As you can see from the images, Hasbro have given MP-10 a paint job worthy of the crossover, giving Prime the colours of the Ghostbusters trusty Ecto 1, but that's not all. Primes blaster has been slightly retooled to work with a new back piece that, of course, resembles the iconic proton pack. To trap the ghosts, Roller has been retooled, making him into a ghost trap on wheels. For target practise, there's also a Slimer figure included.
If that wasn't enough, the box that MP-10G comes in, also doubles as a proton pack for you to wear!
MP-10G will be on sale at this years San Diego Comic Con.
What do you think of this version of the iconic MP-10 mold? Will you be catching ghosts with him? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

Does US based pal offer a lay-by system?

Depends on how long the lay-by system would be needed

I actually contacted Hasbro about the Pulse Subscription to find out if it would allow for easy access to the leftovers, and they couldn't tell me anything, they had no idea what all was going to be included with Pulse.

It would have been even better if, instead of Roller, it came with an Ecto-1 inside the trailer.

Ghostbusters prime is rumourd to be 150 USD. Since it would be on hasbro pulse that would mean you add tax and (maybe) shipping.

$150 is what I've heard too.
And with Pulse, unless they changed up the way they do the shipping, he will cost money to ship, my guess around $15 with the taxes for states, so maybe $175 after shipping to US?

Does not ship to UK. But it wouldnt matter, their international shipping prices are ludicrous. It comes out to the same as using a shipping forwarding service, which you could always have used anyway.

hopefully when they get around to implementing international shipping it will be lower but I don't think there is any chance. Kapow and I. d toys probably best option but be prepared for £180 to £200 if not more.

It wont. They did it for Canada so we already know. If buying it locally is cheaper than the forwarding service option then go for it locally. It's just the name of the game for exclusives. There are pros and cons for everything in life. Living in the US gives you the best access to con exclusives but it also gives you Trump, 0 days paid maternity leave and expensive healthcare.

So what's the current repaint count for this here mold?

I'm kinda disappointed that the ghost trap doors on Roller apparently don't open, but otherwise it looks decent.

Still waiting on my charge, but I am really excited for him. all the in-hand impressions so far and the comic have both gotten my interest level very high

Don't get your hopes up. The robot mode is a complete afterthought. Man, they dropped the ball.
Posted by Ironhidensh on July 16th, 2019 @ 4:57pm CDT
My taste in toys continues to make no sense. Ectotron is very basic and simple. I transformation more like a legends class than a voyager. A little skimpy on the paint apps. Kinds loose in the leg joints and the hood doesn't want to hold together in car mode.
And I couldn't love it more.
Seriously, I don't know what it is, but this figure is pure joy to have in hand. Maybe it is the unique nature, but this guy sure does something right. The roof rack turning into a proton pack is a super clever addition that is pure icing on the cake. The guy feels like a member of the 'busters.
If you can, pick this up. Its worth the price.
Posted by D-Maximal_Primal on July 16th, 2019 @ 7:23pm CDT
But he is incredible, you guys should get one. Ish guy is completely right about how cool he is

I'm still feeling him as his own dude, and the GB comic is really helping with that! He really feels like he will fit in with them.
Also, he is kinda sortof like the rookie from the video game (which i love)

Even before the comic, I really liked that they made him an actual Cybertronian instead of the whole "piloted robot version of whoever" thing that they did for previous crossover toys.
That said, I haven't had a chance to get my hands on the second issue of the comic yet (probably won't have the opportunity until next Wednesday), but the first issue was a great introduction to this guy, and I'm really looking forward to seeing more.

Take a look at this year's SDCC Exclusive below. Click on a photo to be taken to the full gallery.
Transformers X Ghostbusters MP-10G Optimus Prime (192 images)
Transformers X Ghostbusters MP-10G Slimer (43 images) - Figurine
MP-10G is a redeco of MP-10 but features a retooled roller and a Slimer figure. He also comes with his own proton pack which fits on top his trailer in vehicle mode. The retooled roller now resembles a giant ghost trap. The colour scheme that now adorns Prime in robot and vehicle modes is based off the colours of Ecto 1.
The packaging is also special on this release, it features straps to turn the box into a wearable proton pack.
This was made to celebrate the joint anniversary of both the Ghostbusters and Transformers franchises. This is alongside Transformers x Ghostbusters Crossover Comic by IDW and Ectotron, who features in the galleries as well.
What do you think of this latest addition to the MP-10 repaint family? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

I agree, crossovers need more fresh Cybertronians who have the form of the crossover vehicle.
Prime looks fantastic! Here's hoping his price tag means he won't sell out instantly when he comes out, I really want him!

Seriously, I'm 100% with you! Though in the unlikely event that it does linger for more than an hour or so, I think it won't be the price tag so much as the number of previous uses of the MP-10 mold. I'm probably the only one who hasn't picked up some version of it yet.
