    Default Will you be buying the 2014 Hasbro MP-04 Prowl?

    Another Hasbro Masterpiece coming out this year is Prowl, which looks to be similar to the Japanese release.

    The price in America is US$60, which is the same as Grimlock, but should be cheaper here than Grimlock, at AU$100 (around July).

    This. I would have bought the Hasbro version, but,

    1) The Hasbro version wasn't even hinted at being a possibility when the Takara version was released.

    2) Past MP releases have had woeful distribution and availability at Toys R Us making it almost impossible to find one when they are released.

    3) That price is insulting. I imported a Takara version for significantly less than $100. Once you factor in the cost of driving around (time and petrol/wear and tear on vehicle), why would I buy the Hasbro version?

    I already own the TT version.

    Now if the mold was quite different to the TT version, I probably would. Like I did for Thundercracker.

    I got my Takara one for $60 shipped from Japan, then I decided I wanted the missiles and spent $30 on them. One instance I should have gone with the more expensive HK release.

    As for the Hasbro version I wonder if it's so expensive compared to Takara's because Hasbro doesn't have Tomica to get good rates.
