The long awaited MP-05 Masterpiece Megatron is out now in Japan! It won't be long until it ships from online stores. Also, it is confirmed that he is packaged in robot mode. Transfans rejoice!

I sighted this bugger in Singapore over the weekend. Hate to say it but he looks really skinny in person...

Price in Singapore is about US$66. Still a bit steep - let's see if they add him to the Classics line, with his own talking stand or something.

I should have explained this earlier - it's appeared in Singapore after collectors had it shipped over, not in the big stores or something. Which means I'd be mailing something that was just mailed from Japan back into Japan... I dunno...

Me neither.

Until I saw the Optimus Prime and Megatron Revoltech figures. Then, I was hooked again.

I'm 34, and have bought all the TF Classics line and some of the Titanium line.

Finally found one of these buggers last week. I don't know what I'm happier with, actually finding this figure, or being able to speak enough Japanese to ask a TRU employee to get one from the back for me.

Looking forward to the Revoltech version new, 2 sizes of Prime and Megs battling atop my shelf.
