Seems like the minis are a lot more popular in Australia and Japan than they are in the US, which probably makes a big difference in pricing.
The M05v.2 is not quite available in the States yet, hence why you can't find them yet. If you have some patience, they'll hit the shelves soon, so look into pre-ordering one at local or online hobby stores.
