does anybody have any kind of guess at what the Titans Returns toys will sell for in traditional stores such as Kmart, Targer, Big W etc.
Particularly:
Titan Galvatron, Blaster, Astrotrain
The two waves of Headmasters that include the bat dude, wolf, guy, the generic robot dudes (sorry, I forget their names)
The reason I ask is that online preorders are up on various sites, but the prices are all over the place. For example I've seen Titan Headmaster Blaster for $55 preorder and $100 AU preorder.
That's just nutty variance in price.
Any clue what these specific toys will sell for at normal retail brick and mortar stores?
Yes I've read the generic price thing on this site, but it doesn't really help in this case.
Just a broad guess, but most likely similar to current Deluxe, Voyager and Leader RRP prices: Deluxe $30, Voyager $50, and Leader $100
Most of those characters are quite unique (at least the monsters), so I doubt there will be very much repainting opportunity for Hasbro. Given that repainting opportunities are low, they should be trying to generate the most revenue by selling at great volumes. I see the chance of getting all of them at sale prices (20-25% off) to be quite good, though I'd most likely go for Takara's releases pending reviews of differences in quality to justify the additional cost.
Cockburn WA or elsewhere?
And thanks Suspectimus. I'm gonna wait for retail releases, as I don't want to pay outrageous prices for them.
and now that I've finished buying my CW figures, and ordered Titan Max today, I can sit back and wait for these considerably cheaper toys.
I really only want Astro, Galvatron, Bat-bot-man (mindwipe) and the other two animal themed headmasters that are based on the G1 toys that sell for too much.
Yeah WA.
