Fear not! Thanks to Hisashi Yuki via Twitter, he shows off how this can be done. Masterpiece Star Saber's V-Star can transforms into a Battle Station Mode for Saber to command just like the original G1 toy! Due to be released on March 15th 2015, why not take a moment and check out Seibertron.com's gallery of G1 Star Saber to wet your appetite. Also check out Hisashi Yuki's images we've mirrored below.

I can definitely see the influence. I wasn't sure if it was intentional or officially the case or not. Thanks for the confirmation.

Ummm... No.

I just hope they did as well with the masterpiece Ultra Magnus I pre-ordered (except for that stupid red bumper in truck mode. I know it was part of the cartoon but I still don't like it).

To be fair, most of us vocal fans are armchair toy designers.

I think it was mentioned in passing a few pages back, by someone. He'd look somewhat out of place amongst my MPs if not for MP10's anime aesthetics.
