    Finally figured out why MP-45’s sticker sheet comes with two heart stickers

    I’m looking for a genuine masterpiece Shockwave to finish my triumvirate of Decepticon lieutenants. And I think I found one on eBay for a decent price assuming the seller is being honest about it being genuine. Think they are likely telling the truth as they mention and show small scratches on the figure’s belly which is likely the reason for the mark down in price. The price still seems rather expensive to me for a figure that has damage, even if small, but considering a mint version goes for much more, I guess that’s a pretty good deal. The scratches don’t bother me much (I’ve seen the photo).

    Assuming it’s legit.

    Seller has a 100% rating at least. I think I’ll check out Japanese stores like Mandarake (if I can work it out for UK delivery) first as they’re more likely not to sell KOs, but worth keeping an eye on, I think.

    I have seen others on eBay for around £50 but I’m 80% sure those are knock-offs. Many are described as such, but not all, and they tend to come from Chinese sellers.

    As much as this mold gets a lot of flack, I still love it. Both Tracks and Road Rage are gorgeous in hand.

    MP-10 and MP-44 are cool and all, but IMO this guy still hasn't been topped in style and presence ;)

    Question: Does the flight stand from the MP-03 mold work with the MP-11 mold?

    A question for those of you that own MP Arcee... Would you say she's worth picking up after having her in hand for a bit? I have gone back and forth a hundred times in my head, watched a bunch of reviews, and just am wondering what some of you think.

    I wouldn’t sell either of my 2 MP Arcees for double what I paid. It’s an amazing toy.

    @jru42287 if it’s the same as the one the US releases used, yes. I had all three US seekers and the Skywarp we got here was the MP-3/6 version of the mold, but Thundercracker and Skywarp were MP-11. The stands were exactly the same.

    @atomD21 yes. Fantastic figure. I was on the fence but got one at a slight discount “on a whim” and I’m glad I did.
