Well in 1988-ish they were $10, now they're ~2.5x the cost. I estimate in 20 years time, yes, $50 deluxes, but with engineering/electronic gimmicks out the wahzoo, and just a couple of crude brush strokes of paint to represent some colour. :D

How much were the Armada/Energon/Cybertron deluxes? Can't seem to remember!

Well cybertron was roughly:

Scout $14
Deluxe $23
Voyager $35-45
Ultra $45-55
Leader $65-80
Supreme $100-120

With the lower prices at Big W and Kmart, and the higher ones at Toyworld...now Toyworld is about the same as Kmart. :rolleyes:

Just saw the Universe G1 Optimus Prime at kmart for what seems to be the standard price of $39.
