Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

Does anyone have any info on the 2010 mail-away base/stand and how it differs from the one included with Masterpiece MP-1L Convoy?

For those that are interested (and I suspect there will not be many), I have updated my post on how to tell the difference between an original Goodbye Megatron set and if someone has replaced the toys/parts in it.

I have updated the Starscream portion.

This is the post: How to tell if your Goodbye Megatron giftset is genuine/ original?

Have you tried any Toys R Us? I know they sell MP Ghost Starscream, same mold but a deadly $250 not counting the cost of paints to make him into a normal MP SS.

There was a small place on chapel street that had a whole range of masterpieces. Buuuut...I can't remember the name of the place or the exact address. I dont even know if they still have starscream. Jacked up prices too but thats to be expected. When im there next i'll be sure to take note of the address.

Yeh I know a handful of places in Melbourne that stock MP's, including this one on Chapel. It's best if you just bought them online...unless you're prepared to pay the triple/quadruple the asking price.

On a side note, I recently visited that random Bazaar-what's it called on Chapel as well..The one that sells all that vintage and whacky stuff? Anyway they had a really beat up G1 Sixshot with no weapons for $150 plus a few other newer Transformers, including the black Sleep mode? Convoy MP for $200. Not much there, but if you're into weird smells and crazy classic stuff, this store is pretty cool

TRU was where G1 coloured MP Starscream was initially sold in this country. Though they sold out quickly. But at $250 it's probably cheaper to import an MP Starscream yourself!

Silly greedy TRU... those Ghost Starscreams are still shelf warming, right? I hope they keep shelfwarming for a long time to come... haunting TRU!! *rattles.chains*
