Expect the exclusive to be a bit higher than said "SRP" price. I think your local hobby shops can get their hands on some...better make reservations! I have.
Peace

for the price of an MP, i'll be buying a toy thats has two modes... unfortunately this one is ONLY looks good in vehicle mode... at that point its somewhat pointless and ridiculous for takara to release starscream not in his original trademark colors.
i could've gotten a cheaper diecast F-15 or something like that instead if i wanted a good F-15 toy.
come to think of it, takara could release an "anime-faithful" colors version...

Peace do they offer the exclusive anime colors na? where did you make your reservations? hehe. The usual shops where I get my stuffs. They're accepting pre-orders...although, they're not accepting downpayments yet (Maybe plans might change anytime?). I'm sure our local shops there will also have enough for everyone. Don't worry. At least it's not as exclusive as the gold MP01. I just wished they made this one the exclusive and release the anime colors as mass. That way we don't have to pay so much for a n anime color. Most of us prefer that one anyway, IMO. Peace

"Most of us prefer that one (Anime Colors) anyway?" I totally agree with you. i think that's why their making the anime color more expensive.

I agree. It's a marketing strategy; if the demand for the anime-accurate colors are high, then they can produce it and dictate the price. As for me, the color scheme is okay. Beter to have him rather than none.

Amen! I totally agree... is'nt masterpiece supposed to capture the perfect robot form of a G1 say like MP-01? Prime really looks good in robot form and we usually display them in robot form rather than their alternate form. I'm actually thinking of canceling my pre-order and wait for the anime version . Wish they can also release the proto-type version mold. I prefer that with this new one

eh? Somewhat I don't like the way the airbrakes look when deployed It looks too long...however, I don't know if in real life the airbrake hydraulic is indeed that long.
