    Guys, sorry to ask in this thread, but does anyone have an up-to-date open forum about Ironhider BA? Will it really be released? There's a recent Instagram post showing it, I'll post the link here. Does anyone have any information? Thank you!

    There is a thread for it but it’s locked and no new info on it coming since WJ got raided other than rumors (which I hope are true).

    Well that makes sense as there's only been one MPM since then.
    Keep in mind their "heights" are very different than their head heights. Blackout has a whole kibble hump and that's factored in. I think when it comes to head height he's around the same as Optimus.

    Sad part is that I kind of have to agree with him. I'm sure the figure will be almost perfect, but will have at least 2 glaring issues that could easily have been fixed in design phase but weren't. I'd love to be wrong but I won't be suprised if it happens.

    I don’t really care. It’s such a tired discussion and everyyyyy MPM thread has comments like that.

    Yeah but every MPM has had questionable design choices, poor paint apps and inconsistent QC.

    I am normally VERY anti-KO but I make an easy exception for the Hasbro Asia MPM line. I have bought them all except MPM-2 (back when it was Takara. This one was just a bad mold in general), MPM-4 (I never found one for sale...fortunately) andMPM-12 (I have the ThreeZero which is far superior. I don't care that it doesn't transform). The ONLY MPM that I have not replaced or just out right chucked in the bin/sold, is MPM-1 (back when it was Takara), which I still own and still love. The MPM line has been garbage since Hasbro Asia took over from Takara. Just chincy chinese crap. Worse than dollar store KO because they charge premium prices. The KO's in this case have been half the price, some have made engineering and design improvements and all have had far superior paint to date... It is very unfortunate that the KO's are SO much better.

    Damn, could be either one the 3 Decepticons left for the Movie 1 cast, Blackout, Bonecrusher, or Brawl. Or it can be any of the Bumblebee movie cast. My guess by the logo it\'s from Movie 1. Oh boy.

    Pretty rad of you to come in like this when everything has had pretty good vibes so far. Especially since I don't think every MPM has had this issue.

    The magic words to summon me have been spoken. :p 

    I'm always at least interested in seeing a new MPM. Blackout is probably my favorite Decepticon design from the first movie. I always have to remind myself to be realistic and understand they have guidelines and budgets to follow, but I think another part of me always wants to have some sort of surprise, maybe like with the kibble management or a little paint where I didn't expect it. I guess we'll see soon. :D
