    As someone who missed out on Buster, I'll just be happy to have the Revenge Prime.

    I do REALLY like that Nemesis Prime, too. Love the colors on him.

    Good enough for me. Bonecrusher is about tall enough for Battle Blades Optimus to stab him in the throat like in TF1

    I wonder if this Revenge Prime is gonna have the no face plate variant like MB-11. And will it once again be packaged in vehicle mode? I really need a Prime with the cool eyes with his mask.

    Went to check on my MB preorders at HLJ, only to find TLK Crosshairs somehow snuck into stock early.

    I hope Nitro doesn't come in early too. I had unexpected medical bill this week and am reeeeaaaallllyyy tight on funds until next week.

    It's a glorious day when robo-boner becomes another excuse to buy another Optimus Prime figure

    I've got my eye on Takara Hound AND the Dr Wu weapon.

    Anyone else think maybe someone at Takara caught wind of those Dr.Wu sets and thought "hey, we can do that"?

    Shit. I went to preorder the 2nd wave on AmazonJP and they're not shipping these to the US. Hopefully it changes, but when it does, we'll probably be screwed out of the lower prices.

    It really sucks cause all of the Movie the Best preorders from the first wave in February are all able to preorder.

    Edit: I reported the issue on MB-17's product page, hopefully they fix it.

    Good luck. I reported the issue with LG Windblade like 3 times and it's still not fixed.

    Looked at the one already released. He's definitely green, and the paint is different than the upcoming one. So green with minimal smeared wear paint versus gray with detailed wear paint.

    Fair enough, I've only seen dark grey ones so far.

    Isn't it amazing how much paint makes a difference.
    I like these.

    Are we still at a loss as to why MB-17 is so expensive? HLJ seems to list out the exact contents, which doesn't justify $40+ more than MB-11.

    Nah I'm sure it was planned but I'm pissed they didn't use this grand opportunity to mold a battle mask head.

    Nice. But it seems LG Windblade still isn't eligible for Global Shipping.
