    Seriously guys, try pushing in the chest grill a little bit more, there's no risk of breakage. When it's not pushed in all the way the chest windows don't get held in the flush position and will be misaligned. MP-1's chest on the other hand is always out of alignment cause the pin position is ever so slightly off from where it needs to be.

    Didn't have this issue on my mp4 and mp1.
    Mp-10 is a action figure, is no where pose as great as is with a solid thumb.
    Is only a scale thing that made me buy the mp-10. Having spike or roller does not add any value for me.

    Yes mp-10 is nice, but way overrated . Marked up prices up to $650 is such an insult to mp-1 on eBay

    Back to bee, I am wondering if they have recolours ready for him?

    Only by the "Last Shot" Convoy did they fix the chest issue
    Check this out to see what i'm talking about.

    Here's my MP-10 with the grill fully pushed in:


    And again, with the grill a milimetre away from being fully pushed in:


    I love both of mine, i'm just trying to get the facts out there

    Mp Bumblebee finally arrived ....and I got to say that im pretty disappointed , from eagerly waiting for him to arrive.... When opening him up in alt mode , the scale looked abit off for me... so I put him next to the other mp cars ....and he a few scale smaller !! even in robot mode he is smaller then all the rest.... so I don't see why they didn't scale his alt mode to be consistent with the other MP and then I think in robot mode he still be the smallest around ... With my figure the autobot logo on his chest was really tight and I had to use a pen to push it around , so scare I was going to snap it off. But the figure itself is very well done ... On to spike figure...he is a simple figure but the transformation they made so complex!! and his arm articulation is terrible!

    The scaling of Bumblebee is totally wrong for a masterpiece figure ...

    Just had a look and if the car mode was real life sized, it would be 2.3 inches shorter than sideswipe. I hazard a guess they have gone for robot scale, not car scale.
