Toy Hobby Market exclusive Welcome to Transformers 2010 Masterpiece Convoy Sleep Mode full gallery n - TFATM - 07-13-2010 07:52 PM
Please use this thread to discuss the Toy Hobby Market exclusive Welcome to Transformers 2010 Masterpiece Convoy Sleep Mode full gallery n news story on the main site.
We are proud to be able to bring you a full image gallery of our latest Transformers figure, the incredibly long titled Toy Hobby Market exclusive Welcome to Transformers 2010 Masterpiece Convoy Sleep Mode (phew, what a mouthful).
This toy is the first offering in the Welcome to Transformers 2010 commemorative line that will also include a new Unicron figure and Masterpiece Rodimus. The figure were limited to a maximum of 2 per postal address and were only available to Japanese residents. We managed to order four (don't ask) and will have two for sale at Auto Assembly 2010 for £250 each. They will go on sale at somepoint over the weekend on a first come, first served basis. We also have some Unicron's on order that will be coming directly from Toy Hobby Market later in the year, so stay with us for more on those.
Back to Convoy Sleep Mode, one of the first things you will notice is that the toy comes in a rather special packing box that contains not only the Welcome to Transformers 2010 logo on the outside but a special message when you first open the box up. You'll have to take a look at the images to find out what it says, but we suggest that anyone picking up the figure should try to get and keep these boxes as they may well become collectible in the future. Each box is also hand numbered. The toy itself contains a profile card which tells you which piece number (the figure is limited to 2010 pieces) you own, which is a nice addition.Â
For those who thought that the toy was just grey you were mistaken. He is actually a very dark red/brown on the chest with a very dark blue head and legs. The gallery contains comparison with the e-Hobby exclusive Convoy Black version, the original Japanese Masterpiece Convoy, MP Ultra Magnus and the Western release 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime figure.

Transformers Masterpiece Sleep Mode Convoy is a great addition to our Transformers Prime collection. We just need the Gold Masterpiece Convoy to complete the set we want (yes there are other versions we don't have, but we don't want those).Nice to finally see Convoy Black Version on the site as well, even if it's just as a guest
