    I think I'm going to limit myself a little bit to stop wallet explosions:

    *Legends Wheelie because he looks awesome and can hold a Titan Master.

    *Deluxe Chromedome looks really G1 and not IDW and I like that, and he can hold his Titan Master fully enclosed.

    *Voyager Galvatron. SO AWESOME AND G1!!!! Also, look at my Username .

    *All the Titan Masters, because I love the fact you can swap heads and they will be cheap (well, for Transformers anyway).

    *Deluxe Blurr, pretty much the same reasons as Chromedome.

    *I want Fort Max, but I'm trying to limit myself, and I think I'd need to sell my Metroplex to get him.

    9 times out of 10, they don't show store exclusives, unless it is something impressive to pad out the display (and not actually pitch to retailers). In the past we've had some of the Masterpiece toys included in the Toyfair Displays (like Grimlock a couple years ago), and the Masterpiece line is usually mentioned in their slide show presentation (as one of the items aimed at the older demographic), so it is telling that they didn't include it anywhere this year.
    Something I'll have to remember to ask at the Australian Toyfair this year.


    At least for Australia, if Hasbro (America) stop producing Masterpiece toys (because ToysRUs overprice them to the point of being unsellable), we should still have some of the Japanese ones be imported here in Australia.
