What I wish to know is when they will reissue the pussy-cat because Cheetor is sold out everywhere!

Holy.........................

That, actually says a lot, so if primal is $130, and is the size of megs' right arm...

Man, megs is gonna be massive, he can probably fit legends class figures in his mouth in beast mode, man, Cobo is gonna have a field day with his camera

[fenrir72]

The pinch hitter is the TOOTHBRUSH! SOLD! (Though why/where would Cybertronians need/find a toothbrush ( and where would they get one during the Paleolithic era )

I'm super looking forward to pictures of him munching on legends sized fools. He could probably eat the face (and head) off a deluxe or voyager TR guy too!

[Cobotron]

Cobo is gonna have a field day with his camera

Maybe. All depends on if I finally decide to get him.

[Blitzwing is bae]

HOLY **** HES BIG!!!!! and that new gun is lit.

[First-Aid]

So is his price tag! $300+??? OUCH!

Cobs, I don’t wanna tell you how to live your life, but you should get him.

I thought about starting this with him again, seeing as how this is how MP-32 went for a while, but I know he's just gonna wait and get the eventual release that has the mutant mask and some medieval skull weapon or something.

I need to get MP-32 now. I think this seals my MP-36+ pre-order cancellation

You guys! So I just spent the last half hour cataloging all my pending pre-orders that include some big ticket items. Like toy ver. MP Megs. and I will say....

...I'm one step closer to pulling the trigger!

But wait! I didn't even think there could be a release with the mask!

Even if there is, there's no telling whether it will be a toy accurate megs or of t-wrecks, after all, shadow panther is coming with cheetor's mask...

[shajaki]

Cobs, I'm actually going to suggest you pass on him. There'll be another release, probably toy colors with mutant mask, and it'll pair up much better with your Supreme Commander

I think you and I are about to go opposite ways on our Megatron pre-order vs. not pre-order

But really though, I totally see you waiting on a version with the mutant mask to go with MP-38, even if Megatron didn't appear in the movie that Primal was based on (I think I got that right)

[Autobot Roadburn]

I’m going with AmiAmi, they have him on preorder for the yen equivalent of $240. That’s something I can personally justify. Better than $320, anyway. I’m doing the same with Dinobot, it’ll save me around $40-50.

[Emerje]

Holy.........................

Welp, that's all the justification I need for the price. Doubt I'll be regretting this in January.

Meanwhile, for the UK, Kapow Toys Pre-Order has dropped!

Regular RRP £270, pre-order price £225, 10% deposit £22.50

Release January 2019

The Link

Sold! Not as much of a price hike as I was expecting to be honest.

[william-james88]

Nippon Yassan has him at only $212 USD plus unlike Amazon, they help you with customs by not putting a high price. So thats where I will be going. IN the end, he will not be my priciest TF purchase afterall (honour goes to Encore Fort Max!)

[AllNewSuperRobot]

The price is largely irrelevant to me as I decided to support the whole line. With one exception so far being the repaint of Optimus Primal. MP-32 is superior, so there is no need to buy MP-38 at all.

Wow. That’s a crazy good price for Megatron. Wonder how their shipping prices are. I’ve never heard of them before, but they’ve got some decent prices, and a good selection. I might have to try them out later in the year.

For now, I went with my gut and preordered from Amiami as soon as I was able to. First time ordering from them. Turns out their price is better than my usual go-to HLJ, so I’m not disappointed.

[Ironhidensh]

HLJs price of $240, while still high, fits in my $250 limit.

The shipping they charge is like 5,000 JPY = $45 for the lowest registered option, I did the test on their site haha

[william-james88]

eeesh, thats some expensive shipping. I miss that 15$ shipping we got for shockwave.
