Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-27 Ironhide To Be Reissued

Posted by Va'al May 10, 2016 at 3:17am CDT 32,219 views
Also from site sponsor TFSource we receive news of a Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece reissue, and it's fairly close to the first release of the figure: MP-27 Ironhide! Even with MP30 Ratchet only just hitting shelves (collectors'), it looks like the market wanted more, and Takara said yes. The reissue is expected to arrive September 2016.

Freshen your memory of the old codger by browsing through the Seibertron.com galleries, here!

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

If you didn't get him first time round, get off your asses and get him this time.

If you don't, you're dead to me.

Seriously ... if you're going to challenge my advice, at least make the effort to look, now I have to embarrass you.

TRU Australia are the only nation-wide stores that stock TakaraTomy Masterpieces. You won't find them in other nation-wide retailers. You might find them in small individual pop culture stores.

Figure = $US56.90

Total = $US83.61 = $AU113.54
Savings = $AU36.45 (TRU MP-25 = $AU149.99)

Still cheaper than even TRU MP-25, and TRU MP-27 is not going to be $AU149.99.

Geesh, even eBay: MP-27 Ironhide, Worldwide shipping, sorted "Price + Postage: lowest first":
Buying from TRU AU is lunacy.

While you are importing, why not import from a seller who has better shipping?

The prices are the same at Amiami http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail ... agecnt%3D1
But the shipping is 10$ less for ironhide. Shockwave only cost 15$ to ship

Never had a problem with RK, rarely a problem with eBay. AmiAmi runs out of stock way quicker. Partly because they're a "hobby" (model kits, etc) store, not a "toy" store. Try and buy MP-19, MP-21G, MP-22, MP-23, MP-24 or any of the MP-18 variants from them today.

And for the record, it was a simple demonstration of shopping anywhere else but TRU. eToysJapan MP-27: $US71.44 + $US16.67 shipping. FiguresDirect.com.au, even.

They only carry whats new. And I thought this discussion was triggered by the fact that Ironhide was getting reissued, which they would carry (and they still have Ironhide in stock anyways).

Fellow Seibertronians, as a follow up to our article on the reissue of MP-27 Ironhide, which can be found here, we bring you news of another reissue of MP-27 Ironhide, but this time he includes a new accessory in the form of a large, possibly hand held drill weapon. The pre-order page can be found at bbts here and at TFSource here, he is due to arrive in September along with the normal reissue of MP-27. The new accessory can be seen below; so are you interested in this new accessory? Let us know in the comments below.

Well, this is a slap in the face to everyone who faithfully bought Ironhide on his initial release. I could understand if this reissue were released a few years after the initial release with some improvements, either to the deco or engineering or sculpt include, with a bonus accessory to entice you to double dip if you bought the earlier iteration. I hope Takara finds a way to make the accessory available to collectors who already have MP Ironhide.

Its a bit different than that. Takara isnt making this accessory, Hasbro Asia is (its written on the picture above the weapon). They are the same ones who gave us the key to vector sigma. And it costs 15$ more anyway. Its just a way for them to compete with the takara rerelease. They are doing the same for Primal with the exclusive mace.

I can only wonder what is truly different in this reissue, given I don't own him yet and he is still in stock at BBTS now, and TFsource has the Original Release with Collectors Coin in stock as well. Should I really wait until September for a figure that might be exactly the same? Were there any noticeable tolerances that needed a desperate fix on anyones? :-? :???:
