Masterpiece MP-17 Prowl and MP-18 Smokescreen Transformers Coming June 2013

So any news that these will be brought to the US via hasbro?

 

No. These haven't even been officially announced by Takara. And if the track records of the previously released US MPs give us any indication of a release schedule, it'll be at least a year after their Japan release before they hit the US.

Yeah, I didn't see any of the others when I came on the site today. Weird!

All three threads started around the same time. To avoid confusion and redundant threads, we stuck with just one posting. No offenses, we hope :)

In other Masterpiece news, MP-13 has arrived to the US and should be hitting PoL's everywhere! I'm waiting for those Kreon Combiners to hit my PoL before shipping Soundwave. Please hurry!

Oh not at all. I like ease and hate confusion. :)

Oh, and here's hoping for a Wheeljack MP real soon!!

And that is because Hasbro doesn't just release the Takara versions, which would be faster. No, they make them with cheaper materials and I guess the safety test takes awhile.
