$50. seems to be the regular price this year for Robosapien. Someone had it on Black Friday sale for $30 or $40. Probably the best deal you would have found.

Yeah, it would figure because my son didn't tell us thats what he wanted until AFTER black friday. Now all the TRU's are out of stock and who knows what price they'll be when they do get them back in, if they do at all.

Keep checking Woot everyday for RoboRaptor. We got the Platinum edition from them for I think $40 a week or so ago. He was a birthday gift for DS and I love it.

Thanks to wikipedia for this lovely definition:

Woot is an Internet commerce company based in the Dallas suburb of Carrollton, Texas, which operates a website of the same name. The site debuted on July 12, 2004. Founded by electronics wholesaler Matt Rutledge, Woot offers a new discounted product every day with the product "expiring" each night at midnight. Woot’s novel, irreverent approach quickly attracted a robust community of customers, who share their opinions on the site’s community forums. Product selections tend to emphasize (but are not limited to) computer components and electronic gadgetry, all sold at closeout prices.

Woot takes its name from the widely-used online interjection “w00t!” Each product sold is referred to as the "woot."

I just saw Robosapian at LNT today. I didn't get to check the price... it was just beyond the checkouts and by the time I checked out, I had forgotten about it. They've been sending out 20% off one item coupons in the mail so maybe this will make the price better. HTH.
