    It looks great and I want it... but can't afford it, right now. Will get one when/if Hasbro puts one out and will probably spring for it's Takara re-release (cause you KNOW it'll get one) when that comes out.

    I don't own any MP Prime either and I'm psyched about the possiblity of this getting a US (and affordable) release.

    I REALLY want the trailer as well, but I can't justify dropping close to $200 on it (assuming the US release is $60.)

    I'm really looking forward to see what Habsro adds to their version of MP 10. Sure we will lose the trailer (Good for me woot woot) but they always add an extra or two to the American release.

    I would go up another $30 for the trailer. Limited edition or store exclusive with trailer for $90? Yes please!

    I want it something fierce, but I can't afford it right now, :cry . It looks so good next to mp roddy, and the way I was going to display it was mp10 with rodimus convoy , and hasbro mp hot rod with mp01 prime, and mp megatron. I think they'll look really good together that way, :)

    MP-10 looks great, but not $250 great.

    i have very soft spot for optimus primes with trailers.

    hasbro should not miss out on this one especially when the number of fans is at its peak. if hasbro releases without a trailer, i'd pass on it.

    Although I love my MP-4 displayed next to MP-5 Megs, this guy looks great. I have the MP-4 displayed in bot mode with the trailer upright in "repair bay" mode, so this guy will look pretty cool in alt mode with the trailer in tow.

    I agree with both you guys, I think the Hasbro version will lose the trailer. I also think that if Hasbro can sell an Ultimate DOTM OP with trailer for $80 then they can sell a version of MP10 with trailer for $80or $90. Hell I was a TRU yesterday and saw a HUGE Revenge of the Fallen ( I think) Ultimate Bumblebee for $100, TRU had like 5 of them.

    Please please pleaeese, Hasbro release a US version with the trailer.

    Yeah, but how well is Ultimate OP selling?

    I think Hasbro might be looking at the sell through numbers and then applying that logic to what an MP Prime with trailer could go do at retail, which IMHO would eb a mistake. 1) Because as fun/cool as Ultimate Prime is, it isn't without issues and 2) the market is completely different IMHO.

    I totally agree that the market for Ultimate Prime and MP10 Prime is completely different. But I do believe that an MP10 could easily sell at $80 with trailer, if released around this time next year. It would get the Xmas crowd. Also like I said in an earlier post, I hope for 2 versions, 1 with trailer for about $80 & 1 without for about $60.

    It's nice to have a new OP. Especially MP style... With a few EJ Su design ques...

    But Im happy w my MP1. And Megatron, too.

    Theyre big and look fine on my shelves. I dont need a trailer...

    I dont need MP10. Or another G1 Prime...

    Galvatron is another story. I could use one of them...

    I still prefer the MP-4 proportions without the oversize shoulders of MP-10
