    Reprolabels MP-10 sticker set includes blue, yellow, and red stickers for the eyes.

    Thanks for that info, though if I were going to put stickers on I'd just make my own. If I'm going to change the eyes I'd either paint them or see if I could put something behind them to reflect light better.

    Same here. I'll just disassemble the head and paint the eyes with a red sharpie paint marker like I did with regular MP10.

    I just attempted disassembling the head and couldn't get the halves apart at the bottom. Is there a trick to it or do you just need to keep gently prying?

    Heh, thanks. I already found that video and it seemed like he had an easier time. I guess I'll just keep working on it. :)

    I finally got to tinker with him last night and take a few shots. His optics aren't black like I initially thought. They're the same color as his chest windows, but you can't tell because the shadow of his helmet makes them darker.

    Hopefully mine should arrive this Saturday. The matching black and teal trailer set is on standby.

    Is this guy worth getting if I already have MP10? Thoughts? I’m getting the 7-11 one due to rarity. But 10B doesn’t seem rare. Thanks in advance.

    That's a personal call.

    The question is, do you want a black Prime in your collection? If the answer is yes, then you want this. If it is no then you should pass.

    Unless you're after knowing if this will appreciate considerably in value for future resale. In don't consider these toys an investment in and of themselves. I have plans, oh yes, but not resale. So I'm not the best to advise but I'd say, no. This is the second release, potentially more releases of this will come, I don't think he is rare at all.

    I play with MP10 a lot. But this doesn’t look as cool as Rodimus black

    On this, we agree 100%! I so wish I hadn't passed on black Rodimus. He looks so good!

    I have two of him. One for alt and other for bot. Wish he was made as the Rebuild Version.

    I'm seriously going to have to give Amazon Japan a shot. I bought mine from HLJ for nearly 50% more than that... and I've seen legit versions on eBay with free shipping for less than what I paid. I figured that I was getting a great deal considering every toy show I've attended had several vendors trying to sell this for $300+. Ah well... Live and learn.
