That rumour turned out to be false as the given dates for all of them has been and gone. But I wouldn't give up hope of a reissue since MP-10 and MP-12 are both seeing reissues.Quote:

and Gok, can't tell ya how many threads there are where you post rrp comparisons (and state the ridiculousness) of the price difference between releases like MP-11 and MP-3. I mean, MP-3 was released nearly 10 years ago...
Reissue happened months ago Raider. Think RK had him for $139USD or so.Quote:

It feels the same as the price hike w/ Hasbro's TRU exclusive MP Bluestreak, having jumped to $130 compared to the $100 price tag on their MP Prowl just last year.Quote:

I paid freakin' $50 each for my Gentei Thundercracker & Thrust because at the time a regular retail version of a Classicsverse Thundercracker & Thrust didn't exist. My only other option was to hunt down a BotCon Thundercracker & Thrust, which would've been even dearer. Then Hasbro released Generations Thundercracker & Thrust few years later; I bought them both to support Hasbro's decision to release these characters in regular retail. MP11T's a bit of a different story because this is the third release of this character in the MP line.
Annnnd sold out
Oh god...
You know why Apple is highly profitable and rest of the PC and mobile device industries are in the crapper? Because Apple makes higher quality products and builds reasonable profit margins into their price.
I feel like Takara Tomy is the Apple of Transformers. They are doing premium releases like the MP line and Legends line, hell even the TAV line has higher quality paint jobs, and they charge a higher, more profitable price.
It's called capitalism, if you have a problem with that then go live in the middle ages.
Though it is third release who can say is the same colour just as mp11 starscream by hasbro?
I'm only posting an observation of hasbro selling patterns for mp only. In no way i inplied i am correct , only that is beginning to be an obvious route. If you think my observation is negative then is just too bad. I guess i should shut up about skywarp being hasbro mp-09 or 10
Thoses who have bought for the box purposes have no choice but to buy this as you may not get a takara version in the end. I think it would be release at later stages.
Unless someone is working with hasbro can give a definate answer that no more seekers for the following two years. I am actually just expecting just that along with the other mp cars and if any luck they throw in their hasbro magnus eventuality.
Just remember this is a takara exclusive not a hasbro.
I also like to add, if hasbro is going to issue a next mp decepticon,
Who else is in the list? Lol
Exhuast which is banned? Or the remaining two seekers which are not released in this new style box?
I be surprised if anything comes out new from hasbro before takara. Acid storm was indeed a surprise.
Apple make better marketed products and maybe better looking products depending on your taste but better quality? They are usually the same bits underneath as a PC. Wow, does sound like Takara and Hasbro ��Quote:
