Packaging and Tray Images for Transformers Masterpiece MP-43 Beast Wars Megatron

is it confirmed there's a stand in the tray *under* him?

I assume the stand is in/under the part of the tray that is not in the picture. The product shots on the bottom right side (back of the box) do indicate that a stand would be included (although I suppose it could be the stand packaged with Dinobot - however only having a single, shared, stand would be kind of stupid/useless when trying to set them both up in a battle scene).

From what I can see he looks totally bad-a$$. Can't wait till he arrives!!!

Super excited for him! Hopefully I'll get him next week, he's supposed to come in stock this weekend

 TFW2005 Boards member chrisr291 has MP-43 BW Megatron in hand, and posted pictures there. Not sure if I'm allowed to mirror his pictures here, but I checked them out and he does indeed look great. Got check him out if you want to add more hype to his excitement

This year's most important release (take that MP 44) is upon us. I am talking of course of Masterpiece MP-43 Beast Wars Megatron. While he is being released officially after tomorrow, certain stores already got him in stock (to be ready for release date) and some lucky fans have already held him in their loving arms. We are now getting many in hand images while we wait for a video review. The images show us that he is even bigger than MP-36 G1 Megatron. We see him scale with Optimus Primal and Dinobot. We also see the electronics with his eyes as well as shots of him without his beast shell.

The images come to us from various sources such as 变形金刚玩具吧 (who has a haunting avatar photo), and chrisr291 (who has an avatar I can get behind) along with other posts on various social media outlets.

The initial reaction has been mostly favourable. He is imposing, solid and has a nice transformation, reminiscent of the original toy. While the hip pieces don't hold on as tightly as would be preferable, the remaining beast shell stays on the robot quite well.

"A single Masterpiece figure, perfectly crafted in the likeness of the show model. I'm almost touched!"

*looks at price*

"...fortunately, such moments pass quickly."

These pictures make me regret cancelling my preorder. But that price tag... It would be the most expensive figure I've ever purchased.

How does this quote fit this Masterpiece better than "Yesssss"?

Anyway, this is one great figure, and I am shocked that he has both a sound chip and an ab crunch, both of which I had no idea he had. I bet this guy will be worth the price, and just makes me cry in agony that I'm still broke

Amazon Japan in an e-tailer.

I just got the payment request from AmiAmi! Yeah, I'm paying more overall and the shipping is going to be a little slower (air small packet, better than SAL), but I'm not in a rush and I have enough points saved up to bring the total price down to $250 just like on Amazon Japan right now.
