I agree. I have all of them except the optimus prime and megatron. The thing is those 2 are so hard to find. Amazon has them for 40$(op) 20$(m). When at target they are 10 bucks each. But I need them, so I will be stuck paying that price for them.

Seriously. I've also noticed that a while back too and so my money is mainly being spent elsewhere. These guys are RIPPOFFS. IT'S SUPPOSE TO BE CHEAPER HERE NOT MORE EXPENSIVE!!!

Because it's sold by a third party and fulfilled by Amazon. People will try to charge to much because it is demand. I suggest waiting because eventually they will get more in stock at the lower price. I would say check other retailers also.

Most items sold on Amazon have a 30 day return policy. I am curious as to why you think the transformer might be blown as it is built into the unit. One of the units I got had a dead remote battery so it wouldn't turn on the light. I used a new battery and the light turned on. Maybe try that?

Actually, this is not sold by Amazon.com. If you read carefully you should notice this: "Availability: In Stock. Ships from and sold by ToyWiz." Remember that when you shop at Amazon, you could being shopping in another store. Price differences is the reason why I never shop from another Amazon store rather than Amazon.com Several weeks ago, Amazon had it in stock and sold it by $39.99.

amazon makes more money from the seller fees for overpriced elmos, then they would selling the item themselves.so it is smart for them to wait and build up there inventory while everyone else depletes theirs.I also canceled my preorder, and got one from target. my 13 month old kid broke it in under 2 minutes. gladly target let me exchange it for the last one at the store.

So far, I've only seen 3, X-men, Ben 10, and IWF( Ineregalactic Wresting Federation). They are sold at Wal-mart. The thing that bothers me is that to purchase a second remote cost $20 and since it's a brand new system, I haven't seen any off brand remotes.

Yes, Amazon has had several waves of this figure already and will have more. They also sell it at 19.99, so there is no need to pay a higher price.

Well from my experience I caved and settled for $90, but $150 is way too much. I'd recommend looking all over the Internet for one that's a decent price if you can't then this is probably the cheapest you're gonna get it for. Try this link http://furechan.bigcartel.com/product/max-factory-figma-pit found it hidden in Google, hope this helps!

Even as a resale, that's a ridiculous price. You can order them online at Hot topic too. These sellers are awful I'm putting them on my blacklist.

I don't know what Amazon is doing but all the toys I had in my shopping cart priced $15-$20 are now over $100 overnight. What are they doing? Trying to lose customers I think! I'm done with Amazon.

Hello Rob,We just this item on the Amazon UK website. Let me know if the price is correct?? We do have to pay a VAT and shipping so there are some additional charges, but if things seem out of the normal. Please let me know.Thanks,Square Jellyfish

We actually ordered it through the Lego store and reviewed it on Amazon. The Lego store offered a better price. It arrived packaged in another box that was much bigger.

hi becca - i know my price has been the same on the amazon -i am an individual seller on amazon - i don't know why amazon changes their prices so frequently unless it's one of their lightning deals - as for the difference in price, it's up to the manufacturer --my assumption would be that some may consider this toy as a "girl" toy and sell more quickly than the blue one - i assume amazon has alot more stock on the blue one in their inventory - i hope this helped - thank you for asking and have a nice holiday season

There are two Hapes, one at $98 and one at $117 but the more expensive one has an extra vehicle. It may be that the $130 toy is sold by a different company.

Many people (myself included) don't consider them "toys"-they're collectibles and we'll pay A LOT for one-I own a set comprised of a Takara Tomy Striker ASP-01 and aftermarket trailer/weapons ring as well as other mods that I paid a total of nearly $400 for. And $71 is nothing-this figure now goes for well above that here 6 years later-like I said, many don't look at the Leader class as a toy.

i agree with Michael. It is for adults and very much go up in price. They are collectibles and not everyday action figures. If you go to other Hot Toys resell sites you will see how quickly the price goes up. I bought this as a Christmas gift and it has gone up $100 in selling price. It is highly detailed and if you go to YouTube, you can see reviews of various Hot Toys items that are out of box and shows all the detail of the item
