    Strangely I haven't... @Alloy Alchemist actually requested it of me and I'm sorry to say I let it slip by and never got around to it! I also felt like @TigerBlade's custom (don't have a pic at the moment), while more than just a repaint, kinda made such a digibash obsolete, though if I get some time maybe I'll still knock it out!

    Toys could be close to his kitchen. Oils from a pan go airborne and make a dust that can be REALLY hard to clean.

    I want to get my hands on the MP-44 mold. But I don’t want Nemesis Prime. I have MP 10B I like the heft that MP-10 has for an evil prime. I want a new Traditional Optimus to go against my MP-36. I don’t want the trailer and extra bits. So this would be the next best thing.

    I’m pretty sure the MP-44+ toy repaint will most likely include the trailer and be more expensive than 44 because it will be a TT Mall exclusive limited release like MP-36+. 36+ was $20 more than regular 36 I believe. The trailer for 44 has all the toy detailing inside so I think they would want to use it with sticker style tampos.

    I don’t believe Takara will ever release a toon or toy based Prime without the trailer. They will do Bape repaints etc. without the trailer but they were expensive for the MP-10 mould.

    Sorry to be a negative Nancy but that’s how I see it.

    Not negative at all. I completely agree with this. I expect 44+ to inevitably be ¥55,000 msrp. Hopefully it’s around $390 or so at Asian based stores like Robot Kingdom.

    Have you tried washing the dust affected area with warm soapy water?

    Hmmm they only mention Beyblade, Dual Masters, Zoids Wild, Fortnight and Pokémon. A surprise TF announcement would be sweet though.

    Wait a minute, didn't they lose the Pokémon license last year?

    They lost it stateside.

    I think they might show EarthRise stuff but not MP, all the other lines they're showing are aimed at kids. Still it's a hobby event and in Japan, hopefully they'll show new MP's.

    So, this is totally left field and might not mean anything at all, but it IS speculation. I finally went to see Rise of Skywalker last week and one of the preview commercials had a Porche ad that blended their car with Star Wars visuals and I wondered if that might be something that we could use as fodder for a possible Jazz or CJ. It might be nothing, and I'm probably wrong, but does anyone else think this might hold water?
