Was at Cineleisure today to buy something for my Xbox from Gamer's hideout. the comic shops on the lower ground all selling TF toys now, but not at RRP. One of the shop got KO MP OP!!! But RM 299.00!!!

Of course, comic shops tend to sell very expensive like Leader Brawl RM 300 Voyager 1st Strike Prime RM 115
all want to hop on the TF bandwagon. But interest seems to be fading, so the price is in a process of dropping, except maybe binals and not in production MPs.

Saw got Stockade of all places at (censored) yesterday, but got 2 only and selling at rrp. Dunno if kena ambil or not by now.

So I went to TWorkers after my trip to Cineleisure to check out if there are any MP SS. There were 2 there, so since I cannot wait for my Hasbro version to arrive (taking too long liao), I upgraded to the Takara version.

Yes, I am now part of the MPSS club

Here is the box shot of my Takara MPSS. Looks like the same as the Hasbro one, but with Takara sticker.

Additional Takara sticker on the bottom, with TW's own signature sticker


After I took it out of the box. Looking good!!


Sorry for the picture quality, using my phone cam.

I saw the black Takara one, alt mode nicer than the hasbro one, plus you get a small mini "allspark" cube. But Takara atleast RM 40-50 more. Still if can get the Hasbro at Rm 100 which is the RRP then it is worth getting.


So it begins Samus' mission to obtain the ultra rare Blue Prowl. The hunt begins today

Made out of metal? Wow, like so ordinary unlike the Takara BT packaging.

The scale of all the figures appears to be wayy off. SS supposed to be wayy bigger.

Some shots of Masterpiece Starscream in alt mode.

Nosecone and cockpit


Sharp end vertical stabilizer and tail fins, exclusive to Takara I was told.


All openable features opened

SS on stand



Overall rating 10/10. Make the movie toys like... toys!!

True true, nothing like bragging you got a figure b4 anyone else

Wah, now I am thinking should I get the TFA starscream or not, test driven it at TWorkers a while ago, not bad. *** poison, poison ***

As for TFA BB, took me a while to transform it w/o manual. It is hard, but not too hard like Bulkhead or megatron. once you figure out very easy.

@ samus, sorry, i can only offord only ONE seeker at the moment. The other MP I am considering is MP-04, if the price is right. Please be next month or the month after since Feb budget burst kau kau.

That's a TOY!!

This is a REAL Transformer



Too bad TF didn't win any Oscars, but I think something bay could have left out like-
1) The master-bathing references.. who really needs it?!?!?!?
2) BB "pee-ing"
3) OP and gang acting stupid at Sam's house

Sure the effects were nice and out of this world, but they were too fast in some instances and hard to see what it is going on. Not surprise if some Oscar reviewers miss a scene or 2 during the fast battle scenes. Maybe next time show the transformation in slow motion

Maybe next time I guess

Since xl bringing in the new Binaltechs, any other lobang to buy it? maybe can get it for RM 150 or less

while waiting for the new BTs, can buy the MPSS first

Crap, after I check out the XL shop website, really got a BT-19 and BT-20 there

Pre-order ends 15 March. EST June

MR 180.

arrgghhhh .. tempted.. tempted...

Unlikely it will be a KO moldlah

since when will XL shop and Bigbadtoystore want to have their reputation on the line with a KO? If it is a KO sure their reputation koyak man

at this rate I better stop with TFA and concentrate on MPs and BTs. Real Transformers FTW!~!

Let's see my wishlist:-
1) MP-04
2) BT-20
3) BT-19
4) BT-21?
5) MP-7 (Grimlock????)

I graduated to MP and BT level already

So RRP of a BT is around RM 200? sureahh?

ARRGGHH SUPER POISON!!!!!!!!!! ** faints****

Well some are obvious like BTs are made of die-cast while alternators are plastic. But I do agree that the TFTM line Takara sticker no differenc except maybe the black incinerator or takara NWOP (with defective eye lights, ouch).

Hope that BT-20 is die-cast

Skylnx? MPSS? MP-04?
