Apparently, it turns out that Chinese and Japanese are not actually the same thing.

Wait, did I mix up the photos? Dang. I am so sorry.

I really want to swap heads with a Thundercracker but he's got a shiny painted finish and Skywarp has a plain plastic matte finish. Urgh.

Just want to know if it's a limited run that has this problem or if all MP-11SW Skywarps have this problem.

I'll check mine tonight.

Thanks CP!

I highlighted the flaw in the photo below.

I know just the person to ask about this, and have sent him a PM to see if he could give his two cents on the matter.

If he doesn't respond, I know where else to contact him.

I got your message.

I have 4, but I've only opened 1. It has the same little bubble there. I would have never noticed it had I not seen this picture. Doesn't bother me. Must be common to all of them.

Just a question - please don't get upset. Why do you have 4?

News Credits: 115 · by **megatronus** » Mon Jan 12, 2015 8:09 pm

I wish the Decepticon symbols were consistent between the three. Same direction, same color, same outline. Oh well.

My two arrive Wednesday or Thursday, so... I'll also confirm. But it seems to be pretty consistent given the responses here.

Ah. At different times I've gotten two of something for display purposes, but that ship sailed when I got into Masterpiece.

That's usually why I have multiples of anything (because I sell figures). But with Skywarp it's because he's my favorite character. I usually buy 3 or 4 of each of him.

I can't afford 4 of my favorite character - Ultra Magnus.

News Credits: 86 · by **Powered Convoy** » Tue Jan 13, 2015 7:58 am

Yeah 4 Skywarps was a big punch to my wallet.

I may get a TRU Magnus if he's colored more like the G1 toy, but I'd still find it hard to go through with...and I'd be going off plan with my budget for the year. Yeah, I have one of those. :lol:

I kind of feel like I have to. The price points are exorbitant, but I definitely think in most cases you get what you pay for.

Still, for a favorite character the temptation to buy more than one is there. I almost did it with Prowl, but I resisted successfully.

i am surprised no one noticed what appears to be 5mm mini-con hard point on Magnuses shoulders :MINI:

I updated Masterpiece MP-21 Bumblebee's gallery with images of the coin and the battle mask in package.

I just received mine, Monday! I'm opening him today!

You know what these guys are missing? That's right Takara, their frickin leader!! Why Takara has taken so long and still not announced or released a new MP Megatron is beyond me.

I would have thought with the teasers for the 3rd party Apollyon (ie. no-Megatron) MP scaled figure, that this would have been the kick up the arse Takara needed. But still silence from them!!

I will just have to keep on waiting I guess.....

Let Soundwave lead. He was a better leader in Marvel UK G1 than Megatron ever was.

Good thing I didn't read much Marvel UK.

Either way, Megatron was just as poor a leader as he was in Marvel U.S. and the cartoon in Marvel UK.

That's your opinion, which you are entitled to. It has nothing to do with his (and my) desire for an MP-10 scaled Takara Megatron.

I just meant let Soundwave lead for now, until a new Megs gets made, as Soundwave's qualified to be the acting-leader in the (hopefully) temporary absence of his true leader.

To be fair, he's currently leading on my Decepticon shelf at present, so there's that. >:oP
