Shouldn't the matrix light up more when he dies. His spark is being added to it, there is no reason that I can see that the matrix would die with him.


See I always thought that if the Matrix is not passed to another robot it would be lost forever. Give it is included with the figure I assume it was not passed in this case. Not including it all with the figure would also work 'theoretically.'

Need to check some TF lore.


I guess I need to check mine too, but I thought in Megatron Origins, Sentinel Prime died with the matrix in him.

In the movie, Magnus died before handing the matrix off to anyway. It was blown out of his hands.

Just saying.


But it was outside of his body at the time. That where I was going with it. It cannot be inside a dead leader's body.

Longs for the days of G1 where we only had to worry about Megatron, Soundwave and Laserbeak wanting to be Autobots, Swoop calling himself Tracks and Slingshot calling himself Slingslot!

Huh. Well, as long as this is just an exclusive and isn't replacing the next 'real' MP, I'm okay with it. Although it worries me that we've seen 3 repaints in a row...

Hey, Takara, while you're at it with the weird variants, how about an MP-04T. T stands for Trailer. :P

*crossing fingers for MP Hot Rod/imus Prime*... 2010 could be the year of Hot Rod! :grin:

Edit: OMFG! Notice how the front 2010 page has flames and what looks like Rodimus' arm? And how 'Sleep Mode' Convoy could be like a passing of the torch? DDDDDDUUUUUUUUDDDDDDDEEEEEEE I think we could be getting an MP Rodimus this year! :D

Edit2: Huh, comes with purple Megatron gun. Nice little touch.

I also like how no one in Japan can spell 'coming' properly. :lol:

Yeah I'm with you on that one. Hopefully this campaign releases a lot less silly repaints before we get to the prized figure.

Oh for goodness sake! I am a sucker for the masterpiece line and pretty much anything G1, but COME ON! This is just too similar to MP-01B. It is almost insulting. I took a look at my MP-01B box (haven't opened it yet, but will someday) and this thing just isn't different enough to warrant shelling out major $$. The cost of MP-01B gave me some hesitation before buying it. But I actually told myself that one of the many uses of MP-01B is that he can be used as a dying prime (yes, I know there are subtle differences).

You can bet your life this thing is going to be very expensive. I can't imagine what it will to cost. My guess is $400.
