New Images of Masterpiece Rhinox Showing Back and Different Angles in Both Modes

I don't think the side view is that bad. Since everything is the same color it sort of blends together, it would be different if the bot parts were green or black.

Are the rhino eyes articulated? In the top image they're looking forward, but on the bottom they're looking to the side. Is it just a trick of the camera?

TAIL LIFTS! Now just need bean vines, sippy hat, and giant lumenscent energon fart cloud

Amazon Japan listing, currently at $265 USD after shipping, doesn't appear to have been reduced yet: https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/gp/produc?tag=seibertron00-22& ... RJN5&psc=1

Sounds like a great redeco option

I agree, especially since he gets a whole new Predacon color scheme with the silver instead of gold and I think a purplish tint to his skin color instead of brown (and perhaps some other color swaps???). A Predacon Rhinox redeco would be very welcomed!

Let's also be clear. Aside from the Dark Design redeco, Rhinox is a one and done mould. He had a Takara colour scheme variation*. But there were no other bots that came from him.

There's always the possibility of giving a new name to the Fox Kids repaint. It's not like the MP line doesn't already have a long history of taking obscure repaints and giving them new identities.

While Masterpiece Rhinox is available for pre-order at plenty of online retailers, fans were waiting to see how low the price could get. Well Amazon Japan now has the figure at $160 USD, thanks to their customary discount on Transformers figures. That's the current conversion on the ¥24068 price you see when adding the figure to your cart. Of course, that price does not include shipping or any duty/custom fees.

For those unaware, orders from Japan for MP figures tend to ship sooner than their Hasbro counterparts. So that's another reason fans tend to choose Amazon Japan over western retailers. You'll let us know which option you go with.

Agreed with the pricing noted here on Amazon Japan. They will charge customs automatically. Even with shipping included too the price is the cheapest.

That's bizarre because when I click the same link, it shows as available for pre-order.

Anyway so I have like a dozen POs there at the moment, not intending to discourage

good point! Not deterred

Actually yes I was finally able to! For a total of ¥28,562 or roughly $193.20 USD. Not quite a $30 savings but I always like getting it under the nearest hundred so I’m cool with it.
