just got notice from AmiAmi. Should be here next week. now what to do about that sorry excuse from BadCube

 

For some reason , I get an odd pleasure of putting expired figures in a vice only to be crushed slowly while having MP Megatron watch over the insueing demise . My inner child relishes in such things ...

 

Definitely want to pick this up, but I'm going to put it off for a few weeks. I may be going on my last ever business trip to Japan in February, so I can wait until then and try my luck at the Bic or Yodobashi Camera; or ask a Japanese colleague to order it for me from Amazon JP.

If that doesn't work out, I'll just bite the bullet and order it at vastly inflated European prices. Bleh...

 

You can always order it yourself and send it to your hotel, most shipping was next day and sometimes sameday. I ordered a gundam kit at 4 in the morning and got it by 4 in the afternoon.

 

Really? Holy crap - I hadn't considered that possibility! That's an awesome idea. Will have to ask the Hotel reception when I arrive (assuming I'm going on this trip).

 

Most hotels do over there so it shouldn't be a problem, you might have to ask them how to set up the address, Japanese addresses are funny

 

ah, such a breath of joy in a thread full of pointless negativity!!!

 

Feel grateful that you didn't buy Omnigonix SpinOut. I got a really good deal on it at a toy show, but still, when I got it home, I felt like one of those old cartoons after transforming it.

 

Sunstreaker has arrived. Once again Takara has raised the bar. Now Sunstreaker finally has good reason to claim he is better than the other bots, he is.

 

Really disappointed with the big chip missing from one of the headlights, sloppy paint app and scarring on the chrome intakes. I promised after mp shockwave I wouldnt buy more of their cheap, flimsy crap. Should have listened. Never have this with the mp third parties.

 

Looks like I will pick up the KO. They will probably fix these issues.

 

got a pic?

 

Obviously I'm not the photographer that others are, but I am excited about Sunstreaker. Getting to hang with his bro Sideswipe!

 

Sunstreaker is another solid release from Takara! Hopefully Jazz, Mirage, etc. are just around the corner.

 

Arm missile cannon now available for MP-39 Sunstreaker/KO-MP-39 Sunstreaker/MP-42 Cordon.
It is basically compatible for all current and upcoming versions and repaints of the Sunstreaker/Cordon mold.
It is available in different colors.
MP-39 Sansutri Missile Arm by VF5SS on Shapeways

 

It was originally designed for those who want that weapon for their MP-39/KO MP-39. Also you may be able to get 2 and have him dual wield. Painting them shouldn't be a problem.

 

Yeah. Really strange.
I may have to pick up 5: a spare for cordon, 2 for MP-39, 2 for KO MP-39. That way they can all dual wield them.

 

i finally opened him last weekend and he's amazing; rivals MP Soundwave for my favorite TF. a great birthday present from my father-in-law. He gave me a Michael Jackson vibe with his mask on.
