One thing to note retarding Sieges detailing on Skyfire, mot everyone liked that, as evidenced across the wfc range, especially with the TFtM characters in Kingdom as opposed to their Kindred spirits in the SS86 line.

The 86 figures are also super detailed, (owning Scourge, I know this.). What do you mean by detailing in this instance? The horrendous "battle damage" paint apps? If so, fair enough. I'm simply meaning moulded in detail.

I meant the so called 'greebling' which was used to give texture to the plain plastic. If they aim for cartoon accurate they'll stick to undetailed blocks of colour instead of more interesting molded details

Finally got my Reboost. Wow, he is super nice. This is what a MP should be. He reminds me so much of Sideswipe and Wheeljack, it's awesome!

This mold renewed my faith in Masterpiece figures.

Taking advantage that the yen was weak, I got myself Skids. And yes, that mold is still freaking awesome.

Masterpiece MP-53+B Dia Burn Out

Another Diaclone-based redeco with a new headsculpt. She keeps the name originated by BotCon 2015, with the "Dia" part having been the name of the mech's pilot in the BotCon 2015 comic story.

Cool. I like that they're doing these name homages like they did previously with Senator Crosscut. I guess that basically confirms that Lift-Ticket will be done once they get around to Hoist.

Let's hope that "Nemesis Skids" is not a TT-Mail exclusive. When/if the preorder pop in at Amazon.jp, I'll be sure to get one.

Thats what I will do. But @Kanrabat, this MP will still be available at BBTS, Ages3&up and other places like that.

At least there's that. Too bad that it will be more expensive at those sellers than if it would be at Amazon.jp.

Also, "her"?

Is that in fashion to take random bots that are clearly male looking and deciding they are female?
JFC.

It's been established for a while now that Burnout is female, it's the same with the Velocitron figure. This figure even has a new head sculpt that could pass for female.

Yeah, Burn Out being female goes all the way back to the 2015 BotCon figure.

There's no defined body type for these robots, and yeah Burnout has been a her since Botcon introducing her in their fiction, it's not new.
