The dilemma of a 29-year-old TF fan:

I love buying the more 'mature' looking Transformers, specifically the Masterpiece series.

But after buying, I don't really know what to do with it.

I feel it's cheesy to display it in my living room or bedroom.

Keeping it unboxed for years is a waste, better just don't buy.

And, I'm too old to play with it for longer than 10 mins.

How like this?  tongue.gif

dude, i'm older than u man, and i dun feel cheesy displaying my MPs in my living room...in fact, when got visitors, they will admire my collection biggrin.gif after all, they're feats of engineering....put it in a cabinet, and never transformed before...yeap, that's rite, still in 'virgin' robot mode....call me weird, but i just dun transform them...straight from box to cabinet....sweat.gif


QUOTE(roytomas8998 @ Aug 5 2013, 02:33 PM)
haha. i know that feeling. I also like "mature" "toys". when i say mature it meaned, " less than 30years old"  brows.gif
eh, why cannot play more than 10mins?
*
eh, ini dah off topic ni....dah tukar avatar nampak bro? tongue.gif for the record, i also like "mature toys", and also mature toys....if u know what i mean brows.gif

Hehe I guess we all got our weirdness... mine is I like my TF to come in vehicle mode, so I can enjoy transforming it into robot mode just ONE time... then never again. I get pissed off when my TF comes in robot mode out of the box, cause then I miss out on the satisfaction  tongue.gif

actually, i think the ones who are above 25 years of age only know how to really appreciate MPs...coz it's based on 80s G1 cartoon....

QUOTE(HxiiiK @ Aug 5 2013, 04:27 PM)
what age group caters to youngsters? tongue.gif

'youngsters' shud be below 30...those above 30 (including me) are all veterans liao tongue.gif anyway, like HxiiiK says, we're all young at heart...

jus saw the PO went up for mp10 on trsource.
USD300.......sigh.....over wat i can afford...
*
USD300??!! the one with the stand? if that's the PO price, then it's even more expensive the the scalped price of exsiting MP-10!! IT-Toys 'only' selling MISB MP-10 for RM800 tongue.gif

QUOTE(ckchan @ Aug 12 2013, 10:14 AM)
hmm.gif
but i prefer takara mp10. the eyes in hasbro version, though more visible, looks fake and lifeless to me

but the price for takara version is overkill now... waiting for the reissue with stand...
*
er...if the reissue is USD300, then it's still overkill...but i doubt any reissue will be that expensive unsure.gif

i prefer Takara version too...the blue is much more darker, looks better...Hasbro's one light blue looks too 'cartoon-y'...for me at least smile.gif

i think most of the takara MP from those western country is more expensive when we converted the currency... (due to our weaker currency  vmad.gif )...

but if our local importers import direct, it's "usually cheaper" than those sites.

and well, hasbro OP does looks more cartoon accurate and thus the "cartoony" feel
*
as Takara is Japanese version, stores in US will import into US, thus the higher price, no? to buy Takara versions from US is like getting it shipped from Japan to US, then back to Malaysia again, rite? rclxub.gif

QUOTE(omichael @ Aug 12 2013, 11:28 AM)
What about MP10B? The Nemesis Prime version? Seems to be quite widely available on eBay for under RM400.

No trailer, and the color is of course not the ori red + blue... but at least can still get the MP10 mold.
*
MP-10B is everywhere...they are still available at retail price in shops, and even better deals in LYN or ebay. i dun mind without the trailer, coz it's taking up space anyway....but i just wan to have that iconic blue+red for OP...black just doesn't do it for me. biggrin.gif

I also prefer the red & blue... but I don't want the trailer and I don't want to pay more than RM400+ for it.

Buy and display - that's my take on my toys. Keep MiSB also useless, money spent but can't enjoy the engineering marvel (tongue.gif) that is the MPs.

I display all my MPs once I got my cabinet..and never regretted them. Everyday also I see my 'babies' when I reach home from a hard days work thumbup.gif
