    Are you selling your defective one?

    I had the same dilemma, but once I got this guy in hand, my leader Starscream got replaced. This guy is damn good. Probably the best MPM figure to date in my opinion.

    If someone wants it knowing it is defective then yes I will sell it. If you plan on having him in robot mode you will never see the deformed nose cone tip.

    You're not helping. ;) 

    It would be nice to have a MPM Starscream from 2007; I have the OSKO of the 07 Studio Series, but it's no MPM.

    Haha!! I still love that studio series version as well, and the oversized version is a very very good looking 07 Starscream itself. It really comes down to personal preference, and which version you want in your collection. There is no wrong answer. I was just speaking in terms of the MPM series. I feel like this is the best MPM figure they've produced thus far.

    Holy cr*p for the third time in two different threads .....

    HOW are you (pre)ordering this online? It keeps saying No Delivery and shows no options on the screen to order it.

    Not sure about the whole preordering thing, but I grabbed mine right off the shelf at my local target. They had two of them available.

    Nah, I’m glad you got one. Having to hunt for these preorders/orders is never fun. I hunted for months in 2015 for a generations brainstorm and finally got one from BBTS after a while. I’m not looking forward to this trend of target and Walmart exclusives. At least amazon exclusives stay in stock for an hour or two.

    PHEW! I managed to snag one online at target for $150 AND cancel my ridiculously overpriced pre order at TFSource. I was scared I'd have to drop big money to find this guy. As an MPM completionist, this is a huge win

    I ordered mine yesterday and got a "shipped" notification today. They just printed the label, but it should be here Thursday for me.

    I love the ebb and flow of new figures arriving within different TF lines; it's like a burst of newfound interest in whatever shelf they will be residing on.

    *as I rearrange my MPM shelf in preparation for delivery* lol

    I found MPM-10 at my local Target yesterday. It wasn't necessarily a figure I was planning to buy, but I felt almost obligated to support it since it's actually on a store shelf, which is rare for something like this these days. Watched a couple of videos and decided that it's good enough, so I went back to grab one. There's a Target Circle coupon for $10 off a $50 purchase, and Target Visa has a standard 5% off, so I got it at about $142 out the door. Not amazing savings or anything, but it's better than nothing.

    My copy of MPM-10 doesn't appear to have any QC issues, and I'm liking it quite a bit. As some have mentioned, the lack of paint isn't as big of a deal in person as some reviews make it out to be. It's solid and looks pretty accurate in both modes other than the undercarriage junk in jet mode. It's always more fun to get something in a store compared to ordering online, and it's a solid figure, so I'm happy to have found one.

    1 thing that stood out by far once I opened my copy last night was how solid this toy is. Very big surprise for me given how past MPM’s I own(missing Megatron/Jazz/Ironhide) have felt in-hand. Very sturdy and it is something you can play with.

    It isn’t a perfect movie Starscream and comes up short in some areas but it hits a lot of high marks. I really wasn’t expecting how sturdy it would be, it’s not something that you can tell by a review. So it was a pleasant surprise after unboxing.

    I used the same deal and ordered for in-store pickup. Unfortunately the 10 dollar discount does not work on shipped to your door items.
