    I'd by an Hasbro MP-10 with nothing but his Ion blaster, honestly.

    From the Hasbro MPs I've bought so far, it seems like the extras are garbage, so I wish they'd start keeping it as basic as possible and break the price down to 40 bucks.

    I really don't think Hasbro would ever go over $100 for the figure.

    Definitely interested in double dipping since US Hot Rod came out so nicely.

    Both Hot Rod and Grimlock had separate, US-only MP items in the form of a crown, firebolt and the big matrix, so I'm sure Optimus will have something new.

    As for the UM business...if the trailer on the japanese release breaks apart and there's pieces left over, maybe hasbro can just include the pieces that sit on him ONLY and leave the rest out to cut down the cost? And probably combine the armour parts together for some crappy "Attack mode platform" for box pictures.

    You read it here first :p

    As long as it's in rich red, not pink or tomato color like previous Hasbro OP.

    I can't help it, I really would rather have the trailer. I love Roller, he's like the Wall-E of the Transformers universe.

    But at a $60 price point, I could be tempted otherwise.

    I'd get it as described if that was the way it came. Kinda doubt Hasbro would go the full bright/flat cartoon color route on the first western release of that mold though.

    If they paint the eyes blue and have exclusive accesories that I want like mentioned here by the OP, all for 50-80 bucks, yes. However, the trailer actually seems like something I can play with even though it adds probably 70$ or more to the price.

    Probably not. I'm still very happy with MP-01 and none of the hypothetical accessories interest me enough to spend the $60 - $80 on it. But I am far more likely to buy something like that than I would be to waste $250 on the Takara version of MP10.

    Probably. I'm a little scared by what they mean "a lighter tone of red". It'd suck if it was that pinkish plastic like on DOTM Sentinel Prime.

    But I'm down for a $60 MP-10.

    Hate to say it but I'm perfectly happy with my MP-01 so I'd pass on a US Optimus MP-10 just like I passed on the current MP-10. If they give him armor to make Ultra Magnus or Powermaster Optimus (I'm fine with a different transformation leading to a similar look) then I'll bite, but as it is it's an easy pass.

    As awesome and accurate as mp-10 is, I like mp-01 because I think he is what I think an mp should be, with all his diecast and size. Still, as I said, I really love mp-10's accurateness of g1 prime so they r good in different ways.
    Unfortunately I don't have neither of the mp primes
    :( 
    But since I missed out on hasbro prime v1 he is a must buy!

    Someone quick tell hasbro!! lol! :)

    I've got MP-10 and I'll buy whatever they bring over here.

    I will say that for those who just want one Prime but both humans, that's a very frustrating situation. I think they should all have come with both to begin with.

    Magnus with grown up Spike would be cool. I was going to suggest he include Sparkplug, but I think Sparkplug was dead at that point. Maybe? I don't remember.

    Anyway, jetpack would be cool. I'll repeat my constant desire to have seen a Diaclone "inch-man" done in scale with MP-Prime. I'd even love yellow eyes, but I wouldn't want other fans to be disappointed with that.

    Would I pick it up? Of course. However, I prefer having Prime with his trailer and will most likely be buying the Takara version and if I am lucky enough to find the MP in stores I will purchase that also.
