Hey guys,
Just wondering if you guys know whether this dude (Takara MP-03 Starscream) is being re-released?
Just noticed a whole bunch of them on ebay.com, esp sellers from HK.

I don't know but I suspect it might've been a result of the fact taht w/ the Hasbro version, the MP03 has just entered forgotten status. He was for awhile a toy that was a compromise - you got it only if you could tolerate the paint job. It's the one MP I will never have. I love the box but that's about it.
I suspect down the line Takara may yet re-issue him w/ better paint apps but that could be some time away. I'm pretty sure the next MP will be a new mould (well, that's what I said about MP07 too) so it'll at least be MP09 though I think a perfect MP-Convoy w/ Roller can't be too far behind in that queue too.
whoops!!!
wrong thread lol:p
This toy has already been released 3 times.
+ MP Starscream ("Greenscream")
+ Hasbro MP Starscream
+ MP Starscream "USA Edition."
...that's plenty IMO. :P
Haven't heard of an offical re-release. Considering MP-07 Thundercracker is coming soon I don't think a release now would make sence. But I have been wrong before.
i bet greenscream is super rare in years to come
You mean ones that haven't snapped yet? ;)
being rarer doesn't necessarily mean being more valuable. I see Hasbro's version (and the USA Edition) becoming more valuable in the future because there's this thing called demand. :)
Bumblejumper is really rare, but not as valuable as you'd think because there's relatively little demand for that toy (especially before DW retconned him as an official character in retro-G1 continuity ;p)

Actually, BJ isn't _that_ rare. I mean, he ain't common, but he's far more common than some of the Actionmasters and most later Japanese G1 toys.
For a Minibot, he's rare.
exactly
im right again :)
Id also consider Bumblejumper super rare
