Did I think they were going to so soon? No.
Did I think Hasbro of all people were ever going to do Acid Storm? No.
Do I want a(n) MP-11 mold of Skywarp? Yes.
Do I give give two shits about MP Acid Storm? No.
Do I expect enough other people to to make it a success? No.
Potentially ruining the possibility of a(n) MP-11 Skywarp? Yes.
Did I enjoy asking myself and answering 50 questions? Sort of...

I'm trying to understand your logic.
You said that Acid Storm would "kill the chances of Hasbro making MP Skywarp." First of all, how can you kill the chances of something that already happened? And second, that would seem to imply that you believe there WAS a chance that Hasbro would be making another MP Skywarp in the near future. Even if Hasbro HADN'T made a MP Skywarp recently, I still don't see how making Acid Storm would "kill" any chance of them making Skywarp. Hasbro made MP Starscream and Skywarp, and that didn't stop them from following up with Thundercracker. Thundercracker didn't stop them from making Acid Storm (if this rumor is true). So why would Acid Storm suddenly kill any chance of Skywarp?

He's greedy for Skywarp and wants all of us to pay the price for another MP Skywarp to clog the pegs for months like the last time he saw fruition.

Don't care about Acid, just not interested in MP seekers

Now Acid Storm is interesting, what could be running through Hasbro's mind? Or maybe it's actually a future TakaraTomy item sharing MP Soundwave's fate.

Easy. Just imagine this...
...but colored like this.

IIRC, they've only done this with 3 MP figures:
MP02, 04 (both at Target) and very oddly, Ghost Starscream (at TRU)
All other MP's: G1 Starscream, Grimlock, Rodimus w/Offshoot, MP10 and MP11 mold Thundercracker have had the Hasbro/US packaging. And considering TRU is the only mainstream/big-box retailer offering MP's, it's a sure bet that whatever the US will get, so will they.

It's not limited to MP's. DotM Jetwing Optimus Prime was released in Australia a week before his exclusive Japanese release, in TakaraTomy packaging. It's by no means an abandoned practice.

Did you miss the MP-11 mold part? Did a Hasbro MP-03 mold of Thundercracker ever happen? Think maybe that had something to do with how the 03 mold of Skywarp sold? So the logic is if an Acid Storm MP sells poopy (likely), there's little chance of Hasbro and TRU doing the MP-11 mold Skywarp next. But if TRU was willing to take Acid Storm, they probably woulda been equally willing to take Skywarp...because WTH is Acid Storm to them?

I get what you're saying. My point is that there was little chance (if any!) of Hasbro and TRU doing a new MP Skywarp anyway.

THE RELEASE OF ACID STORM WILL REDUCE THE ODDS OF HASBRO MAKING MP SKYWARP AGAIN FROM 0% TO 0%. YOU CAN'T KILL SOMETHING THAT'S ALREADY DEAD.
