Re: MP Sunstorm at tru.ca

Not really a fan of the trend in TRU's pricing, ie. seeing how many times they can get away with raising the price $20. A year and a half ago, Thundercracker was $69.99. 30% inflation in less than two years is pretty ridiculous.

In any case, this Sunstorm isn't worth the plastic he's molded in, so I'll be passing on this one. Wake me up when they finally release MP-11 as STARSCREAM... After making their way through every other colour of the rainbow, presumably.

They've never repainted the new mold into Skywarp. So sad...

The Takara version definitely looks much better.

Hmmm wasn't acidstorm 69.99? Why is he 89.99? This is a pass for moi per say.

At least that guy in the photos looks like he managed to transform it correctly. No more null rays to the head.

Re: MP Sunstorm at tru.ca

Yeah, it sucks that ToyRus keeps raising the price tag, even for a mold which has been repainted too many times. (I count mp03, mp06, mp07, mp11, acidstorm, sunstorm all as pretty much the same.)

Re: MP Sunstorm at tru.ca

I didn't intend to buy AcidStorm, yet I ended up with one -- I think it was due to a discount offering. With Wheeljack and Bumblebee due around the same time, SunStorm gets pushed waaaaaay back on my priority list, especially at $100. I don't even think I can budget for Wheeljack OR Bumblebee right now.

Re: MP Sunstorm at tru.ca

I'd probably bite for $60-70, but I agree that this one seems expensive.

I'm going to wait to get in store when it's on sale as I have a feeling it will be sitting around for a while.
