Re: MP Starscream Pre-order on TRU.ca

Yeah, seriously. I am hoping that this release will herald affordable Hasbro MP11 molds of Thundercracker and Skywarp.

I would also kill to see another release of the TRU Hasbro MP Optimus from a few years ago. I'd love to have him but not for the $350+ I see on Kijiji.

This is why I think Generations Arcee didn't show up in Canada.

At my TRU all the BH stuff left was Ratchet and Bumblebee.

This picture would have looked very different here.

The show finished 2 years ago and the BH figures are still roaming the shelves? while MP Starscream is off the site

Lol, if look closely at the date, it's stated sales from November to December. Unless it's the future of transformers fate

But maybe that's the reason for it. And mayb the same reason that mp starscream will not b released a lot due to shelfscream.

Yeah that pic was from last year during black friday/Xmas sales, before Generations Arcee was out.

you might be I like the MP-11 mold and if they bring out different paint schemes to more match the landing party and also give us the last rainmaker that would be awesome

TC was out 2 years ago so the chances of them doing it again is unlikely.

Optimus Prime will see 101 different re-paints from Hasbro before they decide to give us the G1 paint scheme back.

As for Skywarp that is anyone's guess but giving that Hasbro does not seem to have a rhyme or reason to the releases. they used to try to keep up to Takara but now it seems like they would rather give us re-molds instead of new product, Looking at you Bluestreak, We could have gotten UM but nooo

Agreed! I need a purple nosed Skywarp from Hasbro to go with Hasbro SS and TC and complete my 1st Checklist toy jet trio, while the upcoming MP-11TC will complete my Takara toon jet trio.

Given the fact Bluestreak is an original season 1 G1 character and goes good with Prowl, I can see their logic. Easy money on an easy repaint on a character a lot of us would want.
