If this is the "REMY" that runs that awesome site

Sorry to disappoint you, you are thinking of the great Remy Rhodis from Hong Kong. I wish I had his toys too.

By the way, what I commented earlier are words from the folks at TFW2005. I'm just passing the information along for fellow transfans to discuss about. Please take the whole thing as rumor.

Thanks for clearing up the remy identity info.

I thought companies like Takara & Hasbro make employees take oats not to post early info anywhere nor tell their friends/family about it.

So how exactly would anyond from the TFW2005 board know about MP-11 thru MP-15 info. when most of the TFW2005 staff live in america & don't work for Takara.

The poster TFCracker seemed to give a good reliable information in the past and even the current MP10, long before we get the picture of MP10. He stated many times, he's not forcing anyone to take his words for it.

To me it's not a big a deal whether it's true or false. At least we have something to talk about otherwise the message board will be dead, LOL.

Galvatron and Soundwave are the two most obvious. And honestly, I don't want them getting TOO obscure. We don't need Masterpiece Brainstorm. Stick with the biggest, most popular G1 bots.

Bumblebee would be nice, but it'll never happen.

MY main thing is not the souce provider.

It's just hard for me to stomach anyone would know info from 1-4 years from now.

Each new mold MP TF toys comes out 1 year to 18 months after the previous new mold. So it stands to assume that each MP-11 Thru MP-15 will come out at least 8 months after the previous one. 8 months time 5 MP figures that eaily totals 3+years.

by the time MP-15 is created & released it'll be 2-3+years from now.
I didn't even think Takara would plan ahead that far in advance.

ALL I gotta say to add this ALL. I want MP-11 thru MP-15 to be the following new mold character TF toys: Sixshot,Blitzwing,G-1 Galvatron,Tidalwave & Shockwave. I KINDA WANT THEM, ALL TO BE BETWEEN 8 inches TO 9.5 inches AEC LEADER SIZED SCALE HEIGHT IN ROBOT MODE.

i would like to see jazz, blaster or mirage as a mp figure!!!!!!! :grin:

News Credits: 1 · by **vulgar_wraith** » Mon Jun 13, 2011 3:34 pm

A logical choice would be Prowl/Smokescreen/Bluestreak.Fairly popular and can use the same mold three times.With the cost of devolopment of a MP figure and the abilty to repaint it two more times after first release is a big deal.I personally would like to see a Ironhide/Ratchet mayself.I have a hard time picturing a figure in MP that they cant repaint.I'm honeslty surprised we got Megatron out of this.

It has,hasbro is releasing the takara 2010 unicron as a masterpiece toy & it's being exclusively sold by amazon.com.

the armada unicron toy. did have a extremly high sculpt & was very poseable. so hasbro labeling it as masterpiece in 2011 isn't wrong.

That is not a true Masterpiece, as Masterpiece Movie Starscream is not a true Masterpiece.

I think in the wake of 2 recent Primes, Rodimus Prime and soon to come Hasbro Rodimus/Hot Rod we need a Decepticon...'nuff said! :VEHI:

Maybe not to you but to others it is.

Point is,the toy will have the words "masterpiece" all over the toy box.
which makes it official by the company releasing it.

as long as that decepticon is G-1 Galvatron, G-1 sixshot, G-1 shockwave or ROTF Tidalwave then i'll be extremly happy.

For me add Soundwave with Laserbeak, Ravage and Rumble/Frenzy. Each cassette would have a sound bit that will only play in Soundwave.
I'm also for Galvatron and Jetfire,

by **Xephon0930** » Sun Dec 11, 2011 2:32 pm

I am still crossing my fingers for the new mold of Ultra Magnus that includes hose car carrier trailer/armor. I also want the carrier to have those grooves so that it creates friction needed to keep Deluxe and Voyager figures on the trailer and having a temporary Matrix compartment would be an added bonus. I am also down for a scaled Metroplex with tiny cars/figures to go with it include a certain mini city commander. Soundwave and Galvatron are nice too as well as a Megatron 2.0 mold.

by **Xephon0930** » Wed Jun 27, 2012 6:36 pm

Now that I think about it. Making a 2.0 Megatron mold for the MP line shouldn't be too hard. I mean the guys at Hegemon are also doing this in a sense and all of Meg's problems were joints for transformation were too tight and it felt brittle as well as balancing issues due to weight. Add in some pretty good ratchets for the arms so that he can hold his pose with the Fusion Cannon and scale him to MP 10,then we got ourselves a winner. That and making the transformation more simple and less of a chore.

