Masterpiece Megs looks very nice, I just wish they could have done something about his skinny legs though.

Thanks to TFW2005:

Looks like the Classics Op and Megs two pack is out in Canada. SRP is USD 30. Wonder why its expensive?

this is roughly accurate for two ~deluxes, since $30 canadian comes out to less than US$30 i guess [prices were in CAN$ ba?].

man, can't wait for these next two waves!

I agree with you, Nelson... what Tomy/Takara did to Starscream is unthinkable...

This is one of my fears too.

Although I guess Takara can make an e-hobby exclusive painting megs in his diaclone colours of black and brown.

One thing is for sure, BBTS will open their imported Takara MP05 and put that neon orange mark on the gun tip to comply with the laws in the US. afhub/duh.gif

Oh yeah, I guess we have to get our MP-5 directly from HK or Japan.

This is the reason why I sold my Stormtrooper blaster, but I guess this is for safety reasons afhub/cry.gif

well, designer Kawamori's more to blame here [he decided on the change in mold, too]... but they WERE after the name recognition with him, and let him do as he wished, so they harbor some responsibility as well.

Nope...I don't think Megs will have that crystal stand.

the first 2 magazine scans of MP-5 shown online came from Figure King magazine.

==========================

Looks like there won't be any barrel or stock extensions. user posted image

Ziggy Stardust- 11-25-2006
Let's wait for JustiToys, they may came out with Meg's extensions, or maybe wait for MP-X from Takara in a few years or so. biggrin.gif
