Congrats.

I've got a somewhat smaller POL, so I'm waiting for some more stuff to drop ito it before hitting 'ship' on it. I can wait, though.

Just shipped my POL which has both MP Prowl and Bluestreak! :DANCE:

Can't remeber the last time I was this excited to get receive a figure.

I couldnt help but think of Ironhide and Ratchet when I saw this picture recently... :-(

Just got Prowl and Bluestreak, and they are great!

Didn't like the way hlj.com packaged them though... There was zero packaging materials between the box and the figures :BANG_HEAD:

Going to keep my Smokescreen pre-order, but if that is shipped the same way I'll be going back to BBTS. The higher price will be worth the piece of mind.

Streak is better in hand, might even be better than prowl.

Takara Tomy's official webpage for Transformers Masterpiece MP-19 Smokescreen is now live. Smokescreen is of course a redeco/remold of the previously released Masterpiece Datsun Fairlady Z molds complete with new shoulder weapons. Check out the official images mirrored below. MP-19 Smokescreen is slated for a December release.

A piece of G1 trivia: Smokescreen's canons were actually used this way in the cartoon once for a second or two, in the episode Golden Lagoon.

I was looking forward to Smokescreen the most but now I think that Streak is the looker of the trio. Still happy to have Smokescreen though.

I think Smokescreen has the sexiest vehicle mode of the 3, but Streak has the sleekest robot coloration - he just looks good. I'll probably feel differently once I have him in hand, but Smokescreen's face looks slightly derpy (despite being slavish to G1).

Bluestreak does look the best of all three in both modes. And Bot-mode wise Smokescreen looks the dopiest. His head never appealed to me, nor did his shoulder cannons, here here his chest kinda ruins the look of the bot, makes him fatter and clunkier.

Bluestreak, just looks like a neat robot, his alt-mode kibble isn't as noticeable as with Prowl or Smokescren.

It's really great to see more photos of Smokescreen. But when are we going to start seeing some photos, or even just silhouettes, of Wheeljack and Bumblebee??? It was almost 6 months ago that they were announced, and since then we haven't seen or heard ANYTHING about them at all....

They haven't been officially announced by Takara yet, it's only some retailers opening pre-emptive preorders. I'm guessing they'll wait until after the release of Smokescreen to make more announcements, since the Fan Choice poll has been the main focus of their MP marketing at the moment.

Smokescreen does look derpy in robot mode, but that's how he looks. I'm still getting him but he'll probably be the one I keep in vehicle mode out of all three. I do hope he still has the standard shoulder cannons and they're just folded out of the way, however, because those big tall ones look seriously silly, albeit cartoon-accurate. Can't wait to get him regardless. I already have some funds sitting in my Paypal account waiting.

This looks great, but I think reprolabels will be a requirement.

by **Deathscythetransform** » Tue Nov 26, 2013 4:10 pm

Looking forward to get my paws on him! I only hate one thing about him: his shoulder canons. they look silly.

after Wheeljack :APPLAUSE:

and, (of course we cant avoid him, coz he's everywhere) Bumblbee... :sad:

I think the next one who need the masterpiece treatment should be TRACKS!!! :BOWDOWN:

Takara Tomy designer Shogo Hasui has taken to his Twitter account to bring us yet another teaser image of the soon to be released Transformers Masterpiece MP-19 Smokescreen. This image gives us a look at the figure in vehicle mode compared to the original G1 car. Check out the image mirrored below.

man i SERIOUSLY CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS!

i'm super excited to complete the trio.

i really hope we get a look at magnus, bumblebee, or wheeljack once smokescreen is released.. it's weird that once smokescreen comes out we won't have any photos of upcoming masterpiece figures.

for the longest time it's just felt like we've constantly had figures made, pictured, and waiting in line for release. after smokescreen.. everything seems up in the air. hell, for all we know bumblebee and wheeljack might not be real (though i'm sure they are)

I wouldn't start worrying just yet. If G2 Sideswipe releases and still nothing... that's probably a good time to freak out.

Or not. It's entirely possible that Takara doesn't want to advertise next year's MPs until next year and that could be the reason for the lack of pics and info. Come January I bet we start seeing more about Bumblebee, Wheeljack and Ultra Magnus (plus whoever the fourth MP for next year will be (Megatron 2.0 anyone

?).

Of course that fourth MP is probably just Cliffjumper, not that that's really a bad thing. I just really want a proper MP Megs

.

I totally get it. Not that I'm not looking forward to that sweet Smokescreen figure, but I'm getting a little desperate for some MP-Bumblebee updates myself. (As you can probably tell by the Throttlebot pic.)

And lets hope that the line won't lose steam or get cancelled before they knock out a proper Megatron counterpart to the MP-10!
