    So thats the reason for the new ultra pricing... so they can say that you "save more" when sales time comes around.

    $30 as a "Hot Price" for deluxes is shambolic!

    Remember that Hot Price means normal price.

    Amazing, even with a save of $20 Countdown and Darkwing are still insanely over priced.

    Too bad about their free Voyager offer since there is nothing there aside from Darkwind and maybe Countdown that I would want.

    However I have to keep in mind that I could be a little unrealistic in what I want to pay for Darkwing - I love the character tribute in the repaint but the mold is a disgrace at the Ultra level and would not want to pay much.

    Never thought I'd see TRU sell TFA Leaders for $40!

    Looks like I'll be paying my local TRU a vist tomorrow to pick up TFA Leader Megs.

    I am aware of that, but that was my point, there is no way in hell that $30 for a deluxe is a "hot price"

    Hey SGB, I saw it too... Bloody good looking catalogue! They Bumblebee Helmet and Weapons were cheap at $49.99... They've done a great job on it... I was stoked as I'm a new collector and the spend $100 and get a Universe Voyager Free is an awesome offer for someone who's new to this...

    I thought the pricing was basically on par. I went to a few other Retailers and other than a couple of items, TRU, Big W, Target and K-Mart were all around the same.. I'm sure there will be more sales prices coming from all when movie time comes around...

    I found it funny going into Target today and Universe deluxes are set at $28.99 retail, while Universe voyagers are $24.99 retail. I thought when I picked up Inferno a few weeks ago for that cheap they must have just had a screw-up. Obviously not.
