If FansProject announces Powermaster armor for this mold that would most likely convince me to buy one ;)Quote:

Any hints on MP Rodimus' packaging?
cheapest place to pre-order? i'm thinkin of robotkingdom once I get more moolah. Anyone know of cheaper (inc. postage) places to get the new masterpiece?

More details reach us via the wholesale route confirming some more details on the new MP-10 Convoy figure due this September
1) Confirmed G1 Convoy - not powermaster - comes with cab and trailer
2) Much more detail along the lines of THS-02 Convoy - many accessories
3) Approx one third shorter than the existing MP-01 Convoy figure
Freakin' lame. I don't know if I should be happy about saving my money or upset that I don't get to spend on the latest masterpiece who I thought was going to be ANYONE ELSE BUT OPTIMUS-FREAKING-PRIME!!!!!!
I've got to agree here, another prime is just a waste of plastic. they should be moving the masterpiece line forwards, a new character, Galvatron, a quality Ironhide, a fort max or other larger character would be great, even someone like Kup, Arcee or more dinobots would be better than another prime.Quote:

Weaksauce.

Though I am dissapointed that we don't have a MP Galvatron yet, or a proper G1 Ultra MagnusQuote:

I still can't fathom what alt mode they'd give a Masterpiece Galvatron or Soundwave. It's not that I wouldn't want one; I just understand the challenge.

I don't see why they would consider giving soundwave and galvatron different alt modes. And I sure as hell hope they dont either! Thats what classics, generations, united etc line is for!
