you don't own a single masterpiece figure? what a shame lol. why have you passed? i would assume cost has a lot to do with (which i can't blame you for)
i just really want to know if we're getting these over here. i'll probably get the takara version of soundwave, but if they're going to start chuckin out the smaller more inexpensive cars, then i'd like to know that hasbro is releasing them as well. .. which also could be problematic as i've only preferred the hasbro version over takara once when it comes to masterpiece figures.

Here you go buddy:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/MP-09-Masterpiece-Rodimus-Prime-Rodimus-Convoy-Version-One-/230801381896?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item35bcd59a08
70 bucks 20 shipping 3 days and no bids yet. A much better price for MP-09 than that other dealer you posted. His prices are a rip-off.

Thanks mate for the help but that bid is in the US and when ships i always pay a heavy custom tax which can be more expensive then that UK seller and to be fair there was a guy selling his for 249.99 in the UK Crazy huh!!! cheers anyway

Not quite. They're still all separate companies, however they all fall under the Volkswagen Group. That's not the same as being a single company, rather they are all subsidiaries of Volkswagen Group, including Volkswagen itself:
Volkswagen Group on Wikipedia.
Lamborghini may have yielded the rights, but Porsche and Volkswagen can still decline the licenses.

I'm confused how this relates to the discussion that one of the companies that is owned by Volkswagen Group has granted the license to Takara and that this might be a shift in the willingness of Volkswagen Group to grant the licenses for their brands to Hasbro and/or Takara.

a company might give one company a license relating to one brand, but not necessarily the license to use one of their other brands for a similar product.

I agree with that statement. It is a possibility, however, one that I think all of us would welcome. Imagine Bumblebee as the 2012 Beetle! That would be awesome, though I'd prefer the original ... it's just very outdated. It'd be really slick if they could figure out how to do both versions with the same transformations. "modern" and "vintage" editions.
