    I've just done some research and apparently the QC is a lot better on the original Hasbro 20th Anniversary Prime (which I have), so I might just stick with that (:

    Mate, You might recall that I recently acquired an MP-04 from Robot Kingdom & IMO, his QC is beautiful ! I don't know if I got lucky with my example but you shouldn't assume all MP-04's have iffy QC issues.

    Is the Packaging Japanese style, a la MP02 Magnus? Because if it is, and for that price, I'm sure that many an MP04 will sit on shelves for months just like MP02 did, until the price starts to drop.

    I would very much like an MP04, but I dont see much point when I own MP02 already and I am very happy with him.

    I'm a bit peeved, we got frontpaged on seibertron.com (looks at i_amtrunks) it means I'll start seeing the usual Victorian scalpers w/ stuff in their store for $500...

    And I just found out that MP04 originally cost 18,000 yen. That's about $180 AUD these days. If you think about it, that's bloody awesome. I hope we see more of these. But I doubt they'll ever get Megatron b/c of the obvious possibility of our sensationalistic press.

    I really didn't want this to be front paged on the major sites.
    Now we're going to get scalped hard. I HATE scalpers.

    I was at a local Target yesterday & the grand total of MP-04's was... zero

    Anyway, I acquired an MP-04 from Robot Kingdom a little while ago & I'm more than happy with him but honestly, I know there's 1 or 2 people here who are gonna be wiping their Target's clean & flogging them off to the highest bidder...
