I'm very surprised about the schedule but also reassured that Takara is really putting effort into getting collectors an MP line.
So, if there's a slight delay I'm not concerned about it. However, it is good news so one can budget appropriately!

Too true necrO, but given the situation in China and their recent transfer to Viet Nam, either all is not well in the land of the sleeping dragon or the Vietnamese factories just can't hack it.
Sometimes I wish they'd give us a breather no?

Adding an "apology" doesn't negate the action and the damage already done especially when such actions are not limited to just this post.......food for thought.

I'm all for pacing it out a bit if the issue is related to quality control - don't want another Lambor's paint debacle again. As for a breather, I think Takara was sitting on this before and finally started being more proactive in the past year. We can speculate all day about WHY it's happening now, but I'm glad there's a real sense of ownership in making an expanded MP line a reality.
I can definitely appreciate that the proposed schedule may hurt some potential buyers in the back pocket, but not sure how well we should balance release dates and still project the message that the Masterpiece line is actively being promoted.
