Nevermore
Barricade is now listed at Amazon Germany, but has been assigned a new Hasbro product code number (E2316, which is also used for his recent Hong Kong release, instead of C0896 from the old Amazon Spain listing) and a new EAN barcode (5010993502905 instead of 5010993374502).

Here's hoping HAScon HAS something
no but like seriously everything I've heard about the convention so far doesn't seem very collector friendly
Seth Sunthay
I'm wondering if it would be announced in the Hascon, so far, every MPM has been revealed by an event frol Hasbro, and i don't think barricade is an exception.
Nevermore
Wow, dude. What's with all the constant hostility coming from you? Did someone pee in your coffee or what?
Purple Heart
Are you sure they just weren't trying to keep it secret? They would even if it was coming.
soundwaverulls
Aw, damn it!
Seth Sunthay
Yes the new prime and bee are new molds.
Johntimus Prime
Oh, wow. So the ones we're getting now are the first new-mold MPMs? So then this is kind of like the official relaunch of the line in a way. I hope it continues.
Seth Sunthay
Mm, the first mpm bee was a re-deco of battle ops.
Johntimus Prime
Yeah, the first MPM Bumblebee was a new mold IIRC, but Starscream was just a redeco of the Leader toy. I'd love to see them continue with all new molds, and I'll probably end up getting both MPMs.
Seth Sunthay
That's indeed true, Hasbro wants a respetable collectors line, but they need to sell bee and prime quite well, thing i'm sure they'll do.
SilverOptimus
Actually there is some basis. During the Hasbro Hangout session, they told that they'll be releasing MPM Optimus Prime and Bumblebee first. If the sales/reception is really good then only they'll consider designing/releasing more figures for the MPM line. I'm guessing (and purely a guess) MPM Barricade is on hiatus at the moment.
Hasbro Transformers Brand Team Chat Details – Transformers News – TFW2005
A question was asked specifically on MPM line. Answer given:
Seth Sunthay
.yeah, everyone is miss-undersating this news, they cancelled the pre-orders for the mpm figures (not just barricade, but optimus and bee as well), it just wasn't the moment to post them.
John TheDestroyer
I may be wrong, but from what I understand they accidentally put up the preorder for him early. They were cancelling the preorders.
Johntimus Prime
Then what was the Amazon Spain thing about?
John TheDestroyer
You're misunderstanding. Mpm Barricade is still happening.
Johntimus Prime
It seems odd that they'd cancel it, though. MPM Optimus has been rumored for a while and is happening, and we really do need an MP Barricade. He's one of the more popular movie bad guys, and he's one of the few to not die a horrible death, so why why not give him an MP? I like my HA APS Barricade but even that toy has its flaws. I want the best possible version of the character possible. I hope this is an error or misunderstanding.
SilverOptimus
Sorry, dude. Didn't meant as a disrespect. I know you meant well as well.
I kinda knew some tidbits but noting majorly groundbreaking. Knew slightly about what MTC was all about. That's about it from me. We just got the exact info ourselves. Hasbro usually keep things under embargo.

If you are trying to rub my nose in anything I would try doing it with something better then a few repaints and retools. This stuff looks horribile and i dough ill be spending any of my money any of this garbage. Strange, these reviels come a day after this site was about to boil over with anger. So we're you guys seating on all this info the whole time or did someone do some investigating reporting and contacted Hasbro and ask if they had any thing to share?
