I think will not buy it. Shipping is a rip-off. Regular airmail is at 75$ without tracking after that it's UPS at 183 US.
So I'll wait for a reissue

why do you need MP04? do you just want to finish the collection? Prime with his trailer does not worth that much. and MP-04 has a lot of QC problems.

In fact I have Hasbro version. And I do want to make the Masterpiece Collection, but slowly. If I buy the MP-04 and I sell for sure the Hasbro version. With it's mint condition and long smokestacks that I added, I'm sure I'll get a good price to pay the MP-04.

Actarus, in my opinion you should buy an MP-01 (1st release), and a custom trailer from Skylynx like what mpchi did. I own a 1st gen MP-01, a reissue MP-01, and an MP-04 and I have to say that the reissue and the MP-04 have MAJOR quality control issues. Lots of bad paint, overspray, chest doors don't close etc. Trust me. If you pay a premium for an MP-01 now and get the trailer later you will be happier and not suffer buyers remorse with the MP-04 like I did.

MP 04 had major paint problems. i sold it like a few weeks after i got it. i think i got it for like $150 when it first came out and sold it for $100 a few weeks later. I love my misb MP 01 and my hasbor prime.

The compagny accepted to give me a full refund if I'm not happy with the Masterpiece Prime. That's why I'm still thinking about it....
But if there is a reedition coming, I would prefer getting that one....but it's all about rumor, nothing concrete.

I just bought my MP-04. Total paid with shipping is 290$ USD. Not so bad regarding eBay price. I will surely order a second one at the same price that will be for sale. Starting price will be at what I had to pay.
