    It's no problem and no need to apologize. Takara had their own decos for the entirety of transformers history up until two years ago (and except for exclusive sets of course). There was a whole thing with MPM Ironhide where a lot of people waited longer and paid a lot more for the same figure from Takara because they were POSITIVE that Takara would release a better product. Turns out it was exactly the same.

    While I def don't have the figure, I will hazard that they are plastic. No official MPM figures up to now (from MPM-3 to current at least) feature rubber tires

    Yeah that’s what I assume too but in some pictures the tires look very matte colored and so I thought maybe they weren’t plastic

    The inevitable KO may very well have rubber. No guarantees there but it has happened with some frequency.

    If you're looking to unload one, I've been looking for one to become available. :D

    People on these boards really need to start crediting their sources. You created a feeding frenzy over a pic that wasn't even yours! I almost messaged you myself asking to buy one.

    They'll show up (at an inflated price) somewhere looooooooooong before BBTS gets them. Honestly I bets Hasbro Pulse gets them before BBTS does. For this particular figure I'm probably paying the mark up (depend how early he shows up- nothing worse than paying extra to only get him a week early). Can't wait to get him!

    I don't know why, but for a moment I thought the one at the bottom it's MPM Sideswipe

    Whatever at least say it’s not your pic, or write a little more than what you wrote.

    Toys R Us here in Canada still has Jazz listed as an August 1st release date, so maybe there's hope we'll get him soon?