I'm still wanting an MP Ultra Magnus and Metroplex(sold separately of course)but with Soundwave being released,I think I can keep up with the current supply of energon for a while. That and his Cassettes. I'm a bit iffy on Lambor/Sideswipe so I'll wait for the Hasbro TRU exclusive. I should also try to get Grimlock as well.

by **orangeitis** » Wed Jun 27, 2012 7:25 pm

I want an MP Fortress Maximus. But since MP bot modes are in scale, it would be 5 IRL stories tall and most definitely out of my price range and capability of transforming it...

by **Xephon0930** » Wed Jun 27, 2012 7:35 pm

What I meant was to have in-scale minis for the Citybots. That way,you have a proper Transformers playset.

G1 Galvatron has my vote too. Has/Tak could even offer the toy/cartoon color schemes, though I think most of us would go for the cartoon color scheme if it was good. Since the alt mode was always kinda sketchy, this would be the perfect opportunity to etch it in stone.

I'm stoked that Soundwave is on the way, hopefully this leads to Blaster too.

I'm hoping the new Magnus mold isn't just another albino prime.

Ironhide and Ratchet need the MP treatment, especially since Igear messed up the scale and keep delaying their release.

the Quintesson judge would be cool, though it doesn't transform, it could be loaded with cool gimmicks and poseable tentacles.

ARCEE: I know the majority of us would be screaming "SHUT UP AND TAKE OUR MONEY ALREADY!!!"

As far as Unicron or Primus... These would have to be the size of a small house in order to be in scale with the robot modes of other masterpieces. I just don't see these happening, but that would be all kinds of awesome. :BOWDOWN:

MP Soundblaster and Blaster can, and probably WILL come from the new MP Soundwave mold. Possibly even twincast! I like this. It means even more casseticons and cassetobots to be "Mixed" up. :lol:

But as for a new release?
Grab the pitchforks...
Bumblebee.
You heard me.
I love G1 Bumblebee's design. Heck, they could just release the unreleased alternators bee and id'e "bee" Happy. But you know...
Volkswagon...

MP Beast Wars Figs.
Just Megatron, Dinobot, Optimus Primal, and Cheetor
If it gets popular,
Waspinator, Blackarachnia, and turantulas.
The possibilities...

by **Omega-Supreme** » Fri Jun 29, 2012 11:32 pm

I would like

1) Rest of the dino bots (all of them

)
2) Galvatron
3) Ultra Magnus (new mold)
4) Scorponok G1 style
5) Metroplex
6) Devastator
7) the rest of the G1 combiners
8. Skyfire based on the classics version and not the macross

That should keep them busy for 12mths

I could list TF's all day, but...
If Takara does intend to proceed with it's scaling system, I don't see how the likes of Metroplex etc would even be considered. On the other hand, if they do decide to abandon the practice the MP10 scaling,(however unlikely that may be) then I too would like to see the aforementioned base/city TF's available. It would be a refreshing change to the cars and jets that seem to dominate the range.
I think currently Takara would be looking at the following for the obvious repaint/resell value:
Prowl + Smokescreen + Bluestreak
Inferno + Grapple + Maybe even an Artfire and TM similar to MP Rodimus
They're all characters that I would have no hesitation in purchasing. And again, it's only my speculation/wish list, so lets all take that with a pinch of salt.

Wow this is an easy, and hard question at the same time. So many characters come to mind, so I will try to narrow it down to my top 5.

1: G2 Megatron (Tank!)

2: Jetfire

3: Shockwave

4: Ultra Magnus ( hopefully he is a given, and not just a repaint)

5: Mirage

Why not an MP Blaster? or Broadcast as he is known in Japan?

by **Xephon0930** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 7:54 pm

After watching the episode called Enter the Nightbird,I now HAVE to have a Masterpiece figure of her!!!!! I don't care if she doesn't transform!!!! I don't care if she was only in one episode!!! And I don't care if most of her animation model resembles Ninja Senshi Tobikage(seriously,look it up)!!!!! I want a Masterpiece of her sometime in the future.
