    Yup, that's why I did it. If this does get released, I will keep it in alt mode and the Walmart MP SS in robot mode.

    This is getting ridiculous,if its true or not I would sure wish Takara to tell us.I am not
    wasting my time or money on preordering it,I did that on a few and ended up being
    cancelled,so I am taking this with a grain of salt until its confirmed or denied.

    If you order through BBTS, you'll have nothing to lose except for maybe a few minutes by adding the pre-order to your cart and checking out.

    Actually we need a new MP mold. MP Grimlock was the 1st new MP mold in 2 years. Since then HasTak released 1 prime and 3 seeker repaints. Even Grimlock will get a repaint release and it hasn't been a year since it's been released.

    I pre ordered it this morning. $130 for a clear plastic MP Starscream is pretty sweet (probably too sweet to be true). The classics ghost Starscream goes for what, $100 ?

    TFSource has confirmed that MP Ghost Starscream is real and is slated for a June release:

    "First rumored a hoax, we had a supplier today confirm the MP-03 Clear Masterpiece Ghost Starscream is slated for a June 2010 release and preorders are now up at TFsource!"

    In case no one answered after I stopped reading.
    That's a site code for their inventory system. Just like Hasbro products have HASXXXXX and the like.

    Ah well, better to preorder and not be real that not preorder and pay excessive mark-up from the demand.

    Ok. So what store does have a "reasonable" price, and how much less is it than BBTS is charging?

    I must say, I'm a bit confused on this one.


    At some point though, I hope that they do a minor retool on this mode and give us Masterpiece Coneheads.

    Well, let's hear it.

    So now we can try to glue the wings back onto a clear version of this mold?

    Meh. Hope it's a hoax.

    Yep, made my pre-order as well. If real, great, if not, no harm.
