Via the official Atmos website we can share for your some new official images of the latest redeco of the immortal MP-10 Convoy/Optimus Prime mold: MP-10DC Convoy Atmos Duck Camo Ver.
This new repaint is inspired by the new Nike Air Max 90/2090 “Duck Camo” Atmos sneakers. In fact, this release is part of a collection of apparel and shoes that will be released together with these new Atmos sneakers.
Convoy Duck Camo Ver. will be on sale at selected Atmos stores in Japan and via online from March 26, 2020.
Will this be the last MP-10 repaint in the market? Will you be trying to buy it? Check all the images after the jump and then let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards.

Three months in the waiting, my duck Convoy has arrived.
A word a caution, the matrix chamber is painted green not cast in green plastic. Placing the matrix in the chamber will rub the paint away expose a very orange plastic.

Mine is still in Kojimachi Japan.

My two MP-10DCs both arrived this week via DHL. One came with the box crushed at the top but fortunately the figure was fine and the other came in great condition to keep MISB.
I actually like it more than expected, it really stands out among the other MP-10s!
Dark Skull
Yeah. Though I did ask about 17 days after it showed that Japan Post "accepted" it So maybe that was key. Wait a little over 2 weeks
DaptoDog
Congrats! Yours must have been one of the lucky ones to make it out. Mine was also posted on the 1st but got returned to sender. But I do wonder if my queries triggered the returns since they were only returned the day after I lodged the queries.
One of mine has made it to Australia while the other one hasn't moved yet.

The ugly duck has arrived

I don't know if this matters, but my order from Atmos was shipped via EMS. It had an "accepted" status as of April 1st in Japan. And 28 days later…it is out for delivery
Damned virus.
DaptoDog
Haha I'm destined to never own it! Which is not the worst thing, it's good to have at least one (or two for me including FT-07x Stomp) unattainable grails.

Dogged determination right there. Now just the Green Bape for a reasonable price…

So I've managed to repurchase 2 copies on ebay after getting agreement from the sellers to ship by DHL. They lifted their prices to account for the increased cost. Fortunately the cost increase over my original atmos shipped price only mostly came down to paying GST since atmos didn't charge it.
For those like me that had their atmos orders returned to sender, I recommend trying to approach ebay sellers to ship by DHL if you're not prepared to wait for EMS to resume operating. I tried other avenues such as Buyee (don't have atmos as a seller) and Zenmarket (atmos refuse to ship to them) but they didn't amount to anything. Tenso (which owns Buyee) said they could offer DHL (it's not in their shipping interface) but I worked out it was going to be a fair bit more expensive than ebay so didn't bother.

Cruel April fools atmos.
Hicks_Royel
No kidding. Be glad when the world gets out of panic lockdown.
Dark Skull
Mine is hanging out with yours. I think they both went to the bar….and forgot to get shipped.
Hicks_Royel
Mone is still hanging out in Japan.

I've been wanting that Elephant Convoy for awhile now, too. He just looks wicked…like a nightmare version of Nemesis Prime.

Yeah, I'm missing Green BAPE as well. It's just too pricey without going KO. I'm also missing MP-10G ECTO-1. That's not bad to get yet.
DaptoDog
Magnificent. Once I get this one I'll only be missing Green BAPE.
Unfortunately my two orders got returned to sender. They were shipped by atmos on 1 April but didn't make it out before all mail to Australia (and most other countries) was suspended. I've messaged atmos to see if they would be able to ship by DHL, doubtful but worth a shot.

For those who placed an order in, it should be shipping soon. I just got a shipping notice.
galvatran
That's probably true, even though R&D costs has been covered by MP44.
