    Guys,

    Check this out!

    http://www.toysrus.com.my/minifigures-contest.html

    Btw, I heard the price for each fig at TRU is RM12.90

    FYI, the RRP is 9.90. I suppose TRU marked up the price.

    if they increase price by RM2 each and people need to buy them to join the contest, assuming they receive 1000 forms,

    They already earn RM2000, minus the prize about RM500, they still untung a lot...clever marketing ploy..

    Aiya... what is RM2K to Toys 'R' Us? Chicken feedla.

    Even without the contest, the figs would sell. The quantities are SOOOOOOO limited.

    hmm, 12.90 seems ok lah for Malaysian pricing. US was only some 7.50 only. I'd say the first launch RM 10 for series 1 was a really good buy.
