is Rijie the Japanese name for Mirage?

That's what ppl said when TakTom TFTM Premium OP came out... Its not being declared as limited or exclusive but only one batch was produced hence the jump in price.

However we don't know actually know how many units was produced for this batch of Buster Prime hehe

I think the Japanese name was Ligier, which was a real world F1 race car.

It might, im not saying it will, but it MIGHT. Reason i say is because i felt the same way about the tftm premium prime (takara) that it was rather similar in the beginning... It was a one time release and when it was released, there were plenty to go around with...

Also, Hasbro said they would NOT come out with a PREMIUM rotf verison,.. hasbro sure did kept to their word,. but TakTom nv said anythin abt doin a premium / repaint...

When Hasbro came out with its version of (inferior in terms of chrome n paint) premium prime, the Takara price jumped. And soon after that, just prior to the release of ROTF movie, it jumped once more. It sold like hotcakes too because the paintjob on the first leader rotf prime was so shitty, the premium TFTM prime was, a real PREMIUM (in terms of paintjob), so to some, it does matter.

So if Hasbro does not come up with a Buster counter part with better paint, the RA-24 will increase in price (If there are no re-issues).

I've never seen a reissue of the firs tftm takara premium prime, so if TakTom decides not to reissue the RA-24, it will definately go up one day. Will they reissue it in my opinion? Even after they reissued SUPER HOT and scalped to death items like MP04,MP02 and THS-02?

I dont think they will. Why? They will probably have a new cycle of prime for the 3rd movie...A newer better fitter prime. Just like they did with ROTF.

So put ur wagers boys =)

http://cgi.ebay.com.my/Custom-Transformers...=item3efaed4807

This is nicer then their last time OP!

Crefigz,

if can just add some metal chain on the back part of the truck, which at the battery cover side there. Cause in the OP truck it do have the chains. Just my opinion.

duno got any different compare with hasbro. chrome parts again???

wasn't the animated line manufactured by takaratomy and marketed as a hasbro item?

nope. its hasbro first then only takara.

TFA-07 Starscream • 3600yen • March 2010
this is voyager class?

for deluxe, 2300 JPY = RM87, when it comes here the price'll be like what? RM 95! FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!

If i'm not mistaken, TFTM premium OP was distributed ONLY by TakaraTomy but for Buster Prime, both TakaraTomy & hasbro distributed him

Normally Hasbro's marketing require lot of stocks
to play safe, buy 2

One to keep and one to goreng... hehehe?

Thanks,
