Just jumped on and saw this and I was blown away at this release, never thought it would happen. Really exciting!
However... I missed out on PC, it showed as available but as usually happens it was sold out when I go to checkout. Now it shows as sold out. I dont know how you guys manage to buy on that site! Well done!
That reminds me... at BotCon a few months ago, I asked the main Hasbro guy (Jerry) - Masterpiece Coneheads retooled from the MP Seeker mould, is that something Hasbro can pressure TakaraTomy to do as they modified it once already?
His reply to me was - It's on our wish list, but nothing is planned.
That was four months ago, and with Hasbro claiming to not know about Generations changes or additions in Japan (like Groove and Devastator), it is possible that they didn't know about it back then for him to not be lying to me about it.
And since it is only four months ago, it is too recent for my query to be any sort of catalyst, as Jerry was taking notes of my questions and suggestions and seemed genuinely interested in MP Coneheads since that Seeker mould has been their most successful of the Masterpiece line.
Either way, it is pretty exciting to see Ramjet... and expect Dirge and Thrust later, to fill out the Decepticon MP ranks.
...and they're gone.
Kranix: It did the same thing for me when I went to the checkout but I kept plugging at it, adding it to cart, having it say sold out, adding it to cart again, until finally it let me through to the next step and paid no problem.
If you're really keen on one from PC that's the way to go![]()
Dammit I missed out. Oh wells, sure as they'll release more of these than just 2000. I mean, they spent time and money doing a retool, they will release more of this mold
OMG can't wait!!!![]()
Just noticed that his head cone isn't the jet nose, disappointing but I'll still grab one if PC re-opens orders
Most awesome disappointing news fora ages. Awesome because Taktom are finally making a Conehead, disappointing because now we finally get one he is limited and really expensive, I mean he's more pricey than the unofficial version.
Me too, but if this toy remains limited and $200 then maybe it's back to 3rd party for me, they appear to be significantly cheaper and not limited.![]()
