Don't count on it, especially with the trailer.

This will either be an SDCC/TRU exclusive...just look at the pattern, all Takara Masterpiece figures have been released on the US market as toned-down exclusives by Hasbro, whether it is a Walmart/TRU exclusive, general market release or the trunk of Pookie's Cadillac, we will see this out eventually...probably with shorter smokestacks & no trailer...who want's to place a bet on this?!

With multiple MP Prime already out? Hardly

IMO the original Optimus is too big.

I'm with you in this one. It was so big that playing around with it became a chore. Grimlock, the Seekers and Rodimus were just the right size, big enough to be visually impressive but not overly heavy and bulky that their joints had a hard time maintaining their given pose. It's the same argument I have with Leader and Supreme class figures.

It's a dilemma. I don't want to miss out, and it would be cool to display with the trailer as the masterpiece of my collection, and I would treasure this bad boy forever. I may have to go for it. I just wish I knew one way or the other about US availability! I can buy a lot of Transformers or clothing for $250.

LOL...of course why would Hasbro re-release another mold of the same characterv Concept Camaro BumbleCOUGHbee...to be honest, I hope they release this guy in the American market, it'll give a chance for some collectors to obtain this guy at a decent price, just like MP Rodimus...sure he's not as cool as the Takara version, but he does fill in the void
