    It'd also be nice to catch a break on $150+ mp's for a round or two.. hahah


    I always hated that some people looked down on this release from igear as just another rip off because it shares some transfomation sequences..
    Because there are many bots that share transformation sequences with things that have come before it that "work."

    Yep, then I'll be in heaven!

    That is a very subjective thing. I'm one of the crowd that much prefers MP-01 and his non gorilla arms.

    I know that polarized views of MP-01 and MP-10 exist.. I have both and love them both, but prefer MP-10, and have trouble seeing what people prefer about MP-01.. But at least we all have something that makes us content. Of course it puts kinks in later releases as each polarized crowd prefers one toy or the other.

    Fortunately MP Rodimus caters to both.. Hotrod bot mode scales with Mp-01, and Rodimus scales with MP-10..
    And then rodimus alt mode works with either, and hotrod mode works best with MP-01.

    As long as they size everything in relation to optimus MP10 and rodimus MP9, then everything will look great. Scale down sideswipe to his appropriate size in relation to rodimus and I am sure the cost will be actually affordable.

    The wheels man, they go round when you push the toy. Blatant IP theft!

    Feeling the same way, im actually starting to think these are a bit too small compared to MP10. I love the designs and they'll fit the bill nicely but i hope Takara take this new direction with the MP line and give us MP Ironhide and Ratchet that are about chest height to MP10

    I can see MP12 being way out of scale as he's rumored to be MP9 sized. If he was PP05 sized he'd be a buy for me, but then i'd want MP seeker sized Ironhide and Ratchet, i'm probably gonna avoid MP12 and stick with MP10, these and classics cars for now.

    MP Ironhide and Ratchet at MP seeker size would be awesomebut vehicle scale would be a joke. Not a problem for me as i display robot mode only.

    I think 12 will end up being a size that will fit in 10's trailer. Pp05 fits perfectly in the trailer

    From igears facebook:
    We know many friends are waiting for the PP05, we are so sorry about the delay, but we just got some good news now, the production is going well, we can see the final product in the April~~

    Which seems to coincide with the april 15th date on the shop igear website

    As long as Ironhide & Ratchet scale well with Faith Leader, which I believe is iGear's intention I don't care how they look with any other Prime.

    With a Mr. T head, (like the Yao Ming bot), would be awesome.
