Transformers is a popular brand in China? Every time I've been there trying to find legit TFs is like finding needles in a haystack. :( But I guess a small minority of a gigantic population probably still outweighs some other markets with relatively higher number of consumers per capita.

They had their own exclusive MMOG too, but it was rather short-lived... then again, at least the Chinese version was finished and released to market. :p

Yep, sold by Amazon. They also have a nasty habit of shipping Star Wars vehicles (and Platinum Predaking) with a shipping label slapped on the product box instead of put in a shipping box.

I'm sure my question has been raised by other members in the past, but I thought I ask anyway. Where is the cheapest place I can get my hands on MP Red Alert (no KO). Some of the prices I've seen are ridiculously high. Please no ebay or online retailers that require international address. Thanks in advance.

You might be outta luck for a good price on MP Red Alert... RobotKingdom or Chimungmung seemed to be good bets when items are on pre-order or early in release, but at this stage...

I would be interested if anyone finds a good source!

Does Amazon require payment upfront when preordering something, or do they charge once they have the item in stock? :o

They charge when they are shipping it out.
