Robot Kingdom have posted the following statement on their Facebook page:

Bad news from hasbro.
We have informed by hasbro today that they suddenly increase the cost of all FOC upcoming items without warning, and include the items we have been preordering for a while... Heavy lost from most of those orders.
We temporary put sold out for some of those FOC items, and will update the final price later.

Robotkingdom Crew

Can we expect retail prices for these figures to go up (again) in the near future?
