Bear in mind that the retail price for MP Hound was $240. Some people may have paid even more including freight.

While I'm super happy that you got your MP Hound at a cheaper price, I think it pays to be mindful of a toy's original RRP when appraising its value for money, as that's what the majority of consumers probably paid. I got my MP Forty-Four at a ridiculously cheap price (bought it second hand from a friend; so got super good mate's rates), but whenever I appraise that toy I'm always mindful of it's max RRP, not the price that I paid.

How would you feel about MP Hound if you'd paid $250 or more for it? I quite like my new MP Convoy, but I must confess that I most likely wouldn't like it as much if I'd paid full quid. I like both of these MPs, and I like MP Arcee too... but I don't think any of them are worth full price. If you can get them at a discounted price either through pre-order earlybird discount or later discounted prices, fantastic - and I would recommend that. But I can't say that recent MPs have been worth the manufacturer's recommended price.
