Cyberverse vehicles with 2 Jacky's to 1 Knockout.

My biggest concern is pricing in Australia. From watching the video reviews of deluxe Wheeljack, Cliffjumper and Bumblebee, the new deluxes seem very small! Wheeljack is the size of henkei/classics Bumblebee.... and considering Bumblebee, Cliffjumper and Vehicon are all getting new molds... its very worrying to me :/

Online price guide updated 31/01/12.

[Paulbot]

Maybe you could include local store prices (now they're appearing here) for both contrast and also to help people find the cheapest in store price?

TRU's $50 Powerisers should be near the high end (Myer and DJ may still charge more)

[Doubledealer]

Yeah maybe. Still summoning up the strength to make another update. :p

[ike_ike]

ah, super useful thread! methinks it's time to finally dip a toe into the wild and exaggeratedly lawless frontier of internet shopping.

it's slightly ridiculous that i can buy a pair of bumblebees and have them shipped across the world for slightly more than the price of a locally bought one, but eeeh.

[AJ_Prime]

Fantastic source of info, thanks Doubledealer!

I bought Bulkhead off of this guy. He's raised all of his prices since then. :rolleyes:

And he sold 36 sets too. Cha-ching!

Does anyone have a theory as to why you can't pre-order a Takara Wheeljack anywhere? It annoys me greatly. :p

[Paulbot]

I've been trying to find Hasbro deluxes online for the low $20s each (after postage) but am having no luck. I can only find that sort of price if I buy a case and end up with the surplus figures. So far I appear to be better off just waiting for Big W to get them in.

[Doubledealer]

Sorry it's taken me so long to update the guide folks, and glad to hear it's been useful. I appreciate the positive feedback. :)

I've taken Paulbot's suggestion on board so we now have a local retail prices guide too.

Please refer to the first page to see the newly updated price guide. Thanks all and happy hunting!

Absolutely amazing work DD, as usual a solid effort - This thread really should be temporarily stickied for the benefit of everyone; members and non-members alike. ;):cool:

Hehe, thought I'd spruce it up a tad. :D And I certainly wouldn't object to a mod making this thread a sticky, would be sweet!
