    I found this on my fb news feed. Thought someone might find this of interest. Sorry if its old news. I would consider this a rumour of course.

    MP 10 POSSIBLE USA RELEASE
    Based on reliable sources., your ever popular MP 10 CONVOY is going to have his USA debut either late this year or early next year. The announcement would then be made at this year's BOTCON. It is slated to retail at $ XXX.00 USD. Sorry my source didn't want me to divulge any further info. But apparently it would be affordable. So stay tuned for more.......

    My guess if this is comes true affordable means no trailer.
    Purely my speculation of course.

    Also guessing April Fool's, though it'll probably come out here eventually.

    Praying this isn't an April Fool's joke, but I'd be less skeptical if the president asked me to golf with him today.

    If it does come out this year, it will probably be a holiday item. Part of me hopes it does come out here, but I know if it does, it will be without a trailer. And, in my opinion, you really need a trailer with this....at least I do.

    well, this could also be good guesswork. Hasbro's certainly going to release it here, probly for this christmas without the trailer and it will likely be announced at botcon, so...

    I expected a giant "April fools" as soon as i clicked on this.

    Not convinced yet.

    But look at what it said

    " XXX.00 USD"

    Three digit price point.... IF it's true, maybe that means the trailer is being released as well?


    I'm still taking this with a big pinch of salt mind you.

    I'd put money on april fools but I'd be interested in this if it were real and came with the trailer

    Also..... if it is $100...that would make a (TRU) UK release 100GBP, which would probably mean a limited UK release.

    If any.

    But right now, i've a lot of doubts about the whole thing.

    If the U.S MP10 Prime is under $100 and come with a trailer, I'm going to have a hard time debating to purchase for my 4 year old son or not. MP10 is beautiful. Hopefully, I don't have to make that decision.

    *But then again, if they sell and repaint as a white Magnus, it will be mine regardless of the price, ehhee*

    I'll petition them not to. It would seriously devalue all the Takara MP 10's and be an offense to everyone who bought them, the true fans of Transformers everywhere.

    The guy who originally posted this on FB ('Toy Nirvana') is saying that according to his source, the trailer will be included. He's also insistent that it's not an April Fools and that his source has been '95% accurate' in the past.

    XXX.00 $?? Good one, USD prices ALWAYS end up on .99 unless they are on sale or clearance.

    If this is true I'm all in, been waiting for a US release of MP10 for a while now. If it does come with the trailer thats even more amazing. But I'll believe it when I see it.

    I think that was meant more for an idea of how many figures we would be looking at, not an actual price ending in (.00). I really hope this is true so I can add him to my shelf!
