I believe the Hasbro version has black "battle damage" deco, where the Takara version is supposedly going to be "clean".

I thought the Hasbro MP Starscream was going to be sold for $50-60 US. Wouldn't preordering be a bad deal then?

The 'Tak version is just cleaning, while the Hasbro one has more washes for the panel lines, think of Classics Grimlock's T-Rex mode, or a gundam model kit with washes to add some shading.

Re: Does any know where to pre-order Takara Maspterpiece Starscream USA edition?

I ordered my Hasbro version from Robot kingdom:
http://www.robotkingdom.com/services...HRMPSS&lang=us

US$ 74.95 (plus 30 for shipping) is the best price i've seen so far on pre-orders. Action HQ has it for $89 + 40 for shipping (ouchy!). I'm not even sure how much it'll retail for at the US wal-marts (i'm guessing $69.99) - but given its "Black Monday" release date, I'm not taking any chances.

To save a few dollars (and get him sooner than later), I'll gladly accept a few scorch marks on ol' Screamer.

Not really. IF Hasbro does release it here, then you know it will be in the $70-$80 range, maybe even $90. Plus, that's pending you can find one at all. Wal*marts here (actually just Wal*marts in general) suck.

If you want it enough, or have the money (like me) it doesn't matter. Besides, you could always try and negotiate with Sheraz.
