With the whole BOA vs BOJ debate, I think it just boils down to "you get what you paid for". While BOA are definitely not as great quality wise, you pretty much are paying a quarter of what you pay for BOJ stuff after shipping. Especially as PR stuff is always on sale at TRU.

At these prices you could easily get one and a number of the cheap BOJ keys packs which sell for mere dollars.

I get that. But by the time you pay $80 for this set you could have easily gotten the better toy in the Mobirate for about the same price or less and picked up extra keys. The price vs quality thing doesn't pan out in this case. That's all I'm trying to say.

For people who want to collect teh BOA keys, more power to them. But it saddens me they have to buy a bunch of duplicates and another morpher just to do that.
