I just started wanting to get back into TF collecting after I saw the MP Soundwave release and was able to snag one.
I'm really sad that I missed the awesome MP-10 TRU exclusive Optimus Prime. I'd really like to get my hands on a complete one (not necessarily new/mint). What is the going price for one? Are the eBay prices of $200+ pretty spot on or are they pretty inflated and I'd have better luck here?
Thanks in advance.

Or you can play the waiting game and hope for a reissue.

Thanks, Kanrabat. That's unfortunate, but I guess I'll have to see if I can try to find one locally or on the boards before giving up and buying on eBay.
Does TRU typically do reissues? I think I've seen Takara do them frequently but haven't seen info on reissues for TRU.

As for Soundwave, I think I will never be able to have the Hasbro version so I'll have to rely on the Takara one. Sigh...
Anyway, anyone have that G1 Doubledealer part at a non-rape price?

Sorry I meant Hasbro reissue a US version (whether it be another TRU exclusive or otherwise). I'd really like the US version since it would be cheaper but I also like the colors better overall.
I actually just bought the MP Soundwave and there were two more left in the TRU near me as of yesterday morning. If you'd like, I'd be happy to help you out if they still have one left, but it looks like the eBay prices are pretty reasonable. I think with tax in my state it was something like $127/$128. Not sure what shipping would be to Quebec (lovely city by the way, I've been twice).
Anyway, let me know if you'd like me to help you out. I wouldn't ask for anything other than to cover my costs and PayPal fees.

Also, anyone know where I could get a decent figure stand for one or more MPs? I saw a Skeleton stand on eBay for around $30 but I don't know if I want to pay that much just for a stand that I honestly think I could build after a trip to Home Depot.
