    No pre-orders, just deposits on Taobao.

    I'd like to see them carry on the extra silver detailing across the three like they did with MP10 (if it's the same company of course.)

    Oh and a blue Powered Convoy variant. Did I already say that?

    That Ultra Magnus is a must. Especially since the Masterpiece UM will not be an armored version of MP-10.

    For anyone that bought/followed the original KO MP10 thread, does anyone remember what retailers offered it?

    Still waiting for a cartoon accurate deco on an MP 10, it amazes me that it has still not happened yet!

    Has it been confirmed it's the same company that did the MP-10 KO? I'll wait til actual photos of the toys are released. Those are just fillers and actual figure can look different. These MP-10 KO's suffer a bit on the QC front.

    I thought the most recent offering of MP-10 KO was a decent upgrade? Looking forward to these...and the fact that there wouldn't be a limited monopoly like the bape had will be great to not deal with.

    Just a heads up...acestoystore never had the bape version, but acetoy.net did. Also, I was one of the few that first purchased the bape from these guys and they had falsely advertised with their bape for 359 when they sent out a G1 version bape to me and others from tfw. They recently added a second offering with the price in the $500s for a masterpiece one now with the official images and everything. Looks like they probably arnt doing the bait and switch now, but they arnt giving them away at all either for the bape. Be warned, they are a sketchy company...

    Acestoystore on the other hand is a us retailer and is a great and legit seller to buy from, to make sure there is no confusion between the two.

    Has anyone had any sort of experience purchasing from Taobao?
    i mean it is the cheapest place that is offering them.... 53 compared to 95, people would expect to go with the cheaper price. However is the store safe for overseas guys like us?

    As far as I know taobao is only for chinese people. You can't order from overseas there. If you want, you will have to do it thru an agent who will buy it for you there.
    You can find them in the taobao ring.

    You can select your item in this ring, make half of the payment, your agent will receive your item and inspect it and send you pictures of it. Then you will have to pay the rest of the payment including overseas shipping costs and a fee of about 8% for the service. Then you will get a confirmation mail with your tracking number.

    I don't know if this is all right, but that's how I understood it.

    They are a middle man, you put the link of the item you want, they order it and forward it on to you. I've used them a few times and they are spot on.

    I couldn't get Taobao to work for me and it was a painful process. Im sure others like tigerblade know exactly what they are doing when it comes to these things. If you have never bought from a proxy before, you may want to get another member here to help you out. To save thirty to fifty bucks, I would rather just pay when a US dealer has them IMO due to my bad luck with taobao though.
