Where's the repaint value?

Nissan deal will give us:
Bluestreak
Prowl
Smokescreen

Expect to see another two or three repaints of Sideswipe. If Takara can expect us to pay $300 for a figure of Prime's corpse, Deepcover and Clampdown are more than reasonable expectations, then there's Tigertracks, G2 Sidewipe etc etc

Coneheads:
Dirge
Ramjet
Thrust

Theoretically, we could get 9 figures from just 2 molds, I'm not holding my breath for all 5 Dinobots, Magnus, maybe, but not until they've milked the MP10 mold to an inch of it's life.

I'm just hoping for either the remaining two seekers in their V2 "de-Kawamori-fied" version molds, and Sunstreaker.

they've done 6 moulds this year: Soundwave, Rumble/Frenzy, Ravage, Laserbeak, Sideswipe and...ummm...Optimus?

I picked up the Hasbro MP Optimus, Hasbro Thundercracker and Takara MP Sideswipe (Lamborg).

Here's who I'd love to see:

1) Shockwave - Very underrepresented in toy lines considering what a popular character he is. MP Shockwave would sell well for sure.

2) Hound - An MP size Jeep mold would be awesome.

3) Galvatron - I'd love to have an MP Glavatron to put next to my MP Megatron

3) Dinobots - Who wouldn't want MP versions of Slag, Swoop, Snarl and Sludge?

4) MP Megatron - It might be time to make another Megs that's more in scale with MP 10.

I'm praying for a Megatron Version 2, mainly. What would be cool is if they had the initiative to make Punch/Counterpunch.

I think a Tiger Tracks repaint would be simply bitchin'...'nuff said!

i think we can all agree perceptor would just be beautiful

Not beautiful enough to take priority over a Megatron Version 2 or Galvatron, though.

no arguing there. We are in need of a Megatron Version 2. Galvatron would be freaking awesome too

Indeed, a smaller sized Megatron would be great, but if that happens, I hope that it will come with silencer and stock.

Seeing that Soundwave is getting a release, Blaster would be a nice addition too. After all, they already have most cassette moulds done.

I would love to see Galvatron and Shockwave being released as Masterpiece too. As for other Autobots, Ultra Magnus is high on my list.

Time will tell which we will get...

All those sound great. And please bring on the remaining dinobots.

What kind of timeline are we talking about here?
if all of these gets done assuming they come out with 1 or two masterpieces a year... 4 dinobots, perceptor, UM, Galvatron, version 2 Megatron, Shockwave.. and these will all be new molds as there are no repaints for them to be base off of. I think we'll have some time to wait for HAS/TAK

for now I'm just hoping for shockwave.

Out of everyone, I'd want to see an updated Megatron. Prime got one, so the slag-maker needs one too.

Takara mentioned releasing more of them per year (if they decide to keep with that model).

I wouldn't mind if they renew really the most of the old Masterpiece line, that they also make a new and much better Masterpiece Megatron with better legs and arms but most of all no Cosmic Rust.
