Today, i receive note from my distributor that Hasbro Asia are to release Takara MP8 Grimlock again at the end of July this year.
It will be identical to previous releases, with no changes or extra added.
Price will be 680MYR, which is roughly $220.00

Rated X wrote:$220.00 ??? What kind of crack are they smoking at Hasbro Asia ???
I paid about $70.00 back here in the USA at my local TRU a couple years back. And it came with a crown, sword, and gun. Granted mine didnt come with the Computron brain thing or the stupid waiters apron and tray, but $150.00 more for a re-release of the Hasbro version ??? This is not the Takara version...

On the other hand, I just don't like the obsolete T-Rex proportions, although I FULLY UNDERSTAND that that's the point of the MP line; to recreate a perfected version of the G1 toy while staying as close to the original designs as possible. Just a personal peeve of mine.
I agree with everyone else that 220 is pretty damn steep, but seeing as everything else has also become more expensive....

His "realistic" Classic mode made him look.....well more like a Tarzan which I don't dig........maybe a more Fred Flinstone look that we all love.
