Chris McFeely:
...holy crap.
Dys:
What a random event. We hardly ever get the big ticket exclusives.
Takara_destron:
What a pleasant suprise. May pick him up if I have the cash.
Swoop:
Jebus.
Argos rather than Asda though??
DJCHARTERS:
i am livid. i only just bought mp skywarp (takara) last week. i could have saved myself at least 30 quid
Bass X0:
whats the code and the cost?
Looks like its £39.99 maybe £59.99?

It's £59.99 - 387/4336
I guess the Walmart price will be $59.99
Bass X0:
Its not in any stores around me.
okay, i found one at a place i sometimes go to but since i can't drive its too far to go by myself.

Same with me
Might just have been an early delivery in this case
ersico:
i don't have any masterpieces, so this may sound like a dumb question....is he worth a 59.99 price tag?
thanks
Rodentus prime:
It's available for collection at the end of the week in southampton by the looks of it, pity we never know if/when this stuff gets released domestically which is why I bought him ages ago.

They're not without their flaws, but in my opinion, those flaws are far outweighed by the sheer awesomeness of the figures themselves. So to answer your question, yes, very much so.
ThundeR-CrackeR:
Woot! This means that we have a 5%chance of him showing up in Danish Toy'rus's ...
Well hopefully he will..

I have MP Optimus, Megatron and WalMart Starscream. $59.00 is worth it, but I think you can do better. Starscream was 48.88 I believe and then he went on clearance for like $35.00. I'll wait for the price to lower.
Gingerchris:
Personally I'd rather it had been Starscream. As awesome as the mold is I dunno if I'd want to shell out £59.99 for it.
MrFX:
How amazingly RANDOM!

yes it is, i got my takara version for 120 shipped a while ago, and i don't regret it one bit, and they are close to the "cartoon scale" of the alts. which i usually display with my MPs
and if starscream is any indication, i wouldn't wait for a sale, most people couldn't find ss at retail
Bgrngod:
Whaaaaaat?!?! Score +1 for the Brits!
(Selfish statement): Damn, I hope this doesn't have an impact on inventory over here, thus reducing my chances of getting one. DAMN YOU BRITS!
Do want. $59.99 seems like a ridiculous price to me.
mttyns:
Is this the first seeker masterpiece we've had over here, or was starscream a TRU exclusive at some point (my memory plays tricks with my increasing age)? Might get him - my local Argos can order it in.
Megatronwp38:
Very cool! Did the UK get SS two years ago?
SS was $59.99 then too so that price for Skywarp was pretty much expected.

I don't think Starscream ever came here sadly

no sadly out Walmart/Asda stores didn't follow up with the exclusives.
Recall:
$59.99 isn't the same as £59.99
£59.99 = $95.
Its a shame ROTF Devastator is £100, thats like a 100% mark up compared to the $100 price tag in the US

true. but the americans wont be charged $95 due to the direct conversion thing that happens, where an item that cost $10 will cos £10 and visa versa. they're now guaranteed to get MP Skywarp for $59.99
Sledgehammer:
Sixty sheets...hmm. It's strange, but if it were a tenner less, I'd be more inclined to nab him. Not saying I won't anyway, but there you go.
ghowildseven:
Does that mean we'll be getting these in the States any time soon?
Triggerhappy:
I'll wait for that to be reduced then.... BAM that's mine! Nice news!!

He'll probably get sold out, never to be seen again, before he gets reduced.
Agent-GHQ:
Was there any particular reason why his nosecone is not purple? Same for Starscream.
Locustreign:
I keep looking around for him near me on the website.
Then I realise I have him twice.
D'oh!
bsutton1:
He may be cheaper over here. MP Starscream was $50 in the US.

No. I paid 59.99 for him at my Wal*mart.
You guys were lucky then. He was a b$%ch to find around here and I only saw him the 1 time i purchased the two for $59.99. Then I never saw him again.
batcam11:
i like Skywarp a lot,too bad i cant get him in the Netherlands even Ebay doesnt send well one for 150$ ...but are you insane too buy that?

frilly toothpick:
i really hope i can find him when he's released in the states.
Bass X0:
Until the 20th, there is a 20% discount and is available to be reserved at your local store.
I reserved today and can pick up my £45 Skywarp on Saturday.
aussiehippy:
I just did the same!
So, order today, pick up at weekend, if you want one for a reasonable price
