As for the figure themselves, they're basically what you'd expect. MPG-12 is a purple Optimus Prime based on the MP-44S toy colors package, just swapping out the normal alternate head with the battle damaged head that came with the original MP-44 3.0 figure. MPG-13 Jetfire appears to be a straight repaint of MP-57 Jetfire, but lacks the flight stand, mini figures and face mask of the original release.
MPG-12 has a suggested price of 33,000 JPY (but will be available much cheaper in most places) and will be out in March 2025. MPG-13 is priced at 39,600 JPY, and as an exclusive that price will not change, and is ALSO being released in March 2025. However, both will likely be available on Hasbro Pulse in the coming days. Keep in mind this is one month after MPG-10 Lift Ticket and MPG-11 Guard are released in February. I guess the evil Autobots of Shattered Glass are just as happy to slay our wallets as they are Decepticons!
