Their alt modes look different, despite being the same type of car. Their chests look different. Their arms look different. Their legs look different. They have absolutely no physical qualities in common with each other.
MPs aren't based on the Classics toys, they're based on G1.
Am I the only one that sees zero logic in this proposition?

Ah yes. I keep forgetting sunstreaker's hood ends up on his legs and not his back, like the classics toy. Well, since they made a Sideswipe, you HAVE to have a Sunstreaker too. That pushes my hopes of MP-14 being Megatron/Galvatron way back

Exactly!
Not to mention roof chest, and MP-12's roof back don't even look remotely like it could be modified to look like a chest. The arms...
No, it just can't work. The 'twins" are just too different.
I'm hoping for an MP Sunstreaker too, but he just has to have his own mold.
Lol and sonicron is a piece of crap I won't lie I bought him because I got him for $25 and he's not worth $10. He feels like a dollar store figure worst 3rd party figure I've ever bought its the only bad 3rd party figure I've bought

WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I KNEW it was Soundwave! HA! Can't wait. I don't see why they can't put all of his main tapes in with him, he is a masterpiece after all. This gives me hope we'll one day soon see a MP Shockwave being that he's kind of the next main Decepticon (after Megs, Screamer, and Soundwave). Soundwave is one of my favorite characters so this is a must- may have to wait on Sideswipe so I can afford Soundwave.
Awesome prices but I'm certain that robotkingdom can get these to me for $100 shipped. I'm a bit surprised they are doing Red Alert so soon after Sideswipe but I'm not going to complain. If we get 1 cassette with Soundwave then that coupled with larger bit mode justifies the higher price. It's going to be a great Christmas. Please don't drop the ball TakaraTomy.
Watch the first of my youtube series, Friends Transform.
Can we now finally just accept that MP 13 is neither a Sideswipe repaint, nor Shockwave or a Seeker?
Also, why are people hoping for Sunstreaker to be a repaint of Sideswipe? What's next you want MP Galvatron to be a repaint of MP Megatron, or MP Jetfire be a repaint of Starscream? Have at least just slightly higher hopes or dreams than lazy senseless repaints.
Also the prices are pretty good, can't wait for Soundwave. I agree RK will be able to get this cheaper and faster for me too.

Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

MP-12A Alert MP-12B Black Lambor MP-12C Clamp Down MP-12D Deep Cover MP-12E Tigertrack MP-12F G2 Lambor
I'm telling you, this works just too nicely for it not to pass!
Fixed. Even though there are probably a few that'll call Tigertrack 'Sunstreaker'...
Black Lambor is G2 Lambor, the B slot is perfect since most Black repaints are labelled as B.
Don't forget my namesake and his G2 version. Maybe even a Punch/Counterpunch? (obviously modifications will up the price). Wow, he could even top Starscream in MP repaint stakes. Any other Lambo's in Transformerland? I'm sure there was a Lambo micromaster somewhere...

I would not want a Breakdown toy from this mould. His bit mode is completely different. Masterpiece is about G1 accuracy. Breakdown doesn't look anything like Sideswipe.
Watch the first of my youtube series, Friends Transform.
I just say it's awesome that they finally also push the Masterpiece Line a little with Soundwave and maybe also an Soundblaster repaint and Red Alert that's also a great deal I think. So I'm really excited about this news and look forward to this line.

so it's the best 3rd party figure you've bought?
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide. Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

I hope mp-13 soundwave comes with a little radio version of him self so you can put it in with other figures. Like voyager class and deluxe class and have him spying or doing what ever he does best

Mot to mention that G1 Sideswipe, y'know... don't have a limb mode.

...I give up.
For the last time:
Masterpiece does not follow Classics logic when it comes to repaints or retools! So stop using the Universe Sideswipe mold as an example for potential repaints.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one
- Jelze Bunnycat =:3
Looking for: - TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him ) - PotP Punch head - TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one) - CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad - TR Twinferno & Grotusque - Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

Maybe we can get a prowl repaint from mp-12 and a silver streak lol
