    The MP does have a fair amount of engineering in it though... but still, not worth paying full RRP for. IMHO MP06 was the last TakTOM MP that was worth paying full price for.
    IMO the best way to collect MPs now is either:
    (a) Pre-order and pay a discounted price
    (b) Wait and see if you can get the toy on sale
    (c) Wait and see if Hasbro releases a cheaper local version

    Not a real action pose, but I ceebs to make a new thread for it.
    TakTOM AM Frumble don't come with any Decepticon logos in robot mode (only in vehicle mode), and Hasbro's Shadow Strike Bumblebee doesn't come with any Autobot logos anywhere -- so I rummaged for some spare stickers and stuck 'em on. The Decepticon logos are from TFP AM Thundercracker (it comes w/ 2 spare Decepticon logos; probably intended for the wings, but IMO the chest logo is sufficient). The Autobot logo is from that set of Autobot logos that comes with Gadep (I previously used another one for TFPRiD Wheeljack). I initially wanted to apply Bumblebee's logo on a part of the robot that wouldn't be visible in vehicle mode, but the mid chest section is too small, the shoulders are small and rounded (making it hard for the sticker to stay on since it keeps wanting to remain flat no matter how much I rubbed it). It can fit on the shin, but then it just looks weird IMO. Also, there's a slight scratch on the yellow stripe (factory error) where I've placed the sticker, so it helps to cover that up.


    It's inexcusably shocking that Hasbro continues to neglect to put logos on toys. You'd think they'd learn after neglecting to put one on Deluxe Knockout, Soundwave and Wheeljack previously... and Animated Voyager Optimus Prime a few years before that. All the Cyberverse toys have tampographed logos, why not all the larger and more expensive figures?!?

    That's a good comparison shot. Ive been eyeing those 3 off for a while now. Ive got regular 'bee, so i'm not as tempted, but Rumble & Frenzy are growing on me.
