    For a character from a spin off/space filler, these characters Takara JP created sure are butt kicking awesome! Can't wait for mine to arrive!

    Leonidas was good but nothing beats the official!

    leonidas is fine standing there with action base plug in but once articulated the friction will eat away every plastic it can then crumbling down.

    Can anyone photoshop Lio convoy's beast mode into other colours? We already have his several 'colourful' fan-made robot modes. I think it'd be really cool if we have black lion, flash lion and green lion LOL.

    VERY handsome robot! Too bad the lion mode looks pretty terrible.
    Hope fans of BW2 are happy with it :)

    Yeah, but isn't official Takara plastics pretty much at the the bottom of the barrel these days?

    Nevertheless, I really would like to have MP-48. I'm trying to stay disciplined and wait until seeing some initial in-hand reports with no widespread QC problems before pulling the trigger.

    Just got my invoice from Oh My Primus. I think I ended up paying $135 shipped, which might be the cheapest place that comes with the pin.

    save that for hound
    my Prime , Bee , Black arachnia and Megatron is still rock solid and doesn't develop crack throughout transformation , only when you apply excessive force.
    Plastic quality is thinner ratio than 3P but they are good enough for serving.
    My friend's opinion about 48 is paint chipping still an issue but the build is very good with ratchet galore.

    Paint chipping doesn't really bother me, so if MP-48 is solid with no widespread issues, I'm certainly interested in getting one.

    I have MP43~47 and no issues so far (other than 44's knees that I fixed), but I've read about so many problems about them on these boards, especially 47, that it's hard to have too much confidence about TT's quality going forward.

    lol, well IIRC, the WHO say corona virus has a 6 hour life when it’s not in a body. But take that with a modest sized grain of salt.

    ROFL :lol  now I can’t unsee it xD

    Yes, we can. MP 45, 46, and 47 were all discounted FURTHER by AJP to as much as 50% off after a couple of months.

    So yes this price will be beaten.
