Great news, now how about The Netherlands? Barely any product on the shelves and what is there is months old and overpriced. Same goes for Star Wars, where are those vintage figures? Lazy Hasbro gits /endrant

Don't you know by now Europe never gets the same treatment as the US? We only get the first half of the basics, that's it. If anything, try Germany or the UK, I heard they had MP Rodimus Prime on their shelves (the UK is still drowning in them I believe).
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Yup, MP Rodi costs 50 euros over here (Germany that is) But thing is the stuff over here is also pretty old, like first half of DOTM old. But I did see some Prime Cyberverse just recently.

Still got MP Roddy round my way too.

I'll have to get on to TRU-UK and see what they know....

This is pleasing news. $250 for Takara's or $150 for Hasbro's. I dont own MP10 as of yet, so I will wait for a comparison review and decide then.

I've been waiting for this figure to drop in price and if Takara's isnt $100 dollars better, then this is a definite buy for me.
WANTED TO BUY

C-125:Shoki, C126:Getsui, C127:Yukikaze, C129:Seizan. MIB + unused stickers PM for details.

yay TRU... :HEADHURTS:



Maybe... I remember walking into a few toys r us' down here in Oz and seeing quite a few MP TRU exclusive Grimlock's staring back at me, same with Ghost MP Starscream. Admittedly they wanted something ridiculous for him when he was first released, now he's down to $100 and still sitting there. Same with Rodi... $60 and still warming the shelves, probably waiting to hand the matrix back to prime when he comes in ;)

nah, while it's nice that this will work out cheaper than importing from Takara (as I normally do with MP's) i'll still believe the price (and availability) when I actually see it in my closest TRU.
