The originals... ok, not exactly, but the original named "The TransFormers" anyway. Take THAT, Diaclone! Generation 1, Generation 2 - Removable fists? Check. Unlicensed vehicle modes? Check. Kickass tape deck robot with transforming cassette minions? DOUBLE CHECK!!!

Oh, oops. Yeah, that was a typo, meant to be $119.99.
That MP-02 seems like a very clumsy mistake, but maybe Hasbro has started implementing their own MP numbering system in the US.
I suppose that's possible but seems odd to start numbering them now when they've already released 7 MP figures. If they were going to start numbering them like that, I think they should have counted those figures as well rather than starting with the newest figures to be released. And who is MP-01? Come to think of it, I've never taken a look at the packaging Acid Storm comes in, would Hasbro really consider him... *google search*. Well what do you know? Acid Storm is labeled as MP-01.
The TRU Distribution centers here still haven't received any MP Soundwaves,Usually the stores get stock from the Distribution centers 1 to 2 weeks afterwards. My guess is next week the TRU Distribution centers get their MP Soundwaves stock,then next week stores in my area,will start to stock MP Soundwaves on store shelves.
I honestly dis-like it when TRU gets TF store exclusives. Because I have to work extra hard behind the scenes on-line trying to get the stuff before the scalpers. In TRU's case,It's not only the customers that are scalpers,it's also the TRU store employees/managers/supervisors who are Scalpers.

Ah, ok. Cool, $120, not insane. Also means I didn't pay tax at SDCC.
Huh, ok, so this year is the first US numbering for Masterpiece, how weird.
See, that one's a camcorder, that one's a camera, that one's a phone, and they're doing "Speak no evil, See no evil, Hear no evil", get it?

I was wondering if they charged tax at the SDCC Convention for SDCC Metroplex,SDCC MP Soundwave & SDCC MP Acidstorm,Thanks for answering this question of mine,I meant to ask it weeks ago,but I forgot.

All the HTS prices include tax, and EE did the same but kept retail pricing. And that's quite a difference on some of these.

A buddy found some MP SWs on the other side of LA at TRU Los Feliz for $132, Acid Storm for $82. Doesn't seem to be company-wide, but I can see that coming.

Depending on the state,the TRU store is located,The prices for items go up or down. The TRU store in NYC Manhattan in Times Square charges 15%+ for their items compared to other TRU stores in other states.
