$550 appears steep, but once you take off the tax (which doesn't get applied to stated price in the US), the prices are about $15 USD difference. A 5% markup to accommodate EB's efforts and the benefit of a lower deposit is alright in my book.

I haven't had a chance to look into set yet. Do we know how large the individual bots are? Deluxe? Voyager? Dare I hope old school Ultra?

The boilerplate listings say 5.5 inches, which has got a few people worked up, but the Hasbro staff have said that they are taller (they proclaimed them voyagers, as if that helps with the height these days). And if you look at the size of the (non-partsforming) limbs and compare them to the Aerialbots (which we know are average-height deluxes that come apart in the middle to fit on the Superion frame), you can work out that they are indeed larger. So I would hazard a guess of average, perhaps even slightly above-average, height for a 2025 voyager-price-point toy.

Over 3000 preorders in the first few hours at Hasbro’s China Taobao store, makes me think that China is a HUGE underdeveloped market. Also that a ‘small deposit only’ model makes a lot of sense (Taobao, Zing/EBGames) for crowdfunding models. If Hasbro Pulse offered a financing or installment plan (outsourced) they could likely sell a substantial number more and are leaving money on the table.
On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!
