Arghh to buy or not to buy...

Option 1: Blow RM500 on OP at TRU and live happily ever after with the beautiful robot and the big unnecessary trailer.

Option 2: Spend RM300+ on Takara MP10b with no trailer and live without the iconic blue + red colors.

Option 3: Don't buy anything, shut up and save money.

I have mp1, mp2 and mp1b, but all no trailer. Wanted one with trailer for the 'complete' feel. Actually been thinking for weeks if i should get op tru. suddenly the discount popped out. needn't to think further.

hey,im on OP hunting
which is the best, mp10 or mp04?

Comparing side by side, mp01 is still much better overall. the only +ve of mp10 that i appreciate is its more realistic looking vehicle mode. QC on my mp01 is much better. the chrome, after 10 years, still look pristine. the mp10's chrome on the bumper is already peeling off (albeit just a little bit) after transforming twice. Joints are tighter on mp1. Even the battery still works after 10 years! I needed to modify some parts to tighten the mp10 joints. IMHO, mp1 is in the collectible category, while mp10 is more of a toy. i regret not getting mp04 when it was first released.

MP01 have horribly loose waist swivel.

hmm, somehow i don't have that. in fact my mp10 seems to be more loose, possibly due to the soft plastic they used. But yeah, posing is an issue due to its massive weight. but then, mp10's ankle is also quite loose to pose creatively (unless you fix it, or maybe mine's just a lemon). And I can't get the dam gun compartment at the back to stay closed in vehicle mode. mad.gif
