$200 in the US means £200 here which is about $308 at the present exchange rate.

As much as I need Thundercracker to complete the original Seeker trio, there's no way I'll pay that much for a repaint, I'll wait and see what the Make Toys Seeker mold looks like instead.

Was browsing ebay and noticed the Hasbro MP Bluestreak on there for £99.....I imported 2 Takara ones for about £80

Picked up my MP-18B Bluestreak yesterday from my parents...he is a thing of beauty.

The colours look fantastic on him.

Great pic!

soundwave,
Congrats!

I got one of mine yesterday and think it's great, if it's my last Takara Autobot then I'm going out on a high as this color scheme is one I've wanted since seeing the colors on the original packaging all those years ago.

Once again the Takara paint app is better than the Hasbro version, but there's really nothing they can do with the crappy design in combined mode!

Menasor still looks terrible with the disproportionate body, but at least the figures shine individually.

Here's my comparison video for the new Takara Unite Warriors UW-02 Menasor set of Stunticons. Again the Takara wins overall in terms of paint application, but the terrible combined mode still ruins it for me. These guys definitely look their best individually! Hope you can check out the vid

The toy colored version of FT Bombshell is set to ship this month, with the cartoon colored one to follow next month.

Be nice to get another new Decepticon mold.

Here's my look at the Perfect Effect upgrade sets for the Combiner Wars sets. If you're into the CW line, these upgrade sets are a must-have!!

All things transformers!!!!

So, some stores have opened preorders for MP Ironhide and he happens to be cheaper (by about $20-30) than the 3P counterparts. I really don't get that.

Why would anyone pay more to get an unlicensed figure having the official one available for cheaper?

To some people the license doesn't matter and they simply want to buy the one they like the best.
