So even if you miss out now, there's always next time. I know that's not much consolation considering nobody wants to wait a year or two for something they should be able to get now. But try not to get too wound up.
Just thought I'd put some perspective on things. Hopefully a big shipment comes in and everyone gets theirs.

But was MP-01 a TRU exclusive? I can't remember as it was about 8 years ago. I got my MP-01 at 50% off at Winners back in the day about a year after release. They had a pile of them.

Re: Masterpiece Optimus Prime Released at Canadian Retail
Has anyone placed an order with TRU.com? What is the shipping to Canada like?
Well never mind, they wont ship MP-10 to Canada anyway.

Re: Masterpiece Optimus Prime Released at Canadian Retail
I had MP Thundercracker shipped from TRU.com. The figure was $75 and with shipping, customs and tax it came to $102.

Re: Masterpiece Optimus Prime Released at Canadian Retail
Nope, they won't ship this to Canada for some strange reason, I tried several different ways to pay and neither worked. Only option is to ship to someone you know in the US, or wait it out and see what happens here in Canada. I can get 2 shipped to Cali for $260 total, but then there's shipping to NS which will probably be another $40-$60.

I did some checking and from what I found MP-01 was released in 2004 and 2006. The second release I know for sure wasn't an exclusive. They sold it at futureshop. The second release was right before the first movie.
Those two releases were just the North American releases. There's also the Japanses re-releases. They released the figure three times in red and again three more times in black, white, and in sleep-mode colors.
So I doubt this is the one-and-only time this mold will be released.
Here's the link to where I found the info. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformers:_Masterpiece

Re: Masterpiece Optimus Prime Released at Canadian Retail
I got that second version from a Target for $20 back in the day because it wouldn't scan and they didn't know the price lol.
