Well they've pretty much run out of colors so I could see a clear colored version.

One last time for people to buy this. They just need to remake this last one @ a lower price. Those of us that has a version of this mold, realisically would not buy it again unless one is a completist and must have all releases of optimus prime or masterpiece transformers. But what I realize, the more I get into transformers is that a lot of transformers collectors are extremely unwilling to spend. Most of us here on this board that buy higher price figure like SOC don't have this problem so most of us already own a version of this. Releasing this one last time gives new comers a chance at owning this @ retail, but if takara really want more people to buy this last release, they should lower the retail price.

Interesting to note that the one of the alleged speeches included in the MP01L base will reveal the next MP after Rodimus.

If they make a clear version, I will highly consider adding another into my fleet.

It's a good chance for people to get their hands on this guy one last time. We still see people regularly seeking one out so I think it's a smart move to reissue it once again. I already have the two US versions so I'll be passing on this. One thing I know for sure is that the image used isn't the actual figure, it's the same stock images they were using for MP-01. I'm thinking this one might be done with a metallic coating, and maybe this time they'll use a better blue tint on the windows. I doubt it'll be transparent and frankly I don't see the obsession with it, I can't stand the stuff. so this will be the last time we will see MP prime then? Not necessarily. This is MP-01L, not MP-04L. Emerje

So its painted like the 20th Anniversary version? I was hoping for something unique. I wonder what has been retooled. I was hoping they might have changed the shoulder that way it would hint towards a final magnus as well that might work like the video posted in another thread.

I think that is the 20th Anniversary Prime. The smoke stacks are short like the US releases. All of the Takara ones have long stacks - correct?

I think those are just old stock photos, I remember seeing these when MP Prime was first released so it's either a straight up re-issue or Amazon Japan just doesn't have the actual pictures of the product yet.

They seem to be the images that Takara Tomy is distributing, eHobby, AmiAmi, and others are using them as well. But you are right, these are old images so I'm not expecting to many changes from regular MP-01. A translator run on the eHobby listing does say something about "mold modification" so who knows?

Last Prime = about time.
TakaraTomy's last time to milk the Prime model.
Reasonably priced at around 7500 Yen from amiami (for those that have missed out) but no deal for me.
MP-01, MP-02, MP-04, MP-01B is enough for me.
