Re: Anyone want to pre-order the first MP combiner--raiden?

The Amazon preorder page will just say "Human sacrifice required to reveal price".

Re: Anyone want to pre-order the first MP combiner--raiden?

I am intrigued.
I will likely buy one.
But it will then probably stay in the box for years...
I still haven't opened Star Saber.

Happ for all the MP folks out there, but wish it was CHUG scale, would want it to match all my other combiners.

No. I don't want to. This is not a combiner I grew up with. Instead, just put my money towards MP Hound... MP price is getting ridiculous nowadays, so only stick to the G1 season one stuff mainly minus the version 2, 3 stuff also...

You can get it online like ebay and amazon..... why wait for North America release???? The price will probably be either the same or less anyways.... just buy online buddy.

Re: Anyone want to pre-order the first MP combiner--raiden?

I think it's kind of cool. Looks like they're going in order, so maybe Devastator might be their next MP combiner. If they release it in parts, it may be more manageable to buy. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Re: Anyone want to pre-order the first MP combiner--raiden?

My take is at least ¥12000 to ¥15000 MSRP per piece depends on the size (all trainbots from the original G1 version of Raiden are about the same size), with a street price of ¥9000 to ¥12000. So I expected the whole set will be around $900 our money for all six from places like Amazon Japan, etc where MPs are always sold at discount.

Or, they may mean something else when they say “masterpiece” - the whole thing may well be the size of the G1 version but with a lot more details and articulations, an updated “masterpiece” not a MP if you get my drift. In this case, it maybe around $300 to $400, in line with their new Diaclone and “Chogokin” class products from other companies.

We will see.

TakaraTomy definitely not have N America market in mind, but it kind of going back to their Diaclone heritage. Having seen the Japanese G1 at the time and grew up craving the original Diaclone I so wanted one regardless. And if Zeta still planned to make theirs I wanted that too! Such negativity here...
