I just get them on ebay, it's pretty cheap around $7 for 2 and $11 for 4, combine shipping discount from some of the seller or buy the lot. save on gas, trip, tax ,etc and get to use my earned, Ebay Bucks money. I brought it from this seller, http://www.ebay.com/itm/252688868787?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT $1.50 each, Shipping is $3.25 for the first item and $0.60 for each additional item. 1 car = $4.75 each 2 car = $3.42 each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got the one set of SS parts in the pipeline atm so we'll see how they pan first before jumping on more sets! That is depending how easy they are to get hold of later on.. And that depends too if the price goes up after release, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup that's exactly how I felt when I originally got the Toynami 30th Voltron. So I eventually got the Vehicle Force soon after that. 11 hours ago, Saburo said: Awesome display! Now that I have the Lion Voltron, I kinda want the Vehicle Voltron (Dairugger). In your photo is that the Miracle Metal Works Voltron? Thanks! Yes it's the MMW Vehicle Force Voltron.

Tking22 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) Well look who finally showed up... I also got some other goodies. Figuarts Ninja Turtles complete! Now I just need Shredder and at minimum four Foot Clan soldiers. The Rogue One Stormtroopers are the figures we should have gotten when the original versions released along with Vader when the line started, these guys are great, the double jointed knees and extending thighs are perfect. My whole MP Transformers collection is official Takara MP and third party, but there was no way I was buying Takara Soundwave and then the tapes all separate, this Hasbro Asia release comes with all his minions in one box like the Hasbro US release. And lastly I've been dying to get my hands on Downbeat, aka my MP Jazz! He's pretty damn beautiful in both modes, and quite hefty, the legs got tricky for a moment but this thing is nearly perfect. Once again, I'll give Takara's a look when they announce it, but they've got a steep hill to climb to rival this guy.

How's that rear bumper in person? It looked bad enough to me that I passed and haven't really looked into updates or final release since seeing that rear.

Did they improve the look at all or just left it as it was? I LOVE my Downbeat/Jazz. I will admit I think Toyworld Coolsville has the cleaner alt/vehicle mode, but Downbeat smothers the bot mode in the crib, it's pretty much perfect. There were no changes made to the rear bumper on Downbeat, it is what it is, it's my only real slight nit-pick. I don't think it's too noticeable, the whole back end is pretty small and compacted so it's really just the two little leg covers pieces that look egregious. Still the best Jazz you can buy in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree it's the best Jazz so far but the alt mode means almost more to me than bot mode in his case and I just can't deal with that rear. I'll have to wait for MMC, XTB or Takara to finally get past their hurdles for Jazz to see if any of them can do better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
