More cassettecons makes for an excited Grim. Especially since I don't have MP Ratbat!

I think Wingthing is probably the most exciting thing in the set aside from Nightstalker since he's the only Cassette mold not previously sold without a much larger MP partner. Aside from like, in that one TFCC set.

As much as I'm enjoying the semantics discussion, I'm pretty much stoked for the eventual Blaster/Broadcast release.

I really want a Leader-sized Twincast.
It's very difficult to explain why and I don't think I fully understand why myself. I just... really want one. If it doesn't happen as a result of a TR boxset, then by god will I love seeing the sales on the not-MP Twincasts and Blasters from KFC and whatnot once the official figure drops. What do we call that effect? The Inferno effect or the Laserwave effect?

Whichever came first? Then again, even though G1 Thunderwing came first, the effect of the price of an older figure sky-rocketing due to major fictional appearance was named after the later G1 Bludgeon.

Wow. These MP tapes look great. I would love MP Enemy and MP Wingthing to go with my MP Soundblaster, but that price tag is insane. I know this may not be a popular opinion among purists, but I'll wait for the KO versions.

In-Hand Images of Transformers Masterpiece MP-15/16-E Cassettebot Vs Cassettetron Set
- Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"
We haven't heard or seen much since July, but it looks like the Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece exclusive Cassettebots and Cassettetrons - containing Nightstalker, Wingthing, Stripes and Enemy, which are repaints of the yet-to-be-released-new-mold Steeljaw, plus Ratbat, Ravage and Rumble/Frenzy Masterpiece molds respectively - is finally making its way into collectors' hands.
Courtesy of Twitter user sig_yan, we have a couple of shots of the full set for MP-15/16-E, in box, and of Nightstalker specifically as the new mold in the lot. You can check them out below, and head here for more information directly on the TakaraTomyMall listing!

Every time I look at my TFSource stack I wonder why we haven't gotten an update on this. I guess when when the orders end there's really no point in promoting it anymore. Apparently today is the release date.
Remember when everyone thought we'd be getting a Blaster announcement soon after this was announced? Yeah, maybe next year.

At the earliest, since he'll have to come after Dinobot (July). Not exactly a busy MP schedule for next year so far, with just 2 releases in 7 months, 1 of which is an original mold.

They look nice but the Ravage and Steeljaw molds aren't what I call Masterpieces when you can't open or close their mouths.

- Motto: "Transform and rise up!"
- Weapon: Fusion Cannon
You may remember a story we mentioned on Saturday, December 23rd about the Transformers Masterpiece MP-15 / 16-E Cassettebot vs Cassettetron TakaraTomyMall Exclusive sets making their way into collector's hands. They are figures of Nightstalker, Wingthing, Stripes and Enemy which are repaints and new molds of Steeljaw, Ratbat, Ravage and Rumble/Frenzy. We finally have more images of that taking place from various fans across Twitter who have gotten their items! Some folks are warning of fragility problems with some of them, so it might be best to handle your own sets carefully as well when you receive them.

When I first read "KISS," the imagine that popped into my mind immediately was of cassette bots and cons decoed to look like the members of KISS. Then, I remembered, to my horror, that "Kiss Players" was a thing Takara did.
