WRC Transformer

FYI. While shopping with the family today, saw the WRC Transformer (Makinen version) toy at Collector Maniacs in Kaimuki. It was going for about sixty bucks. Also saw the American market version at GameStop in Ala Moana going for thirty bucks. The import version is much nicer though. American version looks more toy-like (blue plastic) while the import version seems to be painted (deeper and shinier blue). So it's a toss-up...price vs. quality.

If the import one is diecast metal I'd get that one.. that's the ones the other i-clubbers and I got.. If you're a collector it's definately worth the extra doe!... Also the diecast ones are only for a limited time and when the american versions make there release then they'll be all CHEAP plastic

Just an FYI, when I was on Toys and Joys II in Pearlridge I noticed they had the imported one for $39.99 (on sale). It was the Tommi Makinen version.
