It should be the same as US prices or lower

It should be the same as US prices or lower yup, i agree zman. transformers are expensive here mostly because of the demand. marvel legends toys are the most popular toys here. the distributor company that imports the hasbro and toybiz brand toys, namely "playkit" company, concentrates more on the marvel toys rather than the transformers hasbro brands. they are more expensive because of the limited quantity they are importing. so the transformers toys are more expensive here compared to the US prices. i think the law of supply and demand applies to this. this is also the reason some secondary toy market who imports these toys from china, can compete with the local distributor of hasbro brands in terms of prices. ;D

Managed to pick up Leader Prime + Voyager Starscream down at Target today. Movie Prime has got to be one of the best Prime incarnation ever, and for once the alternate mode doesn't need a trailer to make it look good. Kinda disappointed by Starscream, but it's starting to grow on me.
Gonna head down tomorrow for a second trip to pick up Ironhide and hopefully Blackout.

Its the fast action battler optimus prime. Its the same as the US version except for the packaging. Its called basic optimus prime here in tokyo.

Someone posted this story on tfw. I know there are some G1 purists, but seeing G1 starscream next to movie starscream. I have to vote for movie starscream. I think the design is great. So its not G1. I don't care. I think it is a better looking toy though. www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=137167

Hehe, awesome Josh! Wreckage looks really cool. Well, I'm moving at a very slow pace getting the toys and stuff, but the other day I got the Optimus voice changer helmet (Peter Cullen version ;D) and Optimash Prime. I LOVE that Potato Head!!! Seriously folks, I've never loved a toy recommended for kids 2 and up as much in my life. Long live Optimash Prime!
