I ordered BT-01 Smokescreen and BT-02 Sideswipe from BBTS because I wanted the diecast and heft I remember as a kid with my originals. Was going to wait to get the US Masterpiece Prime though. But, if the stacks are gonna be short + other changes, I might just get the Takara one as well. Again, I'm not purposly boycotting Hasbro, but I--along with us other normal minded collectors--want the unfiltered versions. Why can't Hasbro simply put a higher recommended age on the box, along with other warnings, keep it original, and I think most here would pay a little more for it. This goes with the Alternators as well. You get what you pay for is all I'm saying. Make sense anyone?

Looks like the Japanese Prime is getting a trailer of sorts: adctalk.com/index.php?act=ST&f=42&t=1948905Seems we'll be able to fold the packaging into a cardboard trailer... I like to keep my packaging mint so I'll be skipping that option, but nice to see the thought there. |

I don't know about the card-board trailer, I can't imagine why in the world anyone would display the best engineered TF with something so simple.
