Down here the entire line is expensive - $60AU for the Steel Crusher, with the figures at $18AU each. That works out to around $48US and $14US respectively. Ouch.

I refuse to pay anything for the movie merchandise.

Let's see.

Figures are $9.99, about $8.60 US
Alpha vehicles are $24.99, about $21.50 US
While I haven't seen them myself, Bravo vehicles are supposedly $34.99, about $30.10 US.

Figures I don't mind so much, but the vehicle price is ridiculous when I can still get a HISS for $19.99...

DITTO!



While figures have some cool looking gear I'm pretty through new sculpt stuff. The vehicles seem to be gearing back to the GVC/Spytroops giant missle launcher crap. The gunship looks prettyy cool, but as Craig pointed out in his pic it's in dire need of a rotar or something. I think the Pit and the Night Raven both look pretty terrible. If I see anything useful I'll just wait for Target's clearance at the end of the season.

In Waco, Texas, the average price at either Target or TRU comes to about $8, the same for SW and a bit less than the Marvel Universe figures. So I can't complain.

The vehicles I've only found at TRU which are the same prices mentioned above.

$16.99 I found too much at the moment to rush to buy the small vehicles. $24.99 for the Steel Crusher and that Cobra Gunship is a bit more acceptable, but only for one, not to buy a small collection of them. Instead of $25 for these, I rather buy a Stinger or another HISS for less. The Night Raven was there, but they had many so I'll wait until next payday. Not going to get The Pit.

The thing is, ROC merchandise are going to be around and available. The older stuff -- Stingers, HISS's, etc -- are going to be sold less and less as inventories clear out. So I rather get the older vehicles for now, and they cost less.

BTW, does anyone know when Walmart is supposed to stock their shelves with ROC?

I've picked up all I'm going to from the movie line, but I appreciate the offer. Thanks man!
