Maketoys have their own online shop. And right now, they are putting some of their stuff on sale.

http://maketoys.jp/shop/product-categor ... ade-deals/

I just finally ordered Despotron, the 3P Megatron that I really wanted. 99$USD is a pretty sweet deal for something that was almost 200$ not too long ago. Thank you :TAKARATOMY:

for the real MP-Megs! (And screw it's 300$ price!)

For Despotron, the flat rate shipping is 17$US for most part of the world.
BUT THERE'S MORE!
Before checking out, you can add 20$US for the Hover-Bomber set A.K.A not-Seaspray and Powerglide.
But there is a secret deal.
At the very end of checkout, instead of paying 17$ of shipping, you pay 37$ and they add a loose Citybot Armagedon set! So it's that kit:

For 20$!

So grand total I have this:

and that:

Shipped to Canada for 137$US! That's 180$CAN! I just hope Customs will spare me.

Anyway, just sharing on the deals. REAL deals. NOT sponsored by anyone. (Save 2$ on an Amazon DVD on the "steal-of-a-deal" thread anyone?)

I never thought I'd ever get the upgrade kit for my YOTS Omega Supreme. Especially for the original 120$US price. But at 20$? How can I refuse? And even though I sold Hegemon, Despotron was always the one to get for me because he's his own thing. It don't really pretend to be a "real" MP. It's actually a very kick-ass fan-art in toy form! :APPLAUSE:

Thanks for the info. Ordered mine as well. I was debating myself with the originally around $150 price tag but this deal is nice. And I totally agree with you on the MP Meg. :lol:

Now "IF" Takara is going to release Jazz and they screw up Jazz again, I will totally go for Downbeat.

Downbeat have an awesome robot mode, but the vehicle is trash with his fake panels sticking out from the sides and that nothingness at the rear, ABOVE the bumper.

As for Toyworld's Coolvilles, his vehicle mode look very nice, but the bot is derpy with hollow wrists and horrible looking elbows.

Now I want a 3rd option. #-o

This is the reason stopped me from considering it.
