Waiting for robotkingdom to see their price then pre-order it ^_^
Comes with Asia Exclusive with Flame Sword & Crown Coin!
Flame sword!!!! :D:D
Thats almost worth buying
This is why I no longer support ebay folks, Transformers masterpiece is reliable for reissues and it will pay off if you wait. Now if you bought the other exclusive Grimlock, I would have wasted at least $50
Wow, there really is a price I'm not willing to pay for a transformer.Quote:

Oh yeah the worst thing to happen is when Takara Tomy decides "Hey you know what" lets do the entire Dinobots but at a different affordable scale.
I be very damn pissed.
Ooh. Perfect. Time to start saving for this and YOTH Optimus Prime. :) I'm a happy panda.
yet to see pictures to get me interested, and "Who" will bring it into our local stores.Quote:

Not who, if they bring it in. It's a reissue of MP08, what's there to see? Or are you waiting to see the flame sword add-on and coin-crown as a decider to make up your mind?Quote:

I can't believe I'm considering buying it. I mean it's just a new sword and crown. But then again I would like a Grimlock on display in robot mode.
I'll be interested to see what the crown-coin gimmick will turn out to be, whether there'll be a folding cardboard holder a bit like the Soundwave coin or if it will be a gimmick with the coin itself.
Ordered 2
Recently got a tru version but want one to open
The other one is just because I wanted back ups
Are any other places such as Amiami and Hlj going to release these or are these just solely for that site?
I can see a few ebay seller probably getting rid of the old version and probably buying the new ones.

I've got my pre-orders in with ishop2go for MP-11 and MP-08 for US$155 and US$167 respectively and about US$35 shipping to Sydney. They're generally the same price as RobotKingdom but the Takara stuff generally tends to run cheaper.
I've bought from them in the past (mainly MPs and Chogokin), good service and relatively quick shipping but they're normally the last guys to get the stock in.
Unlikely, as this is an Asian exclusive (by Hasbro Hong Kong), and those are Japanese online stores, so generally stock JP (TakaraTomy) figures.Quote:

Grrr.
I think this one going to be a mass release after they were testing the reaction of the china con sales ....so it shouldn't be that hard to find as a few online sights selling the MP coins separate from the figure!Quote:

Ah, good old EHobbyBaseShop... RK shouldn't be far behind then, and hopefully more like $159.99 (my prediction). I hope their customer service is good enough to add Grimlock onto an order I've already paid for... anyone know if they will do this favour?Quote:

Don't know, BD, they've got less than 55 units on preorder available :oQuote:

RK's shipping rates seem to have jumped greatly with the site redesign. I got 2 MP Tigertrack back in June and shipping was only $25 for the pair. I just did an estimate on 2 Bluestreaks, and shipping was quoted as being $40 for the pair.
Was going to pre-order this guy from Robotkingdom, but damn,.. the shipping is a killer! is there something wrong? its like $44 cheapest for shipping....
mmm how are e-hobby with their shipping rates?
Rk's shipping is way too expensive for me now even with SAL.
I didn't even see the insurance option they had with their previous website.
Ehobbybase gives you the choice of how you want to ship it, I think it was around $20.00 Aus for Normal air post for my MP Sideswipe and $29.00 EMS. I think there was a third cheaper option but I could be wrong. They are excellent at packaging the figure.
Hmmm... sounds like it should be around the same shipping cost as RK then, since MP-08 is at least 4 times heavier (and that's being conservative...). I just ordered it from RK (along with one other item to throw into the big postage)... didn't actually realise the postage had gone up...Quote:
