This can't be right. I think the person at LA must have swapped a two with a
three somewhere along the line. When I range LA back in February I got a price
list for all of the 2000 Star Wars range. The exchange rate has got worse, but
see http://www.lugnet.com/loc/au/?n=104 for the prices I got.
I've also had confirmation of someone pre-ordering the Falcon from Toyworld in
Victoria for AUD$280. Now we know that Toyworld are on the high side of the
RRP envelope, so my guess is it'll be released for AUD$259.00
If it comes out at AUD$359, someone at LA deserves to get a smack!
