Nope. Just fiddling and posing. As a figure, from what I could see/feel, he is outstanding. Transformation and truck mode.... we'll see :-?

It continues this morning....

Yesterday preorders for MPM-4 went live (proper Takara version). HLJ and Amiami were instantly sold out. I managed to get one though from a good third option (BigInJapan). And what do I wake up to this morning? And email saying they can't fulfill the preorder. Like... seriously? >:oP

Whelp. All I'ma say is be careful throwing around blanket statements, especially if you don't have first hand experience.

New find on the way home today

News Credits: 3 · by **bodrock** » Fri Aug 04, 2017 1:29 am

Nice score, Shaj! Either I'm too slow these days on the Hunt, or Oregon is hating wave 5. They kinda like TLK, but no-go on Hot Rod....

BLANKETS!!

Also, I need to find wave 4 and 5 in the wild!! Just so I can decide first hand how many of them I want to buy, which seems to currently be "all".

Nice pick-up home slice!!

I've actually been pretty slow on the hunt lately too. Well, maybe not the hunt, but the finds :lol:

Not even Wave 4 yet? What's the hold up? :-?

Speaking of hunting, I'm happy to say here's one off the list! There's a couple Hasbro TRU coupons floating around, good till end of August, $20 off and 10% off. They're not supposed to be used in tandem, but my cashier didn't know apparently!

What are the differences in the fig, if any?

And don't worry, I know what makes him different enough for YOU to get him.

Yeah, what made you decide to buy every single version and box variant?

News Credits: 3 · by **bodrock** » Fri Aug 04, 2017 11:37 pm

Sweet, new MP10! I'm so tempted to get him if I see 'im, just so he can face-off proper with MP36 come January 2018....

Hey shaj, have you you time to mess around with mpm prime. I just got him at tru an hour ago and so far he's amazing.

Weird thing is, I think I got the Hasbro asia version because there's no tru sticker and the bottom is blank unlike what bees is

Y'know.... I don't know :lol:

Maybe it was when I started getting some of the more rare MP's... the notion to fill the gaps probably just happened naturally.

If you're getting a 36, you need a 10. And I will fight to the death over the superiority of the Takara MP-10 over the Hasbro MP-10 [-(

Yes... I know. It's almost like you take joy in pointing these things out :-?

Sigi, I know your question wasn't meant to be rude, but...

N! C'mon! That's just rude. I know your nicer than that.

the world is full of all kinds of collectors who aim their collections in very specific directions. Shajaki has a specific focus. He's a grown man who works very hard. He can spend his time and hard earned money on what ever he wants.

EDIT: Well ninja'd by the proprietor. But seriously here let's all treat each other with a little respect.
