It looks more grey than black... which would give them the three colours to match their three Gen1 BAPE Convoys from a few years back.
It's kinda boring, so needs to be part of the collection of the three MP Convoys.
And even if you could get one at retail price, that's more expensive than the full trailer version... and I doubt too many people will open it up to play with it, as it would just be an investment piece at that price.

TRANSFORMERS MP CONVOY BAPE® BLACK CAMO VERSION
COLOR: BLACK ￥17,800 +TAX.
Not that I'm interested but like all the other MP-10 repaints, I'm sure there'll be KO versions for those interested. With improvements! (no need to go for scalper prices $$$ )
I think the Classics Seeker mould would have that record as far as Transformers go.Quote:

And what makes it bad is there will be another one next year
Its a money making and publicity exercise, pure and simple. And considering how much these figures are going for on the market, it is clearly working. I eagerly await the turqoise version coming out next year.
Its out in japan!
Looking like its selling for the sub$400 mark.
Should be able to get it posted to australia for $500 or less
I soooooo read the thread title wrong >_<
