Nice bit of price gouging by EB/Zing there
Deluxes were $60, then $68 & now $78. These muppets on drugs or just getting greedy now? For the total cost of this thing, I'd much rather buy the TFC Poseidon.

I actually suspect it's more to do with the "trade war" which pushes down currencies like ours. Nonetheless, it's a lot. I've ordered; but am happy there's no more to come. It's an expensive exercise!

Not sure what to say, buying this is now irritating.

They are taking the piss at this point...

I want to support Zing/EB but these are almost the same price as the initial voyager and deluxe.They had such a fantastic price for Unicron so to see this is kinda disappointing but oh well.

Nah the currency hasn't moved that much, it's just blatant profiteering. Will order the last batch offshore just like the 2nd. Supported them on the 1st wave but that was because their price was reasonable compared to offshore sources.

Thanks for the post. They're also on Mighty Ape for $70 each (no deposit though)

Wasn't there some sorta tax price hike going on in Japan?

Regardless I noticed a few figures going up in price at zing compared to other stores, never thought I'd see the day when Melbourne store minotaur was CHEAPER than zing on things, but here we are, I'll just these and then that's it

This is very disappointing, and makes it impossible to choose this local option now.
EB Games was price-gouging us with the second set, as they got them at the same price as the first Deluxe... so I really want to find out who is responsible for this new massive spike.

I really hope that this isn't EB Games taking the attitude that us Transformers fans are willing to pay any price for our toys (after many of us spending up big on Unicron), and are just bumping up the price on each new item. Just like with other retailers, if we stop buying Transformers from them because they made it too expensive, they will just stop ordering them... they won't reduce the price to win us back.
