It's already available here and it's $149.99 at Toys 'R' Us.

Sorry Gok, I couldn't tell you how many they had left because the one I got, the girl just got it out of storage for me because they weren't on the shelves.

They must've been sitting on a palate waiting to be shelved, cos there were quite a few when I went there today. :)

would it be cheaper to buy it from RK or ebay and ship it here?????? Just compared to what it cost here its more than Toys R Us (US).


I just had a look on eBay if you are willing to pay a bit more you can get the Takara version :)

It's US$70 from RK and with the aussie dollar above 90 cents, it may end up being cheaper but not by much. Worth a shot if you're looking to save a few bucks.

It's A$104 shipped from RK. Cheaper if you add more items to the order.

The TakaraTOMY version is the same toy - just different packaging. Also, the TakaraTOMY version doesn't come with the crown. Only the limited edition comes with the crown in Japan, but it has Nel Yomtov inspired colours (bleeccchh). The Hasbro version is the best of both worlds - original G1 toy colours and the crown!

King Grimlock is a thing of beauty, by far my most favorite release of this mold.

Have you seen it in person?
