Not sure which TFs but whatever gets passed on, we'll bear the brunt of it being in Australia and all.

wow..let's hope this doesn't affect us here as it's already overpriced!!

[Gutsman Heavy]

awww crap

unless our prices are changed to be in line with the new higher us price, and thus still sh*tloads cheaper. Hey, one can wish...

Looks like we are going to be returning to Movie line prices for scouts and Deluxes at the very least.

Bugger.

OH POOP, this may slow down my collecting, back to Micromen and Micronauts.

They were already clearly cutting on production and QC costs with the appalingly bad quality of the Animated toys and Universe (from what I have heard).

Now they want to raise the costs??? I see this as profiteering under the excuse hard times.

Hasbro and their dodgyness are actually persuading me to become a Takara only fan because they give you more bang for your buck.

Thank God there's still Takara who's always been the "more value for money" product anyway.

This can't be good...
