From various Asian forums/newsgroups, MP-02 will be released again by TakaraTomy in November. Let's hope the QC will be better than the MP-04 we're getting at the moment... :o

grrrrrrr....MP02 = Ultra Magnus?
If they are constantly going to re-release things like the MP's then I hope they have some small difference so you can tell if they are first second or third release products.
mp07 Ultra Magnus Non-Nude edition
i like this re-release I love the paintjob on Magnus far more than Prime even though Prime is a significantly more important toy.
MP07 is Thundercracker dude. :) But yeah, I non-nekkid version would make a re-release more meaningful. I'd maaaaaaybe get it? (depends on price/value) I skipped the first two releases of MP02 (Takara's and Hasbro's Target exclusive) because I felt the straight nekkid repaint wasn't good value - even though the prices we had here were decent.Quote:

Hmm, so its only a rumour at the moment? Once it's confirmed, I'll be selling off my MP-02 ASAP because I paid way too much for it lol
MP-2 just doesn't tickle my fancy... :rolleyes:
Oh yay! Thats like the holy grail for me just like MP-04 before they re-released it again, so if the rumour its true, its totally awesome for me.. :)
While he may be just a white Prime... I wouldn't mind having a Magnus. If the price is right of course.
I got a cheap MP02 from target last time
It wasn't that hard. MP Ultra Magnus were sold at Targets in plentiful supply and I remember seeing them on shelves for quite a while.
do we really need another repaint in the Masterpiece line? Really?!?
How about a new mould, not another half of magnus figure.
Wheres masterpiece Blurr?
Wheres masterpiece Hound?
Wheres masterpiece Rapido?
Wheres masterpiece Fortress Maximus? :)
Me too! $80 from Penrith, it was the only one that hadn't been trashed during the 12-14 months it had been on the shelves!
It is a bit odd that MP-02 is getting re-released, seeing as the market has had a number of MP-01 and 20th Prime re-releases over the past few years.
MP02 made me a fair amount of moolah the first time around.
Let's hope he can do the same again!:)
Yeah so now it's Mp-02's turn. :D Well I supposed it kinda works for people who haven't got it. I got my MP-04 from RK and felt cheated when Target is having it for $179, if only I had waited. So now I'm not gonna pay over $200 for MP-02, I'll just wait for it to be re-released some day.
Oh yay, I just saw the pre-order page too:
http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/p...oduct=TAK10305
But I think I'm gonna wait for RK cause they will probably be cheaper.. :p
so it there a good reason why i shouldnt sell my mp-02 now for big bucks on ebay and then just pick him up in November when he's re-released and in plentiful supply?
i just saw someone selling his MP02 but listing was cancelled after a few days.
Checking completed auctions, Some MP-2's have been going for insane amounts :eek:...
while others are going for bargain rates ($137.50 & this BIN for $110)
My advice - Wait for a bargain :)
Stuff waiting! Buy this one! ;)
that 2nd auction link was a pre-order for the re-release.
hmm i guess I'll sell mine now and pick him up when I go to Japan in November.
Just look at the mp04 problems thread. I'm keeping my mp02 and not taking any chances.
I think it would be highly unlikely that they would actually be producing more of these when they could be making new optimus primes instead. They're probably going to be referbished returns.
