    I hardly notice the difference between $4.40 and $3.20. I imagine the experience remains the same at a different decimal placement when you have enough money.

    Getting really pumped for this guy. Kind of crazy to think that the last new G1 Masterpiece character we got was MP-39 Sunstreaker about two years ago.

    yeah they have been slow when it comes to new g1 characters they have not done :(  fingers crossed the next year will at least bring a couple of new ones but i have a feeling we are in for another v2! the seeker mold! ( or v3 if you include mp03 ) just hope this time they pump out the repaints quick instead of dragging their heels for years like they did with mp11 and then didn't deliver them all ie: welcome committee and the rainmakers


    anyone else a little worried about the paint on this after bee v2?

    I'm surprised we haven't gotten a hands-on review yet.

    Well, next week is the official release date ;) 

    Hard to believe after being unveiled at a show a year and a half ago he's finally almost here!

    And to think in other JP toymags, he was already fully assembled and painted in poses unlike BBv2.

    didn't they have to redesign the shoulders which pushed it back a bit?

    Before release date but after reveal, so it kept us hanging longer than usual. I guess you could say announcing the release date was pushed back due to the revision.

    Plus, take into account that he was rumored to be MP-28 back in July of 2015 and we’ve been waiting a looooong time for this guy!

    When I was looking at my shelf the other day, I thought the same thing!

    MP+ Smokescreen and Hound around the corner.

    Release day is a week from Thursday. Those of us in US should have him in about 2 weeks. I'm so excited to not only get this guy but to start seeing in hand pics and videos. I might be more excited for Hound than I was for MP44......might. Very much looking forward to that transformation

    I love 44 and 45 but I’m way more excited for Hound because he hasn’t been done in the line yet and because of that awesome transformation! Transforming tires! It’s so awesome!

    I also love that the accessories can stay attached in both modes without having to remove them for transformation.

    I cannot believe that some people are choosing to skip this figure because the possible neck gap bugs them so much. I’m sure it will look fine in hand and everything else is great.

    On top of that, I think the neck gap issues are mostly as a result of a few misaligned samples being blown out of proportion. There's a good number of photos with the neck tight against the hood, and it looks no worse than any other figure where the neck is a separate piece from the torso.
