    Ahh good, semi-confirmation.

    I'll take 1 in each of as many colors as you care to offer.

    TRU/bro screwed people on distribution of MP-10, I will gladly buy a KO instead of the BS inflated cost he is selling for because he was handled so poorly at release.

    I'm fairly certain that the moving wipers are actually a gimmick [of sorts] already on MP-10. As for the lightpiping, I hope not. More likely, you're just seeing the breakdown of the MP-10 head design. The eyes are a separate piece from the rest of the head, best I recall.

    Anyway, I'd prefer a KO Sentinel Prime using the MP-10 mold.

    So it's not JUST a KO, it's an improvement.

    We still got lots of Hasbro MP-10 in Singapore though, just that the pricing here are already marked up higher compared to the USA's price.

    Exactly, and Euro has them all shelves too, the US got fucked on his release, I had my order canceled and I never saw him on a shelf. So I have no problem giving my money to a KO company when Trubro decided to screw the fans.

    It says: Prominent position in a variety of large outlet

    Could it be articulation?

    They NEED to do a white version. If anyone can get in touch with them to tell them they'll make a mint.

    Color me interested! I actually hope they scale him down just a bit, but I doubt it... Also, hope he comes with the trailer

    That translation was relating to the various marks from the sprue.
