7/11 MASTERPIECE OPTIMUS PRIME
-
I got a STRONG sense that this is a fake.
Why the additional decals next to the axe (they kinda remind me of the ones from gundam 7-11 collab model kits but it's not a kit I have nor can I read the japanese to work out what it is), why is the axe in solid metallic green even the black convoy redeco kept it as clear (I'm suspecting its painted over) and finally the lower legs.
Is that...blue sticking out?
Seems silly to paint an mp10 in white when a ko redeco of mp10 into ultra magnus exist but I'm doubtful until proven otherwise, and believe me I would like to be wrong
-
LMAO if this is true. All those underpaid employee entitlements being spent on funding a Transformers repaint huh? :p
-
Ok maybe there is some truth in it, found this, someone cleared the twitter image, it matches up...

That was only here I believe and not in Japan, and 7-11 over there does collabs...just never knew they did more than gundam before.
The deco on the magnus is a big lacking though, I get its meant to be more magnus than a straight up 7-11 deco job but could green bands across the arms would of been nice
-
Make the repair arm bit in the trailer into a Slurpee machine and this is so bought!! :D

Knew I missed something. :o
Cheers, I'll add it to the first post.
And thanks to the magic of the google machine, I've found out that there are nearly 20,000 7/11 outlets in Japan. The deco makes much more sense now.

I've a lot of love for Japanese 7 Eleven (and Japanese convenience stores in general) and this is a bit of an odd choice but hey, what the hell.
Wish the Australian arm wasn't so bad though (mostly regarding wages)

Yup, and they're way better than ours, almost like super mini supermarkets!

Think how far we've come. 10 years ago this would have been 7/11 Masterpiece 'Ultra Magnus'!
(Heh. 666th post used to reference the horror that was the White Prime as Magnus years.)
-
may be Lawson will make their own version (Gold MP10 Convoy anyone?) :D
-
I am not saying no....
but I want Pepsi or Coke truck. Surprised that didn't happen but 7/11 did.
Not overly keen on 7/11.
Would have been great if container opened and has big gulp, the soft ice cream instead of the command crane etc.
-
It should be a PC truck. That would explain the trailer being a big space of empty :D
Sorry, I couldn't resist :D :D :D
At the very least this shows the MP10 mold isn't being retired anytime soon.
-
I will probably buy this if it's not stupidly expensive (which I'm sure it will) :o

Same.
Id also like the trailer to open up with a fold out diorama of a store with vending machines and a little kreo attendant, or Spike repaint dressed as one... either or.

That would make this quite the exclusive indeed!
On the figure itself I woulda preferred a more substantial 7/11 deco (green faceplate? orange/yellow somewhere?) instead of the plain Ultra Magnus deco.
-
Could be worse, could be a 9/11 prime

I agree.
This is a rather pathetic looking redeco.
Having seen so many KOs in this color scheme just makes me disinterested in this exclusive.
No doubt we'll see this popping up at half the price but double the size as a weijiang KO.

HA! It hurts so freaking much...
Well...to be fair they used the mp01 mold *just* before mp10 came out, they might be trying to give it one last push before announcing a new prime, think about it, the hasbro reissue, SG prime before it, black convoy in december, this one might be one of the final uses...I hope not as I'll be tempted to chase after it

Ehh, I think that they would have done that years ago if that was the case considering the amount of actual reissues/repaints, reissues of repaints etc the mold has had over the years. I think there's a bit of life left in it yet.

It's so s#*t house !
I want it !!!!

I really want a G2 version of this mould with the black trailer. The voice box would be pretty cool as well.

New images on TFW show that the 7-Eleven logo on Magnus' shoulder is optional and it also comes with an Autobot sticker.
http://news.tfw2005.com/2017/07/28/m...es-info-345718
Price confirmed to be 27,000¥ including tax. Won't come cheap but I'm definitely keen to grab this one.
-
Is anyone can find a shop who will get the preorder up?

My maximum 7 eleven Japan spending in one go is only 1,800yen, this will definitely beat it big time if im still there :D

Plus it's going to totally bite them in the arse when they release the 24 masterpiece figures they have lined up in the year 2065 (I did some bad math :p)

If I recall correctly the rrp for MP10 was 23,000 yen. Just like 7-11 to jack up the price! :p
-
up for pre order on AE, was about $370

that's not shipped right? damn soo pricey :(
-
not shipped , the most expensive I've bought. Still cheaper than an b-ape but
-
I've put in a pre-order with AE but haven't paid yet. I've never ordered from them and the feedback seems mixed. Feels a little iffy making this my first order with them given the price. Thinking RK might be the better option even if it ends up being a little more expensive, they pack orders really well and have excellent customer service.
