Might as well give him a gold horse head too. Would look pretty good with those rings :D

Just got a reply on whether we'd be getting Prime here:
Hi Ryan,
There are plans for the distribution of this product for the beginning to mid year of 2014.
I have no further information at this time which stores will be distributing the product.

Promising. Sounds like Hasbro are also fishing for any mid year Toy Sale interest from retailers, if the 'beginning of 2014' doesn't materialize.
I mean, I'm only going by what I can see on shelves - unlike you I don't have the privilege of being a store employee. But Target sold out of UM completely during the four weeks of the mid-year toy sale. K-Mart I think have sold out of POP since discounting it (I only bought mine a week or two ago). Big W, meanwhile, didn't seem to even have an Omega on display until mid-September, when I promptly picked it up and put it on layby, with none throughout the whole of the toy sale; I initially thought it had sold out. But Rocky Big W looks like it's on a mission to become the single worst place in the universe to buy toys (a title previously held by Rocky Target, which has since upped its game): they have reduced the size of their toy section despite it being nearly Christmas; they've devoted an entire endcap to TMNT which is never fully stocked; they have crates of toy cases which they take out every night, but never put on shelves; they then claim to have no room for layby.
In TRU's defence, it only got Grimlock vs Bruticus around the same time Metroplex and Soundwave were showing up, so you'd expect it to hang around longer. But with no stores anyway for miles around me, a frankly shoddy website, and their crazy prices, I'm seriously hoping neither of these end up exclusive to TRU. I'd really like that Prime, especially since I missed out on the first Australian release of the mold. It'd be a shame to get screwed out of it because of geography.
I would say BigW did too well, there were none left within a month
Mother of Primus, those new pics. :eek:

Can't wait. Just anxiously awaiting Christmas for money now. ;)
$170 shipped. :)
For some reason this version of MP-10 reminds me of Pepsi Prime. Not on my list, but good luck to all who are after him.
The trailer reminds me of Ghost Starscream. Maybe it "died" one day when Optimus Prime transformed to robot mode and it was quickly rolling off screen (as it always does in the G1 cartoon! ;)) and rolled off a cliff. If Roller is clear too, then he must've been in the trailer when it blew up. The remaining Spark energy that was initially dispersed between Prime's three components then amalgamated in the cab/robot, making him goSuper Saiyajin^gold chrome. :p
He looks like Pepsi Convoy
Any news that Australia will get this? Kind of tempted to just buy it off ebay now and don't think about it.
And ships sometime in the next couple weeks (according to ehobbybaseshop, who also has it for $130 plus $41 shipping on its own)... so if it comes here, it might not be for some time after that (but might not be much more though, as we usually get good deals on the higher priced stuff).
I heard nothing from Hasbro Australia. I think they decided to lay back will its really year of the horse.

urm so yeah....year of the horse then. lol
I think I just wait it out, I am not keen and also might be more on to the mp Ultra Magnus. Wished they did Grimlock, the bling will just all fall in place.
First review of YOTH OP.

Must buy it!!!!!!
Starscream images as well (as these two appear to be in release in HK already).
I've given the TFW link because the source link of ACTOYS is really slow.
It also reveals the Anniversary number on each of them - 12 for Optimus and 13 for Starscream.
My YOTH Optimus Prime & Starscream is on its way here courtesy of RK. ;) Hopefully in my hands by Xmas. :D
And BBTS will have theirs available the 2nd of Feb :rolleyes:
I'll order mine from RK next year
That Optimus is horrible!! If you like it then quite obviously your taste is in your backside ;):p
Hi everyone. I've been a transformer fan since I was a kid in the 80's and have just decided to start collecting the Masterpiece line (for now anyway).
Got up early this morning and saw Ehobbybaseshop had 5 YOTH MP-10s in stock so I ordered one. Chose the economy shipping method but it still cost $46USD! That was a lot more than I was expecting.
Not a big fan or thedefacedHorse symbol on Starscream.
got notification from my supplier and it will be released this coming friday.
It was released in Asia today (I'm on my hols atm)...

They retail about close to 200 bucks a pop... I'm not a fan of this and didn't pick it up.
Stay away from Starscream as that's seriously an outdated mould and such an ugly piece of cr*p... the box was humongous tho.
Save your money for better things :)
My YOTH OP & Starscream arrived today. Each is a massive box!
OP's gun is coloured brown with silver barrel. :confused: His red paint is several shades darker than Hasbro MP-10.
Yeah Starscream looks like a block Lego piece. :p but nice box art.
