    Are you kidding me? MP24 is Star Saber?

    it says 3-15-2015 for MP-24 Masterpiece Star Saber at 18000JPY.

    So that means after 30% off on AE its about $126 + shipping like UM.

    Looks like preorders will be going up shortly then.

    I'm stoked.

    Takara have lost the plot. MP-23 a repaint and MP-24 a fan choice winner.

    Neato. Looks like he's getting a numbered release. I kinda like that as it sets precedent for future subseries of G1 outside of Season 1, 2, and 3 to be included. Also, if he's MP24 it means I can have a few months to save up cash after Wheeljack and Bumblebee are released, as I stick to Season 1 Masterpiece characters.

    Cool. Irrationally glad he's a numbered release instead of this one-off special crap that never made much sense to me.

    Price is pleasing too.

    I'd be even more excited if there will be a Victory Leo in the future to combine with this guy.

    Lol, its going to be a lean purchasing time for me, MP21 is the last purchase I've made and I have no interest in anything that has been released since all the way to MP24. Good for the guys who want this stuff though.

    DELUXED SIZE?

    Except that this promises to be a great Masterpiece.

    Let's not forget for those who live in Asia i.e. much of the world Star Saber is quite well recognized.

    I like the figure, I'll get it BUT I don't like the fact it's getting a numbered release (same goes for Exhaust which I won't get). This is what I feared when they announced the MP fan's choice: the door is now open to release any character from pretty much any line/media in the main MP line which I wouldn't be agaisnt if it didn't mean we would get less original G1 cartoon characters.

    How many people don't understand or know what this is, but still feel compelled to chime in? Pretty funny actually.

    This is the third post I've seen tonight complaining that Star Saber is ruining the MP line by de-G1-ifying it.
