It will be interesting to see how popular this is at that price point. It’s not nearly inexpensive enough for me to replace the brilliant (IMO) MP-10, which remains the best TF toy in my collection.

I doubt it is going to $600 for one, if it is then Takara have well and truly lost their marbles. I'd say it is more likely that that price is for 2, so $300 each. Which is still pricey, but I expected around that number.

Not sure why people are freaking out. Yeah, it's expensive, but consider this...
MP01 = 10290JPY
MP10 = 22000JPY
New MP Convoy = 25000JPY
MP10 was over 200% the price of MP1.
MP Convoy Mk III is about 13% dearer than MP10.
I... don't get it.This toy is obviously offering more in engineering in regards to screen accuracy, but that's obviously going to come at a cost. MP36 was about twice as expensive as MP5 and MP Sunstreaker also about twice the price of MP Lambor, yet nobody cared about that.

People are losing it because it looks like it could be 50,000¥ based off what Action Robo have quoted. If it is indeed 25,000¥ then everyone will calm down.Originally Posted by GoktimusPrime

Because we're (us Australians) not paying 13% more than MP-10, we will be paying considerably more than that.Not sure why people are freaking out. Yeah, it's expensive, but consider this...

Are you $#@$#@$@#$@ kidding me?!?!?!?!
Seriously Takara, what the hell?!?!?!?!?!
The other thing, as a youtuber I was watching the other day noted is that BW Megs has very minimal engineering from the looks of things and costs more than MP Dinobot does (yes there's electronics, but no more than MP-36, which was way more complex, and I don't recall that being priced into the stratosphere). MP Convoy 3.0 is a lot more heavily engineered than BW Megs, so based on MP-43's RRP, sadly, a ¥50,000 RRP isn't outside the realms of possibility.

The 50,000¥ RRP has been confirmed now by Loopaza Megastore (a reliable source previously).
