Once I get Golden Lagoon Optimus I'll have every one of these except the elusive Green BAPE. I couldn't imagine doing it again! Would be worse than having to rebuy all the seekers once the inevitable V3 Starscream is announced!
    Maybe what they could do is do variants on the previous niche repaints.
    Paint it in silver instead of gold and you have Hate-Plague Protected Optimus Prime.
    MP10-version Ultra Magnus hasn't been done, so why not replace Black/Nemesis Prime with white/Best Friends Forever Optimus Prime! Or alternately, make it all black.
    Instead of 7-11 Optimus Prime, they could do a Family Mart one instead.
    BAPE has been done, so maybe Angelic Pretty next time.
    Instead of Evangelion deco Prime, Death Note Prime. Or better yet, combine 2 renowned unpleasant fanbases and make it Love Live! Prime.

    I suppose technically 7-11 Prime isn't Ultra Magnus but it's going to be the closest we'll get.

    I agree with the cross-over stuff. Evangelion and Street Fighter was funny, not my jam but it was cool to see.

    It comes down to personal preference. I prefer soft plastic myself. The silicone type but I've heard it gets hard over time so needs replacing. It's not as heavy as die cast but around the 600cc a piece is about right. Now, the purest say silicone doesn't have the same feel as the real thing but that's a highly inflated opinion. I admit that I can't tell the difference by looking at it. Glad I got that off my chest.

    Takara
    Hasbro
    Nemesis
    Ultra Magnus
    Shattered Glass
    YotH (unlikely)
    Evangelion
    Various BAPE
    Golden Lagoon (unlikely)

    Any I miss?
    I wouldn't mind a Lucky Draw inspired Crayola Convoy as a 1st reissue of this new mould.

    So this happened....

    If this is true, the RRP prior to discounts will be 50,000¥!

    Masterpiece collecting is starting to feel kinda like those awful mobile games that suck people in for free early on and then increasingly bleed them until people give up.

    Don't know if I can keep ordering doubles of these.

    Other news from this is that it's been designated as MP-44 and will be released in August 2019.

    Hmmm. For that much I could get most of the years CHUG toys and feel a lot less buyers remorse. If there are not massive discounts on him I'm out.
