I don't think anything else has been announced at this time.
cool, kinda hoping after Arcee they bring out more of the legends line (especially Slipstream, Nightbird and Black Arachnia)Quote:

I dont think sideswipe is making it here though. But I can be wrong.
UW Superion arrived here for $400
What I can currently confirm/tell you so far is:
* LG10 Arcee
* MP10 Optimus Prime
* MP12 Sideswipe
* MP21G G2 Bumblebee
* MP25 Tracks
* UW01 Superion
I've already done the instructions/bio translations for all of these toys for Hasbro, so AFAIK these are toys which Hasbro would like to release here, but I think it's ultimately up to the retail buyers.
Actually I read somewhere that mp10 had also arrived here at the price of 400 :eek:
Leaving the current prices at
Superion $400
MP10 $400
Sideswipe $150
Goldbug $130
Likely tracks will be $150:(
I find it ridiculous that TRU are selling the Takara MP10 for $400 when they were the main store that had the Hasbro version for $200.
What makes the Takara one worth double the price?
I really find it hard to agree with the majority of TRU prices on the Masterpiece and larger sized figures, they just don't make sense.
Don't really understand why the huge prices? I mean if I can easily get it cheaper online, then clearly something wrong is happening here. $100 is the max I would pay for a masterpiece car the size of Sideswipe/Bumblebee
It's called Straya mate.
MP prices have gone up and the dollars gone down, the bricks and mortar stores got their GST on online stores (supposedly) to bring the online competition into line. A perfect storm which just means local stores can charge even more for imported items, just because that's the Australian way apparently.
Shame too, because I wouldn't mind having an MP with one of Goktimus's bios that I bought from a local store, but alas it looks like the Hasbro MP10 will retain that distinction.
