    Probably factory time, also I'd imagine Asian holidays factor into things a bit too. Hasbro and Takara are both dropping a lot of different products all in a shrinking amount time all from the same factories.

    When I preordered, I was under the impression that it was a Takara product and not a second run from Hasbro.

    Man this guy seems nice. Any chance of a reissue that’ll happen or is there anywhere I can get him for a cheap price?

    I live in Japan myself but from what I've read on these boards, their international shipping is very reasonable. EMS shipping for bargain prices, basically.

    They don't ship everything internationally though, so you'd need to try and check out.

    You've got an account already?

    I don’t have an account. But considering Yen to AUD is pretty great I could take it.

    I don't think the price will change anytime soon but there's only 1 figure left in stock. If you want to get the figure I'd suggest placing an order asap.

    Sorry if this has been asked before, but are the wings still molded in clear plastic and painted over on this version, or are they made of some less fragile material? It's a big selling point for me.

    The wings are the smokey clear plastic on MP-20 painted over.

    Thanks, if that’s so I don’t feel a need to replace my original release. I like how it looks better, for the most part.

    Will the original suffer yellowing?

    Probably since it’s bare white plastic. MP-20+, being painted white, has some protection from UV. Still I wouldn’t leave MP-20+ outside all day though.

    The biceps are still unpainted on 20+, so could also become yellow over time.
