Long shot indeed.
I had a go at this auction, but prices are exorbitant :/
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/201599747427
I was really hoping for an announcement from TT at the Tokyo Toy Show for Skywarp, alas that seems unlikely :(
I saw that one. But I don't think he ships internationally anyway? :o
Lol whoops. Good thing I didn't win, though I have a cousin in New York.
I think it's a case of waiting patiently or pillaging your wallet. I have a Hasbro Skywarp which keeps me content for now.
I am waiting to get one too.. I believe a lot of people are eager on this piece..
That auction ended at $AU 550.
Jesus Christ, good luck if anyone sells it to you for a reasonable price. Can someon remind me again why Skywarp turned out to be so rare? How many pieces were released?
Edit: From TFWiki: "Skywarp was only released in China via Hasbro Asia under the TakaraTomy label; marking the second time an original TakaraTomy Masterpiece toy wasn't released for the Japanese market"Quote:

It'll get a proper reissue one day. Much like MP-08X and well... every single one of them, really.
Well my budget was around $400au (shipped?) lol
So yeah I'm willing to pay a bit more than the rrp. Dunno bout 550 though.
which one was the first MP toy in Takara Tomy box but not released in Japan?Quote:

Possibly because MP-05G sold poorly. Who knows? It's a very strange thing. But I think there'll be a Japanese market release at some point (along with a wider Hasbro Asia release).Quote:

It just seems odd TT aren't doing their own release anytime soon given their release choices are all about squeezing / milking as much money as they can from molds.
Whenever you guys find a case of this guy please put me down for one.;)
In fact I'm sure half of the members here want one.
It's all a giant tease.Quote:
