    Here in the Philippines, TRU is selling them for P7000 or approx. 170USD, bummer :(

    Holy mother-
    This is what I get for not having internet at my house. I had no idea this guy was even getting a Hasbro release... much less a beautiful one as this.

    For the guys who can't find their MP Prime instructions, someone told me where to look, apparently it's under the inside packaging containing part of the box art. Just found mine :)

    Are the index fingers still loose as all hell?

    I lost one from MP-10. I was all mad because I couldn't find it.

    Image Anime was able to procure a replacement figure for me. Such great guys that work there.

    Yep, they still are, mostly when you press too hard having him hold the gun.

    Have they announced when we should expect us release? Beyond the Fall 2012 comment?

    The one they showed at BotCon was identical to the Hasbro version in Asia, so unless Hasbro pulls some kind of last second bait-and-switch, it will be the same. And it looks just as great as MP-10 in person. In some ways it even looks better.

    Personally, I think it looks better. The blue eyes really adds a lot to the toy, as opposed to MP10's dark eyes, which makes him look like he's in stasis.

    Absolutely right. The biggest flaw with MP-10 is the dead looking eyes. Biggest reason why i will buy the Hasbro version on sight. Hoping for some tighter joints in the ankle swivels and neck as well, as the ones on my MP-10 are a bit loose. He's always trying to look down.

    I've heard one guy mention looser ankles on his, but mine are totally fine. His head doesn't have problems as well. :)
