The legs are still naff, but this simple colour change gives most of what I like about MP44.

What Im saying is I want an anime coloured MP10 with MP44s legs. Is that too much to ask for?

Or Hasbro will pull a Rodimus, ditch the trailer and the stuff and just release the the robot. That would be an excellent compromise. If MP10's trailer works with this, or a shapeways adaptor does, then that would be a perfect solution. I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking that. MP10's legs are its only weak point in the design. The more I look at MP10 again now, the more I think it's probably better overall. Despite Takara's move toward a toon aesthetic, the line as a whole doesn't quite match that, and MP10 is a much better half way house between toy and toon that will bring a collection together. MP44 will look odd next to earlier figures like Prowl and Sideswipe, no matter how many pluses they put after the release name.

Only to then find the two robots are different sizes.

TFExpress have put this up for £290, with another £30 off that if you've spent £100 with them in the last year. £260 sounds better than £350.

I shake my head at you, sir! Is the Starscream head gimmick worth £290 and shipping?

I stopped ordering with them when their loyalty discounts rewarded people who didn't preorder, ie less loyal. So check how the 'spent in the last year' is calculated.

For this figure it's transactions made totalling over £100 between 01.06.18 and 01.02.19. doesn't seem to be any hidden catches to that. I've never had any problems ordering with them.
