Not that I care, since I'm eagerly looking forward to my MP-08X Grimlock, but since this has been a hotly contended issue on the board... from Hasbro US:
"We are pleased to announce that the next Masterpiece item that we will be releasing will be Grimlock in 2010. We are excited to be able to offer this item within the U.S. and will certainly share more details as we get closer to releasing him."

But what about skywarp? Is he being released here at all anymore?
Good news. :)
That's good. I hope Hasbro AU will release it here. :)
Good news for those who don't have it, wonder if they will change the accessories?
Good news.
Hopefully I will be able to get one cheap enough to end up in my Classics display.
This is great news indeed.
Hopefully it's markedly more affordable than the Takara version.
Even though the finishing might not be as good as the Takara one, just getting my hands on one woudl be great.
i'm hoping they won't skimp on anything, like chrome, diecast etc
Good news to me. I missed out on the Japanese one.
Did they die cast either of the seekers?Quote:

Based on the prices for the TRU exclusive ultras, I'd say "a lot". :DQuote:

*sigh* I would've imported a Japanese one, but the toy came out just before my daughter was due to be born so I wasn't in a position to splash out on an expensive Transformer that the time. C'est la vie.
I'm hopeful that this won't be the case with me as well as my wife is due to give birth in early October.Quote:

Here's hoping for an Australian release around the same time *fingers crossed*
