At that price, one assumes MP-10 will be trailer-less.
Totally bought.

So as we see, speculation of this being based on RID or Cybertron Optimus was BS and the original assumption that this was based on MP 10 is proven.
Sounds interesting, but not something I would want, I would say the gold chrome parts of this version would go nicely with a Nemesis repaint.

this is quite funny only because the supreme starscream that i bought from ebay complete for £25 last month doesnt need a $100 paint job

I don't think I need Prime with gold trim. Seems silly.

Prime sounds like a bust... Was hoping it would be the same as TRU MP Prime, just with a different box.

Wow the year of the horse prime sounds like he was designed by a Persian nightclub owner.

These figures are pure collectors pieces. Pass and pass.

Thankfully neither of these are of any interest to me.

I know we didn't get a redecoed Cohrada for Year of the Snake, but it seems like a shiny new Mach Kick should be part of these festivities.

Maybe it's just because the Omega Supreme remold was way more worthwhile than these two.

I just mentally brought the Prime. Now just waiting to get it in hand.

The GF Starscream mold is one of the best representations of the schemer. Though I own the smaller non electronic version, this is good for those who missed the boat.

Every Platinum Edition toy has been released in the U.S., why would Starscream be different?

Wait, the Year of the Whatevers are part of the Platinum Editions?

This changes everything.

Yes. The Energon Omega and Optimus redecos were Year of the Snake.

Are you sure they're in US retail? All I've seen are Ultra Magnus and Grimlock versus Bruticus set. No Omega Supreme or Optimus Prime.

They were sold as online exclusives. Amazon and BBTS are U.S. retailers.

Though, Canada did get them both at their brick-and-mortar Toys"R"Us stores.

Then I guess I'm moving to Canada, if I want to see these in-stores. :-(

Who knows what the future holds for these two.

Though, the original listings for these did come from TRU.com, so there's a chance these might turn up at TRU stores like Bruticus/Grimlock and Ultra Magnus.

I can't imagine for the life of me why the hell supreme Starscream is even remotely appealing. I regretted buying the original from day 1, and quickly went out of my way to get the Galaxy Force version to replace that massive waste of space!

Well, in that case, if you still have the Supreme Cybertron toy, I'll happily take if off your hands for a couple dollars. 8-}
