Yup that pose says it all for me.

You kinda wonder how this guy is so much cheaper than mp11 sw

Not "limited edition"
I think from reading on here there are collectors who don't give two $h!ts about this guy but the demand will be high in Japan no doubt so a large production run will see prices being maintained at a sane level. Also the production numbers would take into account (to an extent) the collectors who don't live in Japan who they would figure love the JP G1 releases as well as the completist G1 collector as well as the completist MP collector and then you get the casual collector who will think, wow this is cool. The fact that TRU will be importing this is such a positive to the fandom here in Oz. We only got four (maybe five) Ultra Magnuses (Magnii? ) at our TRU and they went pretty quick, I would imagine Star Saber will do the same once word gets out.
He's such a cool item, and I think once the naysayers see him more either in the flesh or in pictures like this they will change their mind.

Oh, is that was it was? Trying to figure out why the foam looked so old for a brand new MP.

Heh, I initially thought the same thing.

I have never followed the cartoon for this. I have wanted a g1 version before but skipped in the end. Glad I waited for this. Is a nice transformer by itself.

This has probably been mentioned before, but I'll mention it again.

That's a mighty big sword.

I got the Victory DVD set and glad I did. the fight between Star Sabre and Deszarus is awesome

lol. Well, it would be embarrassing for him to have a sword name as his name, but just be armed with a butter knife or something.

I can't wait, it looks so damn good. I'm gonna need some alone time after I get mine!
