The worldwide retail sweep of Join The Buzz continues, as TFW2005 member platium reports the arrival of Bumblebee movie toys to Singapore’s Vivo City Toys R Us.
This news follows similar recent sightings at Canadian, U.S. and U.K. retail. Besides Power Charge and DJ Bumblebee, various Energon Igniters and the Stinger Blaster are also available for purchase.
Excellent recon from and for our fellow Transformers fans in Singapore! See the photos attached to this post and remember to share your sightings news on the 2005 boards!

Not much Transformers, there is a large group of Magneous, three TFA Primes and one Thundertron. Some Blokees kits too. No other Transformers figures, sadly, except for a shitton of knockoffs including an oversized Beast Hunters Voyager Prime.

On another note: I know many like me grew up on PM OP so MPG-09 is also an instant pickup for me.
Prices are a little high though.

Not really a popular one. But if you missed out on previous Ratchet, this should make up for it. I loved Ratchet since his Nissan van days so this is an instant pick up for me.

You can use Star Saber or Deathsaurus box dimensions as a guage +/- 5cm on each side you should get a more accurate estimate.

The 400 threshold remains unless the company you ordered from is registered with GST.
Unless Hasbro US is registered with GST you wont be tax.

GST is levied on all imports, the $400 threshold has been removed for a while.

GST applies if your order exceed SGD400.
We are paying 100 more than the US and 50 more than Malaysia for god knows what.

Just curious, there will be GST on the inbound package sent this way too right?

Pulse Singapore = $429 + $69 (shipping) = $498
Pulse USA = USD $250 + free shipping + ezbuy shipping (5kg) = ~$390 or less. I don't think it weight 5kg.
FYI I just backed on Pulse USA.
