This is great news for us Transformer fans. I will pre-order the Six Shot, RC, and start on the quest for TFC Hercules.

Is that the actual product or is it a pic of a custom? I swear I've seen a custom job that looked almost identical.
The product description says it is Takara though

I thought so. They shouldn't be passing this off as official picture. Thanks.

Quick way to tell if it is an MP-11 repaint or an MP-03 custom:

1. Look for gaping screw holes on the top corner of the legs. No screw hole = modified MP-03.
2. Look at the arms. If the arms have "jet kibble" on the wrists, it's an MP-03.
3. Look at the feet. The MP-03 had a simple foot on a swivel joint. The MP-11's feet are a bit more elaborate and do not contain any visible swivel joints.

A previous members noted this is RumbleFrenzy's amazing custom. One can only hope the Takara MP-11s is 1/2 as sweet as that custom is. But that is ONE custom toy...mass producing anything will have limitations, whereas customizers can any nook of detail they are "inclined" to design.

Still, curious to see what Takara's Sunstorm will look like over iGear's. IGear's Sunstorm is pretty rockin.

That's a custom, I saw it a few weeks ago on FrenzyRumble.com.

I own that custom. it was made by F_R from a Skywarp if i'm not mistaken. The official product will look nothing like this, notice the F_R Sunstorm has molded wings to simulate flames.
