JP MP Starsaber & US MP Bluestreak out here in April

Hey guys. Any news on when star Saber should be out?

See post #1... second sentence.

I was at TRU Parramatta yesterday and I asked for the SKNs for MP Star Sabre and Bluestreak. They had nothing in their system about Star Sabre (chillax, I did ask them for Star S-a-b-e-r -- only results for light sabres came up ), but I did at least get the SKN for Bluestreak (95764).

Product pages are up online, for Pre-order....

Hasbro Bluestreak $129.99

Takara Starsaber $299.99

$130 for Bluestreak?! When Prowl is still shelf warming at $100?!!

I think the Datsuns would sell a lot better if they came with the extra missiles. The built in missiles are a bit naff.

The release dates are a bit late, considering they were supposed to be out later this month. Maybe TRU are sitting on the stock for a little while to clear out more of the existing $300 & Autobot Car Masterpiece toys (Ultra Magnus & Prowl).

Bluestreak is listed as Early June, while Star Saber is listed as late May.

At least we have clear photos of the Bluestreak box, which is a world first.

The pics were there when I first sighted the pages, but the release dates were added in later... just so you know...

Out of their minds.

You would have bought the diaclone version for this price.
Pretty disappointing price for a car mp

While I understand TRUs reasons for charging more for Bluestreak, I just can't justify over $100, even as an impulse buy.

Have they got a 25% off sale coming up? This would drop the price to just below $100 (similar to Prowl's list price).
