    Same here. Thought I'd only be able to get YOTH Prime to get this mold at a decent price, and now I have the "original!"

    Is it just me but the blue on reissue looks darker than the tru version. I might be crazy but when I look at mine, it's darker same with roller. Anyone else?

    Is that true, is the blue somewhat darker than the original TRU version? I always felt the Takara was too dark, and Hasbro too light!

    Mine was shipped out by Robotkingdom on 24.10., still not here. More than 6 weeks now. They shipped out another order the same day, arrived a week later. My local post tracking site updated on 21.11, saying the order hasnt even arrived in my country yet. Anyone else who had a similar problem with RK? I'm afraid the package wont arrive at all and I wont get any money back. I contacted them about two weeks ago, they said they open a case at the Hongkong post, but I don't expect that to help at all, havent heard anything about it since then.

    I was considering getting this reissue (i think BBTS currently has it, so that's the one i'm talking about). I was wondering if this reiusse still has the loose ankle issue like the original TRU release. Thanks in advance for the reply.

    I read somewhere that there was supposed to be a re-issued MP-10 with light-up eyes and Matrix. Was that just a false rumor?

    I can't speak for the whole run of course, but the ankles on mine are solid, not loose at all :) 

    Pretty sure that's a rumor, never heard anything about a re-run with electronics, and it would be a big thing so I doubt that I've misses it.

    Not a reissue but rather a 3rd party add on.

    No issues with mine at all, only the Matrix issue where I had to remove the core and reseat it so the chest would close. Ankles are nice and tight.

    Yup, add on kits.
