Re: MPM-8 Megatron TRU Preorder online

Takara is pursuing the elitist pricing model. Playing on the haves vs have nots sense of needing to belong. They know it's a community fueled by other collectors and social media.
I think though, the time of the die hard product loyalty folks defending official product over ko is fading away.

Looks neat... (looks at price)... and I’ll be waiting for a Studio Series version. Screw that noise. Good day, sir!

Re: MPM-8 Megatron TRU Preorder online

Why are people mentioning Takara when this is a Hasbro release?

It's a joint collaboration (the box has both names on it). Also, I think Takara is designing the figures, so they're probably the ones who are dictating the price.
