    I guess what you’re saying is that SS has better scale than MPM. Hahahaha nope.

    Just look at SS Optimus and him next to SS Ironhide. It’s the same problem with MPM-4 and 6 but far worse.

    But in general, studio series are more "scale accurate" than the mpm line.

    Said very well.

    I assume @ReadyParzivalOne 's post was directed at me. Honestly, I was not preaching or telling anyone they are wrong, just illustrating my logic in the hope it may help someone else make a decision on their own logic to follow.

    Your toys; you enjoy what you like :)

    I couldn't even find starscream on target.com, can you help explain the 30% discount you're talking about?

    Amazon Japan I think. You can buy it off AJ and ship it to the US and it'll sometimes still be cheaper than just buying it in the US. I also think they have a 30% discount on a lot of Masterpiece figures (or just Transformers in general, I can't remember for sure)

    Amazon Japan. We don’t have Target in Canada so I don’t know anything about their preorders.

    Just got an email from Target claiming they couldn't process payment for my Ratchet order (gee maybe my bank finally pushed back against the constant state of pre auth charges Target seems to like to do with their preorders?). Glad I caught it in time, switched to a different card, but ha wish I had done PayPal for this one since by the time this released I'll probably have the same thing happen again. And there's no option to switch from a card to PayPal...

    He looks great, but metallic paint would make him pop.

    I don't think it is. We've seen this stuff play out plenty of times over and over. People say its mis-transformed, even in official reveals, and then it turns out it wasn't.

    Where is it? Because I haven’t seen any pics without a hideous mass of shrapnel around his head.

    The video in the first post of this thread as well as this image show the correct back transformation. I think it looks better this way.

    I guess that’s better? Tho all it looks like is the new pics just have the black parts hinged up 90 degrees. Tbh I still wish they cleaned up that whole area. I was really looking forward to this guy, but that mess around the neck...
