I really wish the whole Blaster/Soundwave sharing mold thing would go away forever. Or at least make it so considerably different in sculpt, if not transformation, that they don't share any noticable parts. Makes no sense for the characters to even want to resemble each other.
Post-G1, they have mostly been remold/tools of each other. I'm not saying the MP line should follow suit, We've had enough of that with the Prime/Seeker molds already. But considering their functional similarities, they should have been made in tandem.
I disagree, especially since they haven't done any of the Mini-Bots except for Bumblebee to date. Should the vehicle modes be "super deformed" versions of the licensed vehicles or should Cliffjumper transform into an properly scaled actual Porsche that transforms into his cartoon robot mode? What about Windcharger? Should he transform into an actual 80s Camaro or a super deformed one?
Blaster should 100% have a unique alt-mode.
What I think is crazy is that they haven't done many fictional alt-mode Transformers yet in the Masterpiece line aside from a small handful like Grimlock, Star Saber, Optimus Prime, Ultra Magnus, Hot Rod, Soundwave, and Shockwave (though I still want a real world Optimus Prime truck mode if they do a 3rd version). Where are the 1986 Movie characters like Scourge, Cyclonus, Galvatron, Kup, Blurr, Arcee, Gnaw/Sharkticon, the Insecticons, and so on? I love the licensed vehicles, but I could really go for an every other new mold release being a licensed vehicle and a fictional vehicle.
