I'm only missing two Takara main line MP's. MP-1 and MP-3, kinda want them to finish off the set (I went with the Hasbro versions of them back in the day). Are they coming down in price since they have been replaced by MP-10 and MP-11?
I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.
How much is Binaltech BT-17 Black Convoy worth at a price that someone insane would buy it?![]()
Short answer would be No. At least not for MP-1. If anything it still seems to be quite sought after - in Asia at least.
I've been hunting for one for a while and the 2 I have encountered recently (one here in HK and another in Tokyo) have been significantly more expensive than I would have thought. Hence I didn't buy them.
No idea about MP-3 - Can honestly say I've never seen one new or second hand in stores here.
Year of the Dragon Optimus Prime - worth getting? Yes/No?
What would a reasonable/expected price for new in box be?
Well it looks like Toys R Us cleared all previous Hasbro MP listings. I would like to know what the price tags were for when they were released here. Below I listed what I think they were but if anyone can confirm, that would be great! (I need this information for something special)
Clear box Optimus Prime (MP-10) ($150?)
Clear box Thundercracker (MP-11) ($100?)
MP-02 Soundwave ($150?)
MP-03 Grimlock ($130?)
MP-04 Sunstorm ($100 or 150?)
MP-05 Prowl ($100 or $130?)
MP-06 Bluestreak ($130?)
MP-07 Starscream ($150?)
MP-03 Grimlock and MP-04 Sunstorm both retailed at $130.
