I'm finding it so interesting how much is reused.
Seawing for example has Cutthroat's beast legs.
Jawbreaker has Rippersnapper's upper beast legs but I hadn't twigged they were new lower beast lesg with a hole in the foot, presumable Weaponiser compatible.

Interesting. I was vaguely hoping these would be a nice boxed set.

The pair TTMall are offering is just the individuals together, ala their Abominus set.

BBTS sent out an email yesterday saying they were up, but linked to two dead pages.

Yeah, the thought is they put them out a day early, got a telling off and pulled them.

Hasbro Pulse has them up. But my address is changing by the end of the month, my father is being a dick and not giving me the new one, and it takes an act of god to change a wrong address on a pulse preorder.
I am very anxious.

Gosh that's expensive. £33 for a deluxe. Yikes. I wasn't thinking of getting them at all, but I know they're popular, so, yikes you guys. |

Wait a minute. What has been the price of other Select deluxes?

It's kind of in line with the Robot Kingdom dollar prices, in the usual straight $/£ conversion. £50 for a Voyager is certainly on the expensive side, especially when the Hasbro Select equivalents have been around the mid 30s.
However you've also got to remember that today the exchange rate is 128 yen to a pound, six months ago it was 155 and pre-Brexit it was almost 200 at one point.
Edit - Yeah, if you run those numbers - the retail price for Turtler is 6500 yen, which today is £50.61. Six months ago it was £41.93. Back in 2015 that would have been £33.67

I hear on RFC that the pre-order window for these first two Seacons closes at the end of August for both TTMall and Pulse. I wonder how that affects resellers like Kapow offering them up to customers.

Yep, that's a little too rich for my blood. Although, yes, we do indeed need to be getting used to these prices as the pound continues to plummet ever further in this glorious era of Brexit. Blitz spirit, everyone! There'll be disaster capitalists looming over, the crumbling cliffs of Dover...

Getting better. Being ID, these will sell out quickly. I wonder what Kapow will do.

Full price option has gone out of stock for both figures!
Deposit option still there. I wonder if they're thinking they put them up too cheap.
