Already have QuakeWave, so don't care about the official version.

Source of this info?

The source came from Fan Toys themselves who said they were delaying everything for their re-issue Shockwave...why are they prioritizing this piece before everything else? sure,it's speculation,but something is up there

Actual source of the info? I'd like to read what they said for myself. If they did say that it's more likely they're prioritizing it due to Quakeblast. Occam's razor etc.

I just looked into it and if it's the same rumor as in the TFW thread than the only basis for it is that two third party companies are releasing one soon so that must mean Takara is making one too. Which doesn't actually make any sense and is the same rumor that people started spreading around the first time Quakewave was released.

Nope the info didn't come from Tfw2005 or the likes.

Then where did it come from?

the source came from the guy who works for Fantoys and posts FT updates all the time on the TFW forums...I think he posted it in the FT bombshell thread

Man, who cares?

Is there's an official Shockwave MP in the horizon, fine. I'd sell my FT in a heartbeat.

If there isn't, I won't. Don't see what's the big deal. Some would rather own an official one, and some will be perfectly fine with the amazing FT one.

I was lucky enough to sell my quakewave before they announced they were going to reissue it. It's such a great figure but changing my collection focus and it needed to go.

Loving these little diecast ES Gokin Transformers!

I think it's relevant for those who don't have the original quakewave. Do we order the rerelease, only for Takara to release one soon after, or risk not getting the rerelease in hopes that Takara releases one. Selling the rerelease would likely result in us taking a loss if Takara releases one.

I guess I just wouldn't mind taking a loss as long as an official one is released, but that's just me.

After returning MP Starscream to TRU, saw that they had three more, so I bough them, what the hell. Opened one and I found out that this one is perfectly fine. The gray is different, yes. Plastic still feels cheap compared to the TT one. But if displaying is the only thing you want to do, I guess you are fine. Thing is, it comes in Jet mode, so please use caution when transforming.

Some pics:

If you want to lower the landing gear, please do yourself a favor and detach cockpit as shown prior to, you'll likely break it otherwise.

Displays well.

Sorry if previous post was a bit extreme, I guess as long as you find a good one, you are good.

I'll just flip the other two.

My Starscream shipped from Toy R Us so I'll find out how good/bad it is soon.

 

[Gakken85]

Hasbro releases are always cheaper. Less paint and crappier plastic.

 

[franpincho]

Not necessarily true. MP10 was great and MP09 was literally the same.

I picked one up the other day and he's frikkin awesome.

That's good to hear. I'm happy to finally be getting one.

Here's my review of this awesome little diecast ES Gokin Rodimus. Loving this line, so hoping that they continue it with more characters!

 

[Gakken85]

My Hasbro MP-10 had loose feet out of the box.
Not that Takara doesn't have issues sometimes too but... it is what it is.

The very first Mp-08 grimlock isn't bad.
