Reissue Hasbro MP Optimus as MP-10

[CaminusPrime]

I for one want this badly, I've just got my YOTH version at the moment. Been ages since i actually got an MP though

I for one want this badly,

If you really want it badly then you don't need to wait for this Hasbro version. I was in Japan just 2 months ago and MP10 was everywhere, and some stores are slashing as much as $60 off the original retail price! (obviously desperate to move dead stock) - so check out Japanese e-stores or if you have any contacts in Japan you might like to ask them to help you out.

↑Roughly $230, which is still not as cheap as Hasbro's MP10 which sold here for $150. But that doesn't mean that the this MP10 reissue will sell at the price, cos remember that Hasbro's MP3 Starscream sold for $99 but then their MP11 sold for $130 or something like that. I guess it depends on how urgently you want the toy... if you want it badly then it's easy to find right now. If not then maybe you can wait and see what the local RRP will be like. MP10 in Japan doesn't look to be selling out any time soon, so there's a fair chance that there'd still be stock around even when Hasbro's version comes out (not making any guarantees of course, just speculating).

So is this the TT or Hasbro colour version?

More curious than interested as I've already got both versions and sure as hell don't need a third version Excluding MP4 as well!

Another MP Variant to add to the list.
The pain, the pain.

Hasbro

I would have thought mp thundercracker or skywarp would come out by now

My mate just posted in his FB he got MP10 in Japan for 10,000 yen (approx 120 aud) but cant but a spare one for me as he have no more room in his luggage

Anyway wonder how much TRU will price this one.

Could have ask him to send to my tenso address and can have it directed to you at minimum cost.

Imo I like the tt blue better. I countered my displeasure by having the tt eyes changed and it looks heaps better overall.

If this piece goes on clearance I grab one to repaint him totally.

...we've had mp-10 released what, twice before (I assume the clear box and our TT mp10 release, remember that?), making this the third one?

I'm hoping its a joke, I really want my seeker collection to be done, they better not be skipping 9 or pushing out this one just to catch people's nostalgia because of the movie coming out because that's low

(If they're calling it mp-10 it must be because collectors know it collectively as mp-10 which was a milestone for the line, that and shattered glass prime was mp10SG which limits choices...)

I would have thought mp thundercracker or skywarp would come out by now

It'll be skywarp unless they decide to re-release thundercracker in the typical hasbro box they use now which would annoy me seeing how I chased down the clear boxed one -_-

Imo I like the tt blue better. I countered my displeasure by having the tt eyes changed and it looks heaps better overall.

Agreed on the TT colors, really need to get to changing mine.

Although hasbro on clearance is mighty tempting...

Anyway wonder how much TRU will price this one.

If they want to be scum like they did when they released TT mp10 $300, or more.

I suppose I'm just a fan of the hasbro version, idk. Just haven't gotten around to get it? Cheers for the links. Ha one day maybe I'll get the hasbro and takara versions

Hasbro's John Warden has done a 2 minute promo video for ToysRUs on their youtube channel, talking up this reissue Masterpiece Optimus Prime toy.

It looks like it is exactly the same as the previous Hasbro version (with blue roller), and as pointed out by someone on TFW, they failed to properly transform their own toy (again), by constantly leaving the panel behind the cab's front wheel, unfolded, so it looks like the truck mode has these giant gaps at the back of the red cab area.
