It's a good thing Radiant Silvergun was announced for Xbox Live. That saves me $120-150 I had planned to eventually spend on the original version.

I'm not waiting any longer than I have to to get this awesome toy.
waiting a extra 8+months for the hasbro version will be pure torture.
anyways hasbro has a bad track record of doing re-mods,takes accessories away from the MP TF toys. example 20TH/25TH/MP Primes small smoke stacks. TRU/MP Hasbro grimlock's no waiter accessories & filed down dino teeth.

It is a big deal to delay quite a long term. I guess that the long period of time may change lots of fans' choice.
Tigermegatron
I don't mind paying the big bucks for extremly made TF toys like Takara MP Rodimus prime clearly is. heck i'll most likely be buying 2 maybe 3 of it.
Honestly,What I hate is spending money on cheaply made/cheaply priced TF toys that are pure garbage.

I don't live in the States. But this is a really neat price, €103 for the toy, ex shipping! Only problem for ordering: how much is the thing weighing for the shipping costs? All must be payed in advance. That's holding me off right now for the ordering. Don't want a bill in a couple of months for the extra shipping charge.

Well I hope to lock him up through you I have done business with you before and I have been very happy with my purchases. I just have to many weddings and birthday's this month to commit before this month ends.
Sidecutter
I'll take pre-orders as long as I have some to offer. Of course, the more people that lock it in by the end of the month, the better idea I'll have on what to order, so the more I'll have to offer.

damn $200 is steep gonna have to wait on the Hasbro version
Trailbreaker77
Damn Sidecutter I would jump all over this but I don't have the funds right now. I hope you will still be taking pre-orders when I get the extra cash.

Dude…that's gonna be a kick in the teeth…
On the plus side, I too am not in a rush to get MP-09 Rodimus.
January 2011 it is then!

Hmmm.. Looks a bit dull. I don't know. The design aesthetic is kinda meh for me… :/
Sidecutter
Damn, they beat me by a whole ten cents!
OK, I'll bite. I'm offering this for $187 on pre-order then!

The 199 price makes the fansproject Rodimus seem more appealing to me. I'll wait for the eventual Hasbro release.
mikeflosi
199 are you out of your mind! Well I'm SOLD LOL

I want to pick up Roddy so bad, but at $200 he just doesn't seem worth it to me.

Since I am currently living in Asia I'll see if I can find it near my home or make a brief trip to Japan and buy it there. In any case this toy is mine even if I have to pay $200 for it.
Burnout
wow from 100 something to 200 this one is by the wayside no way im dropping that for this.
LifePincher
PredaKing stays in my preorder.
I love G1 and MP's, but Rag Rod and Ragimus Prime can go jump into a lava pit along with Wheelie and Blurr….. all while holding hands
Really hate those characters. I will never own any of those, no matter how good they make them.
