thats true. but for me, a masterpiece would have to be something "anime accurate". MP-01 is a perfect example for that. starscream is almost perfect as well but with the color release (dunno about the fragility issues though). megatron is almost perfect in exception to the leg design - but since its still a work-in-progress design thing, i do hope it works out fine.

agreed with sir stephen. mp prime and megs sure have come a long way from their dialone days. the legs arent that bad, helmets and face bothers me more (imo, g2 megs still has the best toon face). plus no more side barrel and trigger crotch. finally they can duel like they did on top of hoover dam. hope they make a pat lee versoin o mp prime though... those revoltech toys have been temptin... pat lee MP? simple. [1] take MP01 [2] take marshmallows [3] fit marshmallows onto limbs and torso [4] enjoy - last "  " maximal |

cool....
i saw also the same pic of Megatron on bigbadtoystore.com...
it will arrive on March '07 coz its a pre-order...and it costs 99.99 dollars...
here are some additional info abt the MP-05:
Due to United States Toy / Imitation Gun Laws, it is illegal for any business or individual to import the MP-05 Megatron because it does not have a blaze orange safety tip on the end of barrel. A copy of this law is listed at the end of this description. In order for BBTS to legally import this item, Megatron must be modified. A blaze orange safety tip will be added to the end of barrel. This orange tip will either be a custom made plastic plug that is permanently glued into the end of the barrel, or the barrel will be permanently painted with blaze orange enamel paint on the tip.
The exact details of a plug versus painting have not been worked out yet because dimensions of the toy, and method of transformation are currently unknown, but it will be one or the other, and any additions will not hinder the transformation process.
Without this orange tip modification, US Customs will seize any incoming shipments for this item that they discover because it does not comply with US Laws, so we are providing a legal and risk-free solution to that problem.
This modification requires that all boxes will be opened, and the contents removed for modification. The factory tape seal will be cut, and some internal plastic packaging may be modified or cut. Collector's Grade packaging will not be available due to these modifications, and the normal Standard Grade description will not apply because the tape seals have been broken. We realize these modifications will slightly change the appearance of the toy, but we also realize that giving you a legal way to own this toy is much better than not owning it at all, or running the risk of US Customs seizing the item. The orange barrel tip will be roughly 1/4" to 1/2" in length. While we do believe the scope will be included, we do not anticipate the silencer or gun butt to be included. If the silencer is included, it will also have an orange tip applied.

that's just tough luck for US residents as they cannot import MP-05 without some modification and that means opening MP-05 (sorry no MISB!) that means an unmodified MP-05 will be a good investment indeed! We are lucky since that law is not applicable here in Manila although its a bit weird in the US since you can easily get a real gun in WalMart and not a real looking toy gun. I believe it has something to do with an incident wherein a Policeman accidentally shot a kid carrying a real-looking toygun -- just weird, just weird anyway I could be wrong.
