Just thinking about the cost of MP figures compared to the cost of their original counterparts, with the cost of the originals adjusted for contemporary standards and MP prices are based on full Japanese RRP (as opposed to the discounted pre-order prices that we usually pay). We can see...

* MP Lambor is 200% dearer than the original Sideswipe toy.
* MP Beast Convoy is 221% dearer than the original Ultra Optimus Primal toy.
* MP Soundwave is 356% dearer than the original Soundwave (although much cheaper if you got the Hasbro version locally)
* MP11 Starscream is 433% dearer than the original Starscream
* MP10 is 462% dearer than the original Optimus Prime toy.
