The reissued Masterpiece Gen1 Optimus figure comes out in America after SDCC at the end of the month, but it has already been found at ToysRUs in Canada, so could show up here soon too (if we are getting it).

The packaging confirms that Hasbro are using TakaraTomy's Masterpiece numbering, with this one labelled as MP-10. The question now is, will there be one labelled as MP-9, or is this just copying the Japanese number, just for convenience (and so that it doesn't confuse fans as much as a new MP number for the same mould would do).

The price just keeps getting more and more expensive for each release of this figure too... now at about US$200, which would be at least AU$300 if we get it here.
