Wait... They retail at 22$+tx?!
Aw, come the fok on, TrU!
I'm starting to see RID Warrior class and CW Deluxe class going for $19.99 usd at a few TRUs I visit while on the road. That's a little ouchy in my book.

There is a big difference:
Warriors at Canadian retail are 19.99 = 15.70 $ US
Your 19.99$ = 25.45$ cdn. 1$ canadian in canada will still get you as far as 1$ US in the states, but I just wanted to show how that price increase in the states is far worse than the prices we see at canadian retail. I think that extra 2$, Kanrabat, is due to the exchange which has only worsened.

Those size classes still run $15-16 at Walmarts and Targets. I think its just a TRU thing here. I got sticker shock when I pulled one off the shelf and then saw the tag. My singed little fingers put it right back where I found it too.william-james88 wrote:carytheone wrote:-Kanrabat- wrote:william-james88 wrote:-Kanrabat- wrote:Might buy that Optimus for my "Keep sealed on card" collection.

Totally agree with you. Any news on a price yet?
Oh yeah, its Takara leader price. Everyting is in the Takara TAV thread. Sadly, the toy is already sold out from the japanese importer.
Sadface. That's okay. I don't need another Optimus Prime. I could do with a modern update of God Ginrai, but as far as Optimus is concerned, my Robot Masters Convoy is my absolute favourite G1 Prime.
What about MP 10? Anyway,There is a remold of this TAV op.

I'm totally ignorant of this stuff, but a random thought (based on nothing) is that hasbro wants to drive up profits so it can say that every sales quarter was better than the last by this much %. You can only go so far by selling product, before inflation has to occur so that the company doesn't have to say that they only broke even, or had a marginal dip in sales; that would probably be bad for their stock market (but I don't know, this is just a logical guess)

Replace "Hasbro" with "Toy Stores", and you're dead on. It's the stores themselves that determine prices depending on competition (Toys "R" Us is notorious for their high prices), why do you think we have "MSRP", or Mean (meaning "average"), Suggested, Retail Price? Some stores have higher, some lower.
Hasbro is the main supplier of stock, thus earns its money (and determines overall sales reports) from the stores ordering, while the stores earn their money from us buying that stock.

I thought the msrp for the cw figures was $17? I know that means hts is undercutting their own msrp if that is the case, but still...

You're the only person I've ever heard call it that. It's the manufacturer suggested retail price. Mean doesn't make sense since there are far more stores selling at or above MSRP than below it and the MSRP would be changing constantly. It's the price that the manufacturer believes a retailer can sell at to still turn a good profit, that's what makes the greed of TRU all the more infuriating.

Huh, is that so? Ok, I was wrong for once, but the point of the stores alone determining their prices still stands.

And that's not including the single tax Alberta has until they elect that prick Justin Trudeau for Prime Minister which would be a nightmare.
I remember back around the ROTF line where Deluxes were only around $15.00.
The Age of Extinction deluxes or more accurately the Hotshots ans Snarls are $10.00 at Walmart so there is some good news.
Voyagers are also $35.00

Doubt it, it looks to rotate forward to about 90 degrees, so I think it just rests there; I will be getting the incredible legends class version, but continue to demand a satisfactorily poseable deluxe version.

What is very interesting about this release is that this is the very first Thunderhoof figure where his antlers in robot mode actually become the rake in vehicle mode as the original design and animation model intended. This gives me hope that the upcoming Warrior Class will also go this route. Images of the previous versions are available below for comparisons.

Rated X wrote:Three dumbed down kiddie figures but no standard deluxe figure yet for the character ? RID has been a total failure. The only decepticon to get a serious figure was steeljaw. All the rest have been legends, one steppers, three steppers, shampoo bottles, etc.
I gotta agree with this on the whole, piss and moan all you want about these 'being for kids', but it is kind of insulting, not to mention redundant to get almost every figure in both a 1-step and a 3-step, etc. Legends class Underbite and fixit were really nice (that does not mean that I don't still want a deluxe/voyager Underbite), so I'll discount legends from this; but as far as 'aimed at kids' lines go, the foreign simplified line has these beat by miles

That would be nice, after the trouble they went through to make each one a unique, colorful and memorable character, the least they could do would be to release them in a size class that isn't garbage (legion class still excluded) I mean, it's not like Prime, where they had a limited number of characters from the show, the first season of rid'15 had a new decepticon in almost every episode, and they were so interesting, and memorable (I stress this, because people buy what is either cool, or characters they know/remember and like)

Woah, really nice that the rake become the antlers without fake ones. However, these fake arms-windows would have been forgivable if they werent starring in your face so obviously in vehicle mode. Close, but no buy.
Also, I usually frown at the Rated X type complains about "waaaah toys for kids!". However, I find this very disapointing and baffling that such a series with so many amazing only have ONE of them in the "serious" warrior class. Come on Hasbro. Everyone, including kids, love the bad guys too. What all tose will do without any to fight? Sit in a corner and fap?

don't forget this is an official image, so it's likely they mistransformed it and those windows have a more reasonable place to be to blend in... in other news, Hasbro needs new photographers if they can't even transform a three step figure correctly.

I find fake rake worse than fake windows for this particular toy. I find a Fake rake undermines the creativity of the character's design.
