    They called it a crown coin (as in a coin with a crown embossed on it), they never said it transformed.

    Notice they are both quoting TFSource, not Hasbro. Hasbro never said it would transform.

    good thing I read this thread before I bought the coin online. otherwise I would've thought I was duped as well. The embossed black case ( supposedly a coin shape) contains the crown indeed inside - hence Crown coin... but I do wish they made a coin as well . The crown is nice and all but I'm more into getting a coin as well since there's been a lot of these coins lately ive been getting it all and Im down to my last so far - the MP Nemesis Prime coin left to get.
    I like the sleeve flame effect too. Although it negates the light up feature of the figure as the sleeve isn't translucent.

    I received mine this week. I like the flame sheath but I am disappointed with the fact that the "coin" is really not a coin. In fact I think that the word "coin" is the misleading word in the description. The crown comes in a box. The box is black plastic that is cyllindrical, hollow inside and has particular words and shapes similar to previously released MP coins. But it's still a box.

    I got mine from ebay but the description was cut and pasted. I jumped on it because, like others here, I am collecting the MP coins, and I don't want to wait until supply drops and I have to pay $50+ for one. The flame sword sheath is cool (not $30 cool, but still cool) however, had I known that there wasn't actually a coin, I wouldn't have bought it.
