The mold used for Bluestreak is one of the best Masterpiece figures to date, so don’t hesitate in picking this one up! Use our sightings forums to help out fellow collectors both on TFW and Cybertron.ca! Happy Hunting!

What the heck? How are you guys lucky enough to have YOTH Primes that cheap?

Bluestreak is NOT a SDCC exclusive. It's just bein sold there before it hits tru. Now, Devastator is an exclusive cuz he won't be available at tru in the sdcc deco.

The YOTH version of Prime is only $10 more. I am sure we will see at least 25% price drop on BS.

I got a Prowl on sale for $50. and the weird part is that the last time I was at my local TRU, they had a lot more and still on sale for $50.

What irks me how a lot of sellers claiming to be US sellers. They're pushing their KO's through really hard.

Online/SDCC exclusive for the US market.
Other markets are unaffected.

Well, so much about it being an online exclusive only. Glad to hear it.
Unfortunately even if the Takara version costs 60$ so it's less than 90 CAD (=72 USD) I don't dare to buy the Takara toys from ebay, there is virtually no way to tell from the auction photos whether you are getting the real thing or a Knockoff.
MrFX
Agreed.
Like many others, I have the TT mold, so this waaay overpriced. As much as I love to have Hasbro versions of the MPs, this is a terrible deal. I'm going to wait for a discount before I even CONSIDER picking this one up.

There's no notable connection between the releases.

Any chance this means Titan Class Devastator will be out in Canada pretty soon?
Atomatron
many bad decisions re: tru exclusives this year, its like they want them to fail so they dont have to do them anymore. with the excuse, 'see! they dont sell"

I Have been enjoying the Takara version for a year. Better box same price it seems.
For me this news just lets me know of another item on some other toys r us shelf that my store won't ever have
Bountyan
Overpriced and I already have the mold. Unless there's some crazy 60%+ off sale I'm not going to bother.
BigWillay
he's gonna be a shelf warmer, will grab him on clearance while I grab the YOTG soundwave at the sametime

Does this mean online orders will ship.?

Eh, I've already go this release TWO years ago. All for the 'reasonable' price of $45.
For this terrible pricing, I could have bought 2 MP- Bluestreaks!

Glad I got my TT version!

Price seems a little high. I always get the Takara versions but I rarely expect them to be a better price.

Oh come on, they have to pay someone to take all the police light bars off the roof!
