The last piece of news we had for Transformers Masterpiece Bluestreak was from the Transformers Asia release with collector coin. Today, via Alfes2010, we bring you a handful of in-hand images of the latest redeco of the Datsun/Nissan Fairlady Z mold as MP-18B! Check out the images mirrored below, comparing the Blue to the others, with special appearance from MP 10 Optimus Prime, too.

Too bad that the Autobot symbol looks tampo-ed on. I would have preferred it as a sticker, so I could display it with Tigertrack and Exhaust in an MP Diaclone display. My only other concern is that I ordered it from TFSource, and they ALWAYS seem to be the last to get their stock in.

Otherwise, he looks great, and I can't wait until he ships!

Creds? I saw no submission, just posted during my usual social media sweep.

One post below your post? And you didn't notice? riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!

Maybe if I add an image of a scantily dressed female together with the article will warrant a second look? :roll:

Mine was delivered today. Sure is pretty but Takara need to work on their paint apps, particularly their straight lines!

The colors used for this deco really make this mold stand out, the right highlights in all the right places.

Got mine today. Dear god is he gorgeous. Why this color scheme doesn't get more use is beyond me.

I got my 18B last week and have had a few days to absorb his awesomosity.
You know how folks love to ask, "If your house was on fire, and you could only save one toy from your collection, which would it be."?

I have a new answer! :michaelbay:

Mine came in yesterday (I was in no hurry), now the Datsuns can all party together.

Pretty sure my cell phone camera is just f'd up at this point. Still a quick and dirty way to post lazy pictures though.

Seibertron released a gallery for MP-18B Bluestreak recently and while we hope that can give you a good idea of this redeco, we also have a video review here for you. This is courtesy of fellow Seibertronian blurrprime. Let us know what you think of this redeco and if you are gonna pick him up.

You're not alone. You know, that silver and blue was a factory stock paint job.

TFSource only just shipped mine today.

If I knew they'd be moving and delaying everything I'd have gone with someone else.

I've managed to avoid buying Masterpiece releases up until this point. This figure looks amazing and sings to my love of all things Diaclone. I have a feeling he'll end up sitting on my Microman and Blockman shelf instead of with his fellow Transformers though.
