I was waiting for a perfect Megatron 2.0, Takaratomy made it.
It looks just like Megatron in Sunbow The Transformers G1 cartoon.
It comes so to see with all the accessories of the famous Megatron/Optimus Prime battles in the Sunbow The Transformers G1 cartoon/movie. I hope they including his hand circle saw blade from the Sunbow The Transformers G1 Season 1 cartoon.
Now an MP-10 3.0 Optimus Prime where the waist/upperlegs colors are white, the symbols on the waist are medium yellow not translucent, the lower legs are total blue and the Wheels fold inside the lower legs, full hand articulation, led Light in his eyes/chesl to Light up matrix.
Now an MP-22 Ultra Magnus 2.0 where the waist can swivel, and the was flap can be fold on his back of the torso, full hand articulation.
Now an MP-27 Ironhide/MP-30 Ratchet 2.0 where the back wheels fold in the waist with an foldable plate over it, full hand articulation.
Now an MP-21 Bumblebee 2.0 where the underarms have an foldable plate to cover the hole in it, full hand articulation.
Now an MP-15 Rumble/MP-16 Frenzy with full hand articulation.
I known you Takaratomy engineers can do this, now do so.

I love how all the latest MP figures look like they fell out of an episode from the cartoon

This is the Megatron I been waiting for! I picked up Apollyon last year but when Maketoys announced their awesome version, as well as DX9 had a great likeness too, I said nah I think I'll hold to see if TakaraTomy actually comes through. Especially considering I've been with Masterpiece since MP-01 Convoy and I DID miss out on MP-05 (as well as MP-11 being 2 of the 3 masterpiece molds I missed out on so I preordered both of them instantly)

So, for me, $230 is too much. $170? Maybe, but I would reaaaaaaaaaally have to convince myself I needed him more than my Apollyon or one of the others available. I'm aware he's the official, but the line is blurring for me in my old age.

I fully support that purchase Bumblebee21. $130 is easier than $230 all day erryday. I guess I'm in the minority but I've set a limit per figure for myself to $200, and the closest I've been is SDCC Fort Max at $190 shipped. I actually try to stay $150 or less, MP22 was $170 shipped when I got him.Bumblebee21 wrote:im getting mightron

It's actually starting to decline once again. It's already back down to $1USD = 106.84JPY and continues to slip. Doesn't mean it wont rebound, we saw that back in July, though that was a sharp jump and this one has been more gradual. Still not as nice as this time last year when it was 123JPY.

This is becoming an easier pass the more pictures we see. Takara has defiantly lost the title for best MP maker.

Maaaaan, it's looking so gooooood! Just wish it wasn't $200+. $150 would've been on point!

Oh come on, this is totally not what it's really gonna cost - unless they're factoring the labor to put in the plugs - this would be, like, the 4th time (at least) in recent releases where they inflate the prices to move 3rd party stock, because they know that once the mp hits, almost no one is going to want the 3rd party figures. They did it with Grapple (I believe), Inferno, and Shockwave, and maybe others too, I bet the price will go down a bit before he comes out.

UM can't be done unless a new mold for his die-cast torso. As for Rumble/frenzy.the fists are too small, same with the other suggestions.......not practical.

I agree with you, but I don't think they've lost the title as they are the originators of the line AND the intellectual property. Have the 3rd Party figures really become less complicated enough (re: excessive tabs/locking parts) to take over the title? If I'm basing it on my lone experience with Apollyon, no. When I get Hanzo I'll chime in furtherIronhidensh wrote:This is becoming an easier pass the more pictures we see. Takara has defiantly lost the title for best MP maker.
