Hasbro confirmed a whiiile ago that the US price for MPM-03 would be $80, and MPM-04 would be $100.

I read that too but somethings not adding up. If googles currency exchange calculator is correct. The hasbro/takara releases may not be so identical after all. We'll have to wait and see. I hope I'm wrong.

Prices for Hasbro products in other countries are often quite inflated compared to that same product's price in the US.

Don't like the price? Don't buy it then.

Oh I fully intend to buy. This guy looks better every time I see it. My hats off to the designers. Engineering looks top notch, love that the wheels are actually accurately centered under his feet and not hanging off to the side. I was just shocked to see a sticker price that was $35 more than expected. Just makes me wonder if there are going to be some classic Hasbro cuts to hit that lower price point. They indicated that they would be identical but Takara often goes all out on better paint apps. In this case it could really make the difference for those looking for the definitive MP Bee. There were some questionable pics a while back that still have me concerned.

Again, Hasbro product prices in countries other than the US are higher when going via the exchange rate. It will still be $80 domestically, and the quality will be the same as like, say, the same product released in Europe. Japan however, headed by TakaraTomy, is a different story.

Currencies never add up since they are constantly changing and prices are settled at the local market way before they come out. So it wont add up, ever.
The price chosen for the US market was $80 and thats it. You wont find it for that exact same price elsewhere.
And to prove how nothing matches up, people in Japan are able to buy this toy for $67,71 http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail ... agecnt%3D1
And you wont be able to get that exact price anywhere else either.

To add on to what the others have said, the prices of TF figures in Singapore are horrendously inflated. Deluxes are SGD34.99 and Voyagers are SGD59.99...

Come on, he was just fine... appart from the very hairy hands that were just a tad distracting.
Anyway, I'll wait for it to come out locally. Let's hope it will be the same as the Classic MP-Bee. Horrendous price at first, then sale/clearance while there's LOT of stock for a long time.

Keep up the good work, manly, manly man!

No. Just..... No. There is a whole list of reasons to set this post of yours on fire, but let's just leave it at not paying full price for an over priced item, and waiting for a sale is smart economics.

It's a two edged sword really. Often, I DID get burned. Meaning waiting for a sale was NOT the way to go because the figure went into the store like a droplet of water on a hot pan. But too many times, I buy a figure too early only to see a SWARM of them on clearance some weeks or months later.
So, my attitude toward that MP-Movie-Bee is based on the Classic MP-Bee I saw in store. First, it's Bee so you can bet your ass that it WILL be available aplenty. Second, the Classic MP^-Bee was at a whopping 120$CAN as the initial price. Only to go down quickly to 99$CAN and finally ending at 68$CAN. (Not counting getting my Hasbro version at 34$CAN total due to some shenanigan after paying 130$CAN for my Takara).
So, I'm pretty confident that I will NOT miss out on MP-Movie-Bee and I'll be able to eventually get him for around 80$CAN total.

Doesn't matter. They find ways to save money for their business, I will find ways to save money for me. Looking at it in a general sense on both sides.

It actually does matter as you've said something wildly out of context and inaccurate so there's that.

Nope. We are talking about buying it on sale, which is what I will do. And I will do so because Hasbro as a business saves money oing certain things, like redecos ad retools I dont care for. So I will save money every chance I get as well.

Cool I'll report it so as it is unrelated to what the discussion is about which it most certainly is. Nobody is being judge nor jury that's another incorrect statement.

It's not over priced
In your opinion.
Look, we could go around and around on this, but never get anywhere. We all make excuses and justifications for the figures we like and buy. As a 3rd party collector, I do it even more than most. It's okay. It's okay to think something is worth its sticker price, and it's okay to think it's not.
What isn't okay, is saying waiting to find a sale or clearance price is insulting. It's one of the most foolish things I've ever read on these boards.

Same here. I want to at least try and find it in store first. Plus, I'm looking a bit rn on Battle Hornet, but this guy is so pretty.

As I said it's the fact it was thought about and what the individual intended to do. Fair play if you want to save money but don't brag about being that person that says that stuff which is insulting to the fans who really want it. It's certainly worth the price it is being offered and more in my opinion. If everyone had that mentality hasbro would cut costs and that's certainly not good.

That sounds good it'd scale well too. This bumblebee looks wonderful and it's the first time I'm excited to get a beer figure. The new deluxe looks great and I loved the g1 mp figure too.

When a retail item goes on sale, the only one who loses money is the retailer, and most often they don't lose that much. Hasbro always makes their money. Always.
Anyway. Carry on folks!

Long may it continue too. I know barricade is next so I'm curious if after him they might stick with cars. For some reason I think when they do barricade they might skip jazz and go to sideswipe. Just get that feeling that he'd be lower on the list after sideswipe and soundwave. I would absolutely love an mpm Ironhide.

You and me both. How awesome would it be to have the original Autobot cast in MP form? Jazz is one I'd really like, but I cannot wait for a movie MP Sideswipe too. He is one of my favorite movie characters. And we really need the Bonecrusher and Blackout. The movie 1 designs were (mostly) really good and they deserve this treatment.

You and me both. How awesome would it be to have the original Autobot cast in MP form? Jazz is one I'd really like, but I cannot wait for a movie MP Sideswipe too. He is one of my favorite movie characters. And we really need the Bonecrusher and Blackout. The movie 1 designs were (mostly) really good and they deserve this treatment.
Agreed on all points there. I would really like an mpm megatron too. Surely with the wizardry they can clearly do it's time for movie 1 Megatron to get some love. I know he's not everyone's favourite design but it would be great to have him opposite Prime and I did love Hugo Weaving as that iteration of Megatron.

If we can get the original 84 cast of bots in masterpiece, I'm sure we can get the original 11 or 12 from the movie. And I think you're right: they definitely can do a good megatron now. They have learned the magic, and MP-36 and these 2 movie MP's so far appear to be proving that point.
and I agree: I did like Hugo Weaving as his voice. It sounded deep and menacing, more so than Welker. But they each did good with their Megatron voices for a live action movie: one darker and menacing, another a bit more eccentric and hamlin-styled
