Man, you are only a year younger than my Mom!

Thanks lil Brother!
I think we discussed me and your lovely Mum being almost the same age last year. :lol:

My 23 year old buddy from work came out to the tiki bar with us last night to celebrate, and somebody joked I was old enough to be her dad.

And since I'm old enough to be your dad, Son, we need to have a talk.

About where baby Junkions come from.

It's because he doesn't have the right pants for the job.

A new recruit has arrived to the Cybertronian Civil Defense Division.

Officer Cordon was given a warm welcome from his Commander, Prowl, and fellow officer, Clampdown.

Prowl: "Welcome to the squad. Things have really been heating up lately.
Clampdown: Primus knows, we need all the help we can get!

And of course, just as the team was welcoming Cordon, a call came in.
Dispatch: We have 6-40B. Burglary in process. Decepticon operatives have infiltrated the Autobot Hall of Antiquities.

Clampdown: You ready cut your teeth, Rookie?
Cordon: *Cocky grin, and a nod.*
Prowl: Bots! We got a caller! TRANSFORM AND ROOL OUT!

Clampdown: That's one hell of an alt mode, brother!

Cordon: Let's do this!

HOLY SCRAP! This figure is amazing! My good buddy, known here in the pub as Decepticon Finishline who lives the next city over came by many moons ago and brought Sunstreaker for me to check out. I knew then that this mold was fantastic. I knew I had to have one, but like with all MPs as of late, I decided to wait it out for the inevitable Diaclone repaint. Cordon was announced, and I jumped on the pre-order ASAPronto!

Enough time had past that I had forgotten all the wonderful nuances of this figure. So, he was still very fresh to me when I cracked him open. The bot mode is so sleek, and things tuck away so nicely. The head sculpt they gave Streaker was very disappointing for me, but this one is the tops! The body is a awesome re-interpretation of the OG toy, but with this head, has all the classic Takara design elements that I love.

The Cybertronian Civil Defense Division in Masterpiece form.

Man! It's been a loooong time since I got a new MP. I think Art Fire was the last.
Feels so nice to have a new, fresh MP experience. Especially one that kicks this much tail pipe!

Woooooooooo!!!

Nice write up Cobotron!! Makes me wish I picked up Clampdown, and Artfire, and that is all.

I really like him with Artfire actually! Makes me wish Cordon was a Targetmaster so I would have gotten him

Awesome pics, but....

Dammit, I might have to get me one of each style of MP Lambo... These pics show just how good they did with getting two completely different transformations out of the same base car shape. Just, wow...

I don't wanna say, Oh Ag, you gotta do it! You gotta do it! You gotta do you. But when comparing the two side by side, The Streaker/Cordon mold just shows how much they've learned and how far their techniques have come since the earlier MP years.

This mold really is a culmination the advancements they've made. It is a real treat, and an amazing experience! ;)^
