    Default Amazon UK - Hasbro MP-10 Optimus to Australia for about AU$75

    And this probably wouldn't even be of much interest except that it is allowing me to order it to be shipped to Australia. Like with the Unicron last year (? Year before?) it is quite cheap at ~£35 and standard shipping to Oz is ~£20. with exchange rates that puts the price at ~$75 Australian shipped! If I didn't already have one I would have ordered it, but for those that missed out here it could be a good opportunity.

    The only drawback that I could see is that it won't ship until Jan 28th which effectively makes this a preorder, but at that price I'm even tempted to pick up a spare!

    Well I've jumped in. Have been tossing up about grabbing the TRU version for a while. All my MPs are the Japenese releases, but the MP10 version is just too pricey and I felt dirty getting the TRU version. But this offer is too good to pass up.

    I note that Australia is not on the destination list for Toys and Games so I'm half expecting an email cancelling my order saying there was an error with the system.

    Also worth noting is that my actual confirmed order the item is only £29.16 not £34.99 as listed.

    If it's being sent overseas then I guess you don't have to pay VAT on it (UK equivalent of GST).

    Seems to be the case. The difference is 20% which looks like it is the rate of the VAT on most goods.

    Wow. How long do you reckon until you find out if it will ship here? I still haven't opened mine so if it works I might return it to TRU and order an Amazon one.

    I might do this if my source fails to get it in.

    Hmm, that seems like a good deal. I'm going to order a couple. BTW, how much was he at retail in Oz? (I never found him at TRU).
