that one is the ori ler.. 1st generation.. b4 reissue.. not fake. smile.gif

not really. my reissue MP01 still has "Teh Eyes" on the box. so that theory might just be inaccurate.

and no, 20th anniversary is not superior than reissue MP01. what would u rather have? shorten "gayish" smokestacks that'll cost a few more bucks to replace, or a loose leg that can easily be fixed at RM2.50? same QC, near same price. MP-04 is the one with bad QC.

the only advantage 20th anniversary prime have over MPs is the black gun. the battle dmg is not really something to be proud of anyway.

The smokestacks actually cost quite a bit to replace from what  I see on eBay last time bro.

And the black blaster was only included in the 2nd batch for 20th Anni OP. The first batch was shipped out with grey blasters.
*
smokestacks were about USD19 IIRC from aunt lenny last year, it was just a sample back then. have to order. that's what i meant by "a few more bucks" sweat.gif .

really? 20th anniversary originally came with grey rifle? then the 1st batch has no advantage at all over an MP laugh.gif.
QUOTE(samus_ng,)
There's nothing bad at all with the hasbro Prime lah, and don't call the smokestacks gayish, they are nice ok and Hasbro did fight to get the long ones but they couldn't get it. And IMO, A leg that falls off will disgust me MUCH more than short smokestacks, even if they are able to be fixed or what
err...fixed means it does not fall off anymore. i could throw my MP01 to someone's face and am pretty sure some other part will broke off 1st before the leg. plus, MP series is not or playing, it's for display, 99% of the time you won't notice the the loose leg. but a shorten smokestack? brows.gif

however, black rilfe > grey rifle >>> blue rifle.

aiyaa, when i say "bucks", i'd usually be refering to USD la. else i'd say ringgit. "ie..USD19 is only a few bucks".

was this taken with the 20th dvd OP?
*
that's the 20th anniversary. not the DVD. point to note:
- MPs have longer smokestack, no dmg paint
- 20th anniversary has shorter smokestack (due to US regulations) and some black dmg paint.
- 20th anniversary DVD has shorter smokestack, no chrome, no dmg paint.

Well to me saying that he's for display only is not a good excuse. Imagine your friend coming to your house, picks him up, takes him near the fish pond and play with it. Then the leg drops off into the pond. NOT NICE!

*
fixed means it won't fall off dude doh.gif . nobody touches my display stuff anyway, i have a no finger print policy.

do any of you guys let people play with your MPs near a fish pond? doh.gif i honestly don't know who to blaim if anything bad happened.

Hi all, want to know how to differentiate MP01 Convoy 1st batch and re-issue, especially by just looking at the box... confused and want to learn wink.gif hehe
*
simply by looking at the box is nearly impossible without opening. there was a rumor that the reissue have a corrected spelling. however, my reissue stil has "Teh Eye" on the box.

i think there's another way to tell whether MP01 Convoy is a re-issue or first batch just by looking at the box; the re-issue box has pictures of MP03 and MP05 at the bottom of the box, while the 1st batch only have the text stuff... am i correct? smile.gif
*
nope just checked. my mp01 box is practically the same as 1st issue. although i'm really dead sure mine is reissue. maybe they swapped the thing during purchase? shocking.gif

i agree...
same cars, different version, different price...
one is cheaper, one can get 2 of the same, extra can sell at goreng price now...  whistling.gif  thumbup.gif
hahaha...
so, i opted for Alt...
if want true die cast, why dont get a real car... tongue.gif  biggrin.gif

let me add:

one can play forever without having to worry about paint chips, the other is just so fragile that you can only display them. seriously, the day they make MP OP from plastic is the day i'll be selling my MP01 laugh.gif.
