New face mold, new hip mold, new machine guns and the removal of the hip kibble.
New investments in new molds plus the long dormant in plans but shelved but re implemented coronation set.
So the price is indeed justified. Money doesn't grow in trees (but from our drained pockets
).
Btw, Takara ain't forcing us to buy him right? We aren't like entitled to the price we want. This IS an expensive hobby.................heck, until now still saving for an MP-10 which I sooooooooo want but need to take care of other expenses first.

IT'S HAS THE SAME GIMMICKS!
wow, remolded head and no hip kibble, but that still does not justify the price!
Honestly, I would buy it but not for the price of $160!
new head.....nothing big there.
sorry takara it's still a pass for me.
there you go transfans, more for you to sink your teeth into.
oh, and why does he have a penis now?

I'm sold. I never bought any of the MP seekers, but I did contemplate purchasing Screamer many times, I just couldn't get over the issues it seemed to have, which appear to be fixed in this version. Already pre-ordered on BBTS

Really bugs me that it seems to have no ankle joints, thus no articulation for the feet. I would trade the coronation set for more articulation. Specifically the feet and waist. No point in saying it can't be done. They've had plenty of years and this higher priced remold is what they come up with? Hmm.. When will they come out with a better Megatron, Galvatron, or Soundwave?

Haha I was right to wait, this is everything I wanted in a MP Starscream. 
However, I hope that the repaints will omit the coronation set.

I don't like the feet, and he doesn't seem to have any ankle articulation. That sort of cancels out the improved hip articulation due to the removal of kibble. The new face is weird too, a little to cat-like, or something. I also feel like those wing spikes should fold up. Could use more paint detail too... That's a lot of issues for an 'improved' figure.
I do like the fact that he's not white though, unlike the previous Hasbro & Takara US Editions.

The way the null rays fold up like that in jet mode. WOWzers! Still a little kibbly with the spikes coming down form the wings, but an improvement for sure. Price tag is a little stiff but manageable.
Seriously though, i agree with everyone else, lets see some new characters in the mix! More decepticons!

Considering today's value of the dollar, I think 160USD is fine. I got Thundercracker for 145USD. And that like the time it came out. MP-04 cost around 130USD in 2006. And that was 2006 money. I personally think the price is a steal.
New molds for the arms, legs, null rays and pelvis area. Plus the coronation set.
And look at the plastic. It seems crispier. I hope the quality on this one is at par with MP-10. MY old seekers have warped and sagged plastic molds.
My only current gripe is the fact that the hands are still the same ball jointed ones.
I'm exited with this release.

They've fixed his (in)ability to stand and fixed the part-forming with the arm guns but be warned people: there is no articulation on his hip panels - he seems to have very limited leg movement.

To say I was underwhelmed with this announcement was perhaps attributing waaaaay too much from me excitement about the subject (if I buy any more MP Seekers they will be iGear's animation-accurate version with the fixed hip kibble, but then THIS occurred to me; what better reason to produce Emperor Starscream than if the next Masterpiece they're cooking up is a Galvatron to blow him to bits. We can only hope; additionally, I hope any future Masterpiece Galvatron includes a set of Starscream's feet, whcih were of course the only part left of him after Galcatron disentegrated hm ith that single fusion blast. Still one of the most cathartic moments in cinema from my childhood....
So okat TakaraTomy, you can now tell me where my Masterpiece Soundwave and Masterpiece Shockave are. I've been waiting VERY patiently for those two.

Does look nice, I'll give it that much. Hopefully the US release is spot on. Keep the coronation set as the difference, I don't need it. I'd put it on once or twice then just leave it in the box from there.

That thought occured to me too... I only hope that's the case. Perhaps this is genius rather than folly on Takara's part.
I'm less outraged at the price now, but I'm obviously still not getting it. I would if I didn't have MP-03. But I'd still rather have MP-10.

For those complaining about the price, remember this is a Japanese release intended for the Japanese market and has to be imported, add to that that the US economy has been pretty much run into the ground since the first MP Starscream and that the dollar is not as strong as it used to be and you'll understand why this costs more than before.
It also comes with more accessories, cape and stuff.

The new color pictures look awesome. Well done on the paint scheme. The ankles suck. Not sure if I like the head mold. And what's up with the ankles not swiveling?! That's so 1990's!
I like how the guns are hinged to the forearms and extend outwards on alt mode.

I could care less that I already own MP Screamer...these tweaks they did to an already amazing mold are more than enough to warrant buying this.
This will be my bot mode display, and Wally world Screamer will be the jet mode display.
and i was just thinking to myself before these pix surfaced and all we had was a confirmation, that I found it hard to imagine Takara making a better figure...well, they did it.

No not regardles, the toy is priced in yen, the prices we've seen until now are Dollar and Pounds, converted from yen.
So while the price in Japan might be about the same as the original MP Starscream, converted to dollar it would be higher than before since the dollar is weaker than back then.
If that still makes no sense to you, read this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_rate
And add to that, that material and production costs have gone up and you'll see why this is so much more expensive.

I understand that the conversion rate is worse...so what? iGear's seekers still cost $100 including shipping! The point is Takara's doing this in large part to combat iGear...but if I had plans to buy iGear's seekers, I don't know that this would dissuade me any because I'm still saving like $70 a piece after shipping sticking w/ iGear, regardless of the shitty exchange rate. You want to kick iGear in the nuts, sell this for the same price they're charging. Hell, charge less and really screw them!

That's my sentiment as well. I can't help but feel that they're getting lazy, but we'll know for sure once pics come out. If it's a completely new mould, and they are starting over in a new scale, then it does make sense to get the popular characters out first. Although it would have been nice if it was Megatron. We'll just have to wait and see.

Pics have already come out. It's largely the same seeker mold with a few modifications, primarily the legs and the removal of the hip kibble. There are a couple other differences as well, but that's the most notable.

As long as it's not made in China, I'm in. Vietnam plastic and quality way better than those MPs from China.

That part was more speculation by the other people. He never stated that but he tried to explain in a way that wouldn't get him in trouble with his employers and that is the way people took it. I just carried that sentiment over when I posted.

besides Galvatron, I'd like for MP Thundercracker to be released in the US so I can complete the first half of the classic seekers.
And of course, I'd love to see MP Soundwave, Shockwave, and Jetfire released. Jetfire first. I would not complain one bit if any of those were released before TC or Galvatron

There sure has been alot of Masterpiece news in the last few months.
I wish Takara had just released this version with the pre Kawamori legs originally.
I really like how the cape is made out of 2 pieces allowing it to be spread out, thats pretty clever. And the shoulder pads and crown look more movie accurate than the TF toys upgrade.

I actually hope they don't redo Thundercracker and Skywarp and jump right to Thrust, Dirge, and Ramjet. I am happy with the first incantations of Thundercracker and Skywarp.

While I would be perfectly fine with that too, I highly doubt it happens.

My take is, TTomy release MP11 Screamer and Ehobby probably do a repaint of SC/TC. Then in the fall, we're probably get MP12, presumably UMagnus.

e-HOBBY has listed a pre-order page for MP-11 Coronation Starscream that reveals a couple of additional images of the latest entry into Takara's Masterpiece line. Nothing new is revealed, but can you ever have enough images of new a Masterpiece figure? We've mirrored the images from their pre-order page below.
