Even if Takara releases all of them piece by piece, i'm sure hobby shops will sell them all in sets. I don't think they would want to be stuck in a situation where they have one Aerialbot more than the others but if hobby shops are really selling them individually then Slingshot is a MUST! Alpha Bravo just don't cut it, a helicopter just doesn't blend well with jets.
Nope, F-18 was not utilized :haha: but yeah, back to the Aerialbots, Alpha Bravo just don't cut it. I'm really looking forward to the Takara's version of Slingshot. I just bought a "additional" Firefly from TRU to replace "Alpha Bravo". I'm getting the entire wave tomorrow =) when Slingshot releases, I think i'm just going to sell off the additional Firefly and that Alpha Bravo for people who are buying Defensor.
I agree that the quality has deteriorated tremendously since especially with the AoE line toys, up to the DoTM, it's still fine but then again, we have to take into account the factor of inflation. I don't "collect" every one, i just collect the one that i fancy so yeah, that eases the pain a bit.
To me, 3rd party figures are like "spin-off" cartoons. They are true to its core but somehow "lacking".
For the MPs, the prices are crazily high. the MP-22 now is selling for RM600.00. It's almost the wage some people are earning for a month. What's worst, unscrupulous scalpers are exploiting. Takara's MP10 is going for RM1,600.00 -.- and that was quoted to me last month but now since Takara has announce an reissue i think they can no longer stay there =)
For MP figures, buy at PO prices. Cheaper.Nope, F-18 was not utilized :haha: but yeah, back to the Aerialbots, Alpha Bravo just don't cut it.

Got my MP22 for RM460. And I purchase the car MP's never beyond RM200 (except for MP12 Sideswipe).
Was lucky to snag MP11 on a discount
The others --- well, I stalk FB and wait for people to quit collecting
