It's now down to US$48... as their pricing tries to keep pace of the 3rd party dealers who are trying to offload theirs for cheap.Quote:

And for those into licensed kitchen accessories...
Transformers mug - US$12.90
Transformers drinking glasses, set of four - US$20
Transformers tin lunch box (these are very fragile) - US$12
They all ship to Australia, and all have Gen1 Optimus & Bumblebee on them.
Titan Returns Ravage in stock and sold by Amazon
They had Laserbeak too. I'd buy the TRs from Amazon if they weren't charging US$20 for deluxes now. :(

Combiner Wars Victorion is now available for A$95 delivered to Australia.
That's a great price.
Yeah I got it from Amazon at around 130aud delivered a couple of weeks ago.
Currently on sale at Amazon are quite a few Transformers, including the Platinum Edition Optimus Vs Megatron (movie anniversary) set for just US$37 plus US$18 postage to Australia.
Meanwhile, the 2016 "zodiac" Transformer (Year of the Monkey Optimus) is down yet again, for just US$30... from its original price of about US$90-100.
Damn Hasbro, when will you learn that the extremely overpriced Platinum releases will not sell. Especially if they're old redecos.Quote:

And the seller is definitely Amazon, not a third party seller.
I miss the old Amazon America, stocking all the new Transformers toys, so frequently that I could browse the site and make up an order of several toys to save on postage... which used to be dirt cheap (cheaper than posting across Australia).
Now, you'd be lucky to find something something new after a couple of weeks... and maybe a new Generations toy every second month. :(
ditto
Just noting this here as well... the Velocitron set has just popped up on Amazon (sold by Amazon) for US$100 plus US$25 for shipping (for one).
I ordered two (one for me and one for a friend) and it came to AU$338... which is AU$170 each (the same price as in HK without shipping), and 15% less than the price it would be in Australia if ToysRUs ends up selling it here.
This unexpected, as it is supposed to be a TRU exclusive in America like everywhere else, so Amazon shouldn't be able to sell it.
It doesn't get released until June 17th (3 days time), so it will be interesting to see what happens on that date. (at least with Amazon it's not too much to worry about, because if it was a mistaken listing, or it wasn't meant to be available to export, they will refund the money quickly and easily)
Got an alert that Amazon was selling COV set again, but by the time I saw the email (15 minutes after it came in), it was back to only 3rd party sellers selling (for $300US)
*waits*
I got an email this morning to say that my pair had just shipped, so the alert you heard about might have been a couple extras they got in with their shipment... or the Americans watching the listing jumped on it fast.Quote:

Amazon has the Optimus/Orion 2 pack (WBC and TR mounds)
Anyone ordering a few?
im keen if you are.
I see Amazon *Japan* does - is that what you meant?Quote:

2 units is $25AUD to ship, 3 is $32.
Thanks for the link - couldn't find it on Amazon search
A new Rescue Bots "Friends/Minicon" has been listed as well - Silverback the gorilla, a new mould/animal, that looks to pair up with the snow-plough version of Boulder (from the Adventure pack).
The Tribute Evolution Optimus 2pack is back in stock, for US$30 plus postage. Link here...
And the Tribute Movie Leader Optimus is now in stock as well, for US$80 plus postage.Quote:

The Voyagers are US$25 each, and the Legends are US$10 each.
Amazon have TR Sixshot on a big discount of $32.67 + $16.69 shipping. This equals a bit under $65 all together for him, which is a pretty decent price. Not interested but may be tempting for those that still need him.
haha, I literally only pre-ordered him yesterday from elsewhere.Quote:

Just be aware that shipping will make it really expensive, but in case we don't get it here, it could be one option if you can't find it at any other source for less (I haven't looked around, so other places might have it in stock).
And Amazon also restocked Movie Leader Dragonstorm (available to us), and Voyager Nitro (NOT available to us at this time... but might be later if you keep an eye on it).

Studio Series Grimlock for around $85AUD including shipping
A pretty decent price given he'll be around $90 retail when he hits.
The first wave of Studio Series are/were on there last night, but shipping and exchange rate will only save you money if they never go on sale here... which they will eventually, or will have a percentage-off sale at some point at the usual outlets.
If you want to get them now and save a little over full retail here, get them from Amazon... but if you are willing to wait for a cheaper sale price here, don't shop there.
(also, most of wave 2 of POTP has been restocked on Amazon in the last couple of weeks, but some prices are way over US retail from Amazon themselves... like the Legends class - one is $11, but two are $16 each - almost like they are pricing them based on their demand or short-packing)
If anyone is after a TR Shuffler without paying extortionist pricing on ebay, Amazon has him as an "add on item" from $7.50 USD. That means you need to buy $25 worth of other stuff and then you can add him onto your order for $7.50.
I bought him recently and it hardly affected my shipping cost to add him to an order of a HDMI cable and USB hub.

Sigh.
