OK I succumb to TRU sale and went ahead getting MP Sunstorm was contemplating between MP Grimlock and him but time ran out. MP Grimlock got sold out fast. YOTH is still available but I find it a hassle goin to drive all the way from Mississauga to St Catherines with this snowfull weather.

Decent price on Hasbro's version: Original MP-01 Convoy still gets a decent resale price: The price of MP-10 might drop since there will be another production run:

Ok. Part Deux of my MP-Screamer... Happy to report that there were NO QC ISSUES FOUND!!! Even the usually jumpy tailfins stays flipped in place all the time and the tiny backwing-tabs actually stay tabbed-in properly now! These tiny backwing-tabs don't ever stay tabbed-in with my TC and my WalWarp. Important note: Everything is really pretty tight. Especially the legs. So, try not to get scared or discouraged, but do try to be a bit mindful of the tightness when extending during transformations. The QC on this Screamer is surprisingly pretty good! It is not perfect, tho. Yes. There are some flashes and stuff on the red plastic of the chest-area. You can see it on my pics. However, it's quite minor and irrelevant to me since I'm used to it even from SOCs and stuff. Other than that, great job, Hasbro! At any rate... I are happy with this purchase!

Finally found a QC error feature on my Screamer today. Somehow, the tiny wing lights dots are both green. Found it actually when I was replacing Screamer back next to my old Walwarp, which had the correct G/R wing lights dots. The funny thing is that my TRU-TC do not even have wing lights at all. Quite a minor QC error from the factory and easily goes unnoticed. Either they ran out of red paint, or just some factory-supervisors or training-manual prolly just forgot to mention to the workers that the wing lights are supposed to be different colored dots. ^_^;Easily fixable by a sharpee or something if you're really bothered by it, tho. I'm not bothered by it. Just surprised me a bit. That said, I really want another one so I can display Screamer in both modes. edit: Apparently, it's a deliberate feature on all TRU Screamer and not a QC error. Geezus, Hasbro...

Picked one up about two weeks ago. Got a 20% off coupon so I paid around $52 and change for it. Way better value than MP Bluestreak. Doesn't make sense that they charge the same amount. MP Starscream is a leader class sizes toy while Bluestreak is at best a Voyager size yet the price is the same? MP Acid Rain and SunStorm were also higher than the $59.99 price point too if I remember correctly. Nice to get these Hasbro MP when they are priced accordingly cause I don't think this is mold is worth $70-$80. At $50-60 it's definitely worth it. I mean, it's Masterpiece collectible, priced only about $10 more than a Leader Class toy. On to the pictures I don't really like this mold much and TarakaTomy and Hasbro has milked this mold to death. But for some reason, this MP Starscream is the most solid and functions way better than any of the previous ones I have. The MP Thundercracker is of the same mold but for some reason, it is super loose. The chest just doesn't stay tabbed and I can't move his arms without lifting the whole shoulder assembly with it. But with this Starscream, everything is super tight. It's like they finally fixed the tolerances and clearances and made it right. With Starscream, the chest assembly doesn't even want to collapse down. And the way that the missile pod/chest vent that connects the shoulder assembly, they are at an angle that sandwiches the center cockpit down tight, so no looseness. Been messing around with Thundercracker to see what's different and how to tighten it up so that it locks like Starscream. Original MP-03 Starscream is getting retired. In both alt mode and not mode, there are quite a bit of change. Not sure what I am gonna do with MP-03. For now it joins MP-01 and MP-05 in the basement, boxed up perhaps to be sold off later.

Thread is hard to find. Here's a small update. The thing about getting 3 MP in one day, I am gonna need some time to enjoy each one slowly. I finally got a Ultra Magnus. When this one first came out, the Japaneses retail site were sold out really quick and I didn't get one. The USA retail was too high, as high as $189 before shipping. TFSource has free shipping but it still to high. Amiami had the restock. Only thing that sucked is due to the size and weight I had to use the EMS shipping. But still, the reissue is much cheaper than BBtS and TFSource. Comes packaged in robot mode. Transformation is simple enough. I don't like the loose connection on how the arms peg together in vehicle mode. The gun really help to keep it together. I open up IronHide and HotRod to do some comparison shots. Gonna play with those two later during the week. Was kinda hard to squeeze MP Magnus in with GP Snarl in a detolf display but it can be done. I plan on placing MP HotRod in the center of this cube later when I get to him.

Nice pickup. This is the hasbro MP thread, not the Takara MP thread though.
I'm still waiting for IH and hot rod, on snail mail!
