    Masterpiece Grimlock at Morley Toys R us for $150

    Although they're not advertised as such, at Kmart Morley ROTF Scouts are scanning in as $13 instead of the usual $15.

    I just can't justify the 150 for that given it's a full $50 more than the seeker mold, which is more complex.

    I think it's more to do with the fact that he's an electronic figure as well.

    I think he has more diecast parts as well (not too sure but...is it me or is my skywarp/starscream like 95% plastic? i'm not sure which pieces are diecast lol).

    also the takara edition is like 150 and 48 dollars for postage on ebay and iirc...this edition of the figure doesn't come with "waiterbot" (the apron, metal dish with the cups).

    Don't forget RK guys, their price works out considerably cheaper at the moment!

    Remember both MP Prime and Megatron had electronics as well, so i doubt that's entirely the reason for the higher cost of Grimlock.

    MP prime and megatron cost more then any other cos they were huge as well. secondly...megatron won't see the light of day outside of japan unless imported (which i did )

    Also wasn't the hasbro anniversary prime a similar price to grimlocks?

    Yeah!!! Grimlock is in Perth woohoo.

    I've been out of the collecting scene for transformers since the end of the TF2 movie, so haven't been keeping up with the info.

    Is the grimlock takara masterpiece or is it the hasbro equivalent?

    $150 is still a little bit steep.

    Toys R Us is certainly not cheap. I wanted to buy the Buzz Lightyear (Toystory hype and all) but ended up not getting it.

    Robot Kingdom, a store which I think is based in Japan. Its prices usually work out cheaper or about the same as buying in Australia.

    Toys R Us in Cannington has Human Alliance Jazz. That's a new thing, right?

    Didn't see Straxus though.
