    Just received my 2 sets. This is a great set. I got the set from a Taobao seller for $16 plus shipping each. Now waiting for the Nemesis version.... OptimusUP.JPG

    This looks great. I sent an email concerning the shipping date for TF-Direct's orders, and this is what I got:
    "Thank you for your information. It is coming soon and supposed to be arrived at warehouse in 2~3 days. Thank you."
    I got this email on the 14th, which means they should be shipping out any time now.

    Hey... I posted this in the OS Mpp10 thread already but probably should have posted here...

    I was able to sort source the WJ MPP10 Upgrade Set with free worldwide shipping and they are now in stock. Likely won't begin shipping again until after the spring festival in a week or two. Cheaper than eBay and AliExpress as far as I know. Tracking, PayPal fees, and buyer protection included.

    It's a great set and value for money with the inclusion of articulated hands, led head/eyes, led matrix, led gun, plus extra gun.

    Cost and Order info here!

    Mine arrived yesterday from johosontony on ebay. It was $26 shipped so I went with it. I was amazed at how quick it arrived. Ordered on 1/14 and received on 1/23. Normally stuff from China takes about 2 weeks to get to me. I unboxed it and everything looks nice. The hands appear to look like OS versions of the KFC or Eness MP10 articulated hands....the finish seem to favor Eness a bit more which is a good sign. (I wish OS Sideswipe could have done the same and used OS versions of KFC Sideswipe's hands for better gun grip.)

    I'll post an update once I install them.

    Anyone know what type of batteries the guns take?
    Mine has them in the Matrix and head, but not the guns.

    There is a paper slip on both guns. YOu will need to remove the slip. It prevents the battery from contact with the mechanism from accidentally switching on the lights.
    Just like MP05 fusion cannon.

    They didn't include the batteries or took them out. At least in the guns. I don't mind buying them, but I have no idea what type I need. I'm not sure about opening the head an matrix battery compartments to check the type, lopks delicate/tight.

    I have the same problem. Mine came with batteries in the head and matrix, but neither of the guns. LR44 cells are too big and 377 cells are too small. I'm confused on what batteries go into them.

    Pending measurements to confirm, I might try 373. Here's a guide that can help.

    This might sound really stupid, but maybe you do want to open the head and matrix and if they use the same battery type, chances are the guns will be the same. Why play this guessing game when the obvious answer is right in front of you.

    You're right l, it's just that... both those batteries are kinda tight in there. The Halves of the matrix seem like they're glued together.The one in the head is visible from the side, just no easy way to extract it.
    I'll just have to risk it.
    I just hoped someone had access to the batteries inside the guns.

    Neither one of my guns had batteries, so no slip of paper to pull out. The only batteries I had on hand were CR927s. It seemed a bit too big to put in there properly, but I noticed 1 battery diagonally made the gun light up. It worked on the other one as well. I don't know if it's bad to do that or not, so use at your own risk, but now I have 4 light up features on this guy.

    Just picked up this set from Toy Dojo. Pretty neat. Anyone else having trouble getting apart the old hands, though? I've taken out the screw, but one hand doesn't want to seem to separate.

    I'm trying the equivalent LR41, based on dimensions it looks about right. I'll know in a couple of days when they arrive.
