Just preordered mine at Oh My Primus ($SGD 139). Including shipping it worked out around $150 which is around the middle tier in terms of pricing methinks. But I only have to put down a $20 deposit which is a big plus for me.

Yeah, but MP Lambor was never designed to be so slavishly cartoon-accurate. He has a massively bulked out chest compared to the cartoon design. Having all these cheats (and I suspect that this is what's contributed to boosting the cost of the toy) is what we pay to have such high level screen-likeness.Quote:

I'm just glad to see pics with Sunstreaker having a silver spoiler surface.
I've got my preorder in with BBTS - still checking daily with HLJ to see when their preorders come up.
Great price from a great sellerQuote:

Does Collector's Drift require upfront payment or just a deposit?
Preorder up at Anime Export, 8400 yen:
http://www.anime-export.com/product/36260
We've seen the yellow spoiler in the magazine promo shots, and the chrome ver is not a 'legit' Lamborghini Countach color.Quote:

Unless it's changed recently, you can pay upfront or upon release. Postage calculated on release or pickup from western Sydney.Quote:

Cool, that means the more reputable Japanese stores should be opening pre-orders soon. :)Quote:

Interesting how they're promoting the toy as having 3 modes (３段変形する). I suspect that this may be contributing to the additional cost of the toy, as Tracks was the other MP Car who was above the standard price.
Little toy company has listed sunstreaker at $125.
I'm hyped about the figure, what he can do...but not the price, the third "mode" is nothing more than a car nod.
I wonder though, he has redeco potential in red and police car variants, any backstory for these diaclone variants or they just gonna straight repaint him up and serve him up?
I'm kinda hoping for something like roadrage, a retool to make them more interesting :D
Here's the link for The Little Toy Co. preorder:

Anime export 8400jpy that looks alright
Unlike the Sideswipe and Tracks Diaclone colours that got released with TF bios years before the MP releases, Sunstreaker's "lost mold" meant we never got them, so any new identities would be new (like Exhaust and Loudpedal).Quote:

The closest "canonical" repaint of Sunstreaker are the headmaster clones in the earlier IDW books and I doubt TakTom would go down that path.
Nonetheless, I was still hoping for it. I'm not complaining, and as you say there may be stickers.Quote:

Extra pic:
http://i.imgur.com/ENqKFbP.jpg
That looks a lot like a yellow spoiler again in that last photo!
The TTMall listing doesn't mention an extra piece in the set either... so pure voodoo transformation?
Or it could be an older photo added by mistake (like when Ramjet first went up with one and was taken down shortly after)
And retail is indeed 12000Y+tax here... damn. No mention of diecast, rubber tires or anything fancy, so it's all on the parts count i guess! It looks good but it better be for that price!
Even in these pics with the same pose, the spoiler (near his ass) changes colours:Quote:

And all the 'bot mode pics, asides from the first two, are shown with the yellow spoiler; so probably running changes that they then forgot to photoshop into the consistent colour.
Good spot! And yeah, overlaid with each other, that is the exact same photo, so one is definitely edited.

Go with AmiAmi if you are only purchasing one item or........Quote:

I would recommend HLJ. Better customer support in case something goes wrong too. :)
