How much is it in the US?
That's about the same as TakaraTOMY's already expensive RRP for MP Prowl.
TakTOM's full price is 6090JPY (64AUD/59USD)
Recently even the AU prices for MPs has been substantially cheaper than TakaraTOMY's. Now it seems that Hasbro USA have gone and matched TakTOM's prices, with the AU price exceeding even that. Up till now, the AU price for recent MPs has been, on average, 1.6 times cheaper than TakTOM's full RRPs. The AU RRP for MP Prowl appears to be swinging in the opposite direction, being approx. 1.5 times dearer than TakTOM's RRP.
I definately wasn't ready for that price for MP Prowl. It seems like quite a markup just for a bigger box. :/
Ur you still can get this under if you act now plus you get two launchers. In fact, isn't a few of our members selling theirs?
To be honest, you can grab the Takara version with launchers if lucky still under $100.
But I can foresee some who just love the box.
some of our members who are selling without launchers:
Dangermot is still selling:
x1 MP-17 Prowl $75 still available
panterali is also selling
MISB MP17 Prowl $60
So I do not see anyone should say I missed out as these are very reasonable.
I've paid about $85 AUD delivered for all my MP cars as I've been buying well after release so to me the $100 doesn't look that bad considering all mine have been ordered without the coins or launchers etc. However I can see that when you compare it to $100 for the Seekers, $140 for MP10 Prime or $150 for MP02 Soundwave and Cassettes it does seem expensive, although I paid $200 AUD delivered for MP11 Starscream... Now that is pricey... He has sold for some good prices in the for sale section on here too.
I think it's not so good considering that you're comparing the appreciated aftermarket price that you paid for your MP cars versus what is going to be the current market price for MP Prowl at Toys R Us. It's almost as if TRU are telling us, "We've gone ahead and inflated the price for you - you can buy this toy at tomorrow's prices today!" :/
