    I take it the clear trailer is suppose to represent when the trailer use to "disappear/subspace" itself in the original series.

    Glad to hear that it's the MP-10 mold. If this goes well, we will probably get a special Platinum Edition Soundwave with ALL of the cassettes, including Ratbat (and if Slugfest and Overkill are in the works) at once.

    That's awesome for people who couldn't find the first one though. I assume there will be some deco changes for Prime as well, but for anyone who missed the TRU one this will be a good second shot.

    Was there QC issues with the original Hasbro Masterpiece Optimus Prime? Debating on waiting for this "Year of the Horse" edition or just drop $300 on the recently re-released version

    You can get Takara MP 10 everywhere, no rush in getting it. There will probably be lots of reissue down the road.... like what they did with the MP01. Wait for the Year of the Horse edition comes out first, then decide whether you still want the MP 10 or not. Lots of people display their Optimus in Robot mode, so the trailer isn't necessary for everyone. I wouldn't display the trailer like my MP04 personally. Let's hope they don't do anything silly with the robot....

    I wouldn't be surprised if this was part of the 30th anniversary line. The first MP was the 25th anniversary Optimus Prime

    Does anyone remember if there were other TFs released under the "Year of the Dragon" line other than Butterfly Prime? Since YOTS Prime was complemented by YOTS Omega Supreme, both from Energon, perhaps a YOTH MP-10 would be released with another YOTH MP as well?

    I'm sorry to hear it's not going to be Armada Optimus. It's been a while since that toy was released.

    It was just the one, but that was the first year. And we've already figured out that the other one for next year is the GIANT starscream re-issue from whatever series that was. People thought it was the MP at first, but turns out it wasn't.

    Wish Tfsource would go ahead and put this up already. Hoping shipping will be a little cheaper than RK.
