Ohohoho, YES. This is amazing. Has me all super excited for the MP line again. I hope all those accessories are included, aside from the minions. And I hope when the minions come out they cost less than Sideswipe. I NEED RAVAGE.

lol, I think it's just a silly excuse for "Oh crap these things cost more than we expected, we can't afford to sell them for such a low price".

But it's an okay price for a figure I'm going to really, really love. So perhaps I will make this happen after all. Also, it's a good thing I'm not interested in many 3rd Party offerings this year beyond Green Giant. It's time for official toys to take the spotlight.

I think I'll pass on Red Alert (since I actually have his Generations fig) and go for MP Sideswipe and the inevitable Sunstreaker. I love Lamborghini's, so Sideswipe is a no-brainer.
I don't see that. MP10 stands the same size as Rodimus, which is barely an inch taller than Hot Rod himself. Based on the size comparison picture between Sideswipe only comes to his waist. Sideswipe should be just as tall as Hot Rod. Sideswipe looks like a mini-spy.
Unfortunately new new MP scale has completely screwed early MP collectors out of having a consistent and accurate series collection.
Well, unfortunately they're also going for alt-mode scale, which makes it hard to have consistency in bot modes. It makes perfect sense that Hot Rod and Sideswipe
should be the same height it bot mode, but since Hot Rod was also designed to be Rodimus Prime and making Sideswipe any bigger would make a
huge Lamborghini, it's the best they can do. Inconsistencies in scale are just something we have to live with as Transformers fans. Especially considering the sizes of characters in the cartoon varied from episode to episode and sometimes even scene to scene...and then there's the whole mass-shifting issue and, well...yeah.
