    If Star Saber wins, I will be SO glad I passed on the Alternity one, even though he would match my Dai Atlas better lol. Come on Saber!

    *Looks at MP04 Perfect Convoy*

    No worries dude, if the Makers missed out on those the first time, they'll be sure to include whatever's missing via a "Perfect" version.

    History has taught me well, no? :lol

    With Armada being one of my favorite cartoons and having missed out on the figures, I would absolutely love a Masterpiece Armada Prime! There is room to make alot of improvements over the original figure! If he is chosen, it is definitely a must-buy for me, no matter how much it hurts my wallet!

    I kind of think I would only want an MP fortress max... the MP line to me is more the original series (G1) toon line. I don't really want MPs of 'primes' from other shows. at least not yet. I'm not saying I want a bigger fort-max, just a nicely articulated fort-max. but even then It's not high on the list. we need a new megatron, jazz, trailbreaker, hoist, ultramagnus, and many more still, in the MP line. so this doesn't interest me much.

    Well this was a Takara poll predominantly for Japanese fans. I'm pretty sure the Japanese audience that watched Victory is allowed to be nostalgic for the Autobot commander from that show.

    This would kind of suck if this really did determine the next MP. All the options were obscure figures only out in Japan. I know Star Sabre has a big following, but I can think of several others that would make more sense especially with the latest outings. I'm looking at you future MP Jazz and Megatron 2.0!

    It's been said that this will coincide with the 'regular' MP's and isn't taking any ones spot. So, it's possible that we could get MP Star Saber and MP-22 or 23 at the same time.

    The MP release schedule has increased dramatically. When we were waiting multiple years for a new one, I'd agree with you. Now that we're getting many in a single year, demanding them to be limited to G1 stuff America got seems silly. You'll get the guys you want sooner rather than later.

    MP Star Saber was a thing of my dreams. I'd love to see it become a reality!

    Now thats abit of info I didn't know. If this is the case it would be nice if they did a poll for the Decepticon leaders. They could possibly do the poll for the con's when they release the winner of the current poll.

    Hopefully, but the fact it is that outside of a few exceptions, cons don't sell near as well as the autobots. Whoever wins here would be guaranteed to cover production costs just by the virtue of being a voted on bot. The con might not sell near as well.
