If this could fold up to match the main blades for back storage this figure would have been flawless to me

It wouldn't be the first MPM that got upgrade kits to help it out. Kinda sucks from a paying extra standpoint, but it's nice to get options when you can.

Not so far. Not I've seen anyhow.

Definitely a shame since he's too small to scale with black apple prime

I just got one from Mercari after missing the official batch and man, he's amazing. Actually incredible they managed to fit the rail rotor in the robot mode and covering the underside of the helicopter. Mine has a slightly bent fuel rod which is a little disappointing but overall flawless.

Got him today. I haven't had the chance to transform him yet but he is in place with the rest of the collection. Now I just need my gap filler upgrade kit for Astrotrain to show up and my Grimlock DNA upgrade kit to show.

Edit: Added pic of them transformed.View attachment 30045320 View attachment 30044731

Lol. Mine is supposed to be here tomorrow so pretty excited. Blackout is the one that made me want to have a small collection in the first place. He will be the centerpiece between 07 Grimlock, MP-11SW Skywarp and WFC Astrotrain.

Awesome. Thank you both. I will most certainly get the cheaper of the two. I had just bought the SS of Grindor and was about to order guns for him. Then found out the MPM just came out. Grindor went back to Amazon and as soon as I get the remainder of the money, Blackout will be where he belongs on my shelf by Astrotrain and Skywarp complete with details and weapons. Super excited.

That's the kind of vibe I have been picking up. I'm hoping for someone who has direct knowledge of MPM-13 specifically. There is a $50 difference between them but since the boxes aren't pictured I'm not even sure they are separate at all since the only box I have seen says Takara as well as Hasbro.

Outside of maybe getting some Japanese lettering on your box, there’s no reason to spend and extra $50 on the Takara version.

Like a previous person I have a question or two but this thread is huge, so I'm not sure if this has already been discussed. I understand that for several lines Hasbro and Takara figures can have some differences. I have only seen two pictures of the box for MPM-13 and in both it has Hasbro and Takara listed on the box. Amazon has two different MPM-13 for sale, neither shows the box and the are two different prices. One is $150 and it says made by Hasbro. Another is $200 and it says it is made by Takara. My question, is, is there any actual difference?

They sometimes have slight differences, like how MPM bumblebee prime had grey windows instead of blue. But in general they usually don’t have any differences.

Excluding MPM-3 Bee, MPM-4 Prime & MPM-12 Prime, every other MPM has been basically identical Takara or Hasbro. Outside of maybe differently colored screws I guess. I'm pretty sure Blackout is one of the identical bunch, so if I were you I'd just go with the Hasbro listing and save yourself some money.
