MP-53 and 54 - Skids & Reboost. At this point I think Takara is punking us...

So, it seems MP-53 and 54 will be Skids & Reboost.

At this point I think Takara is punking us...

Can anyone say, Mirage?

Hellloooo other G1 characters that got more than 2 episodes! Hell, I don't think Reboost got any. He was just another toy to try to sell. Ironically, they're trying again! lol

I wouldn't be surprised if they needed to put this out to get a cheaper MP out to us. The newer MP prices are higher than they figures are worth. I am sure the newer prices lost a lot of sales. I was in since MP-1 and they lost me at 44. $500 for a figure I paid $100 retail for? There was not $400 worth of engineering added to the figure. Maybe $300 worth of greed though.

Skids have a lot of repaints so that's probably it. I'm still waiting for a MP Jazz, probably won't be a while since licensing issues. Hope with the SS, they'll skirt around it a bit.

It's because it's the 40th anniversary of the Honda City.

This.

Skids and Reboost are specifically released this year to coincide with Honda City's anniversary.

Honestly, I got tire of waiting, so I went third party. Choose the right one and quality is just as good, if not better, and— I never thought I’d say this— cheaper.
