Mp Prowl looks alrit as always. I can't wait see a Mp Prowl vs Mp Sideswipe video comparison to see which figure is better.

The Prowl mold seems much better than the Sideswipe mold. Both are really awesome, but the Prowl mode seems much more refined and perfected. I'm really looking forward to Prowl, Bluestreak and Smokescreen. I can't wait to have Prowl in hand in a couple of weeks. The Masterpiece galleries from the past year or so will follow soon thereafter!

That makes sence so far in point in time judging by how fast some sites preorders sold out for mp17-18-19. But a lot of times the newer toy wins out in favoritism untill both compared figures become old. Lets see how things turn out, very interesting to see if I made the rite choice of liking the mp 12 mold over the mp17 mold.

Am I a fool for wanting to wait for these to hit stateside? Is there hope for these figures to NOT GO To toys r us? Is it wrong to lay awake at night, dreaming of these Glorious Creations? The only two MPs that I got from Takara were Megatron and Ultra Magnus.. Still hoping for magnus' trailer...

You're a fool. Hey, you asked! Don't wait till it's too late and either live with regret or pay out the a$$ later. Justify it by telling yourself these are an investment and only increase in value. Besides, every one of these is a fanboy dream come true.

There's a point where tweets hype a product and there's a point where it just gets cruel. At this point everyone who is going to want one has seen it and everyone who has seen it either has it preordered or is in the throes of getting it preordered. Seriously, wake me up in 5 days.....

The wait is almost over! MP-17 Prowl the latest figure in Takara Tomy's Transformers Masterpiece will be release any day now, and it appears Japanese Toy Blogger Alfes 2010 has already gotten his hands on the highly anticipated figure. Check out the small in-hand gallery mirrored below from the Planet Iacon facebook page.

The wait isn't even remotely close to being over. For most of us who are importing, the delay with Bluestreak means we'll be waiting another month on top of Prowl's release for him to be shipped. It's getting beyond exciting to the point of being annoying and frustrating. Why can't TakaraTomy announce a realistic schedule to begin with instead of pushing back every second Masterpiece release?

He is still looking alrit but that side view of him makes him look kind of overly wide from the front to back and his hands are little to big. Other than that, I'm looking forward to see the video review.

Except it's not just the delay and the demand and desire for MP Prowl has been anything but unrelated to Takara's marketting cmapign with it. Prowl was already a case of "shut up and take my money" from the outset to alot of us. On top of that you have Shogo Hasui running a major twitter hype building campaign on a figure which already has high expectations. That builds anticipation. Then they not only delay the figure, but keep on building hype for it.
When you carry out a marketing campaign that way while delaying a figure, eventually something will give and it'll wind up pissing people off.
Tbh I was fine with it all until Hasui kept building the hype after the figure had been delayed. At that point it crossed over from enticing customers to slightly alienating them and from memory it either didn't happen when Soundwave was delayed, or was nowhere near as bad.

At this point though it's no longer a gift horse in the mouth. The marketing machine stopped being that when Hasui kept hyping the figure up this month when it had become delayed and most of us were anticipating it. The last couple of teasers have been more like what happens when someone carries a joke too far and people start getting ticked off by it.

lol, his hands do look close to the size of his head and it's a shame Prowl wasn't a female autobot cuz with that kind of forward depth on the chest... hot damn!
all kidding aside, he looks awesome and I don't mind the delay in hopes that they were fine tuning or making fixes in the production process. Honestly the wait between first reveal and release of these figures run so long (I think it's been about a year since the first non-silhouette shot was released), that I just ignore release dates until TFS tells me my order was shipped. It's kind of a shame that he's so chesty, but even the masterpieces look better from some angles than others.
That shot on one leg makes me think the weight distribution and strength of the joints on this guy should be superb.

Pretty sure it's been Order Stop for quite some time now. They can only take so many preorders. But the release is very soon, so it should be any day now, like you said.
Edit: Derp, spoke too soon, just got the payment request now. Now for the long, agonizing wait for Streak to be released.

He moved in there with the Optimus Prime/Bumblebee pack ... and Metroplex.
Combine that with Blitzwing and Springer, that's gonna be a big box.

There were a few interesting Diaclone and Microchange concepts we never saw- like Battle Convoy's shoulder Cannon, Megatron's add-ons turning into a buggy and MC-22. Something really has to be said for the designs of the late 70s and early 80s.

Wasn't too sure if that was him or not. Had some details that made me think of Megatron as well, like a mix between the two.Bowspearer wrote:You left out Overlord.
