Not officially announced, but we know from the design team that Trailbreaker and Hoist are being worked on.

Optibotimus once said to look at 3rd party companies and what they're making to see what the next MP might be. With that said I'm putting my money on a Super Ginrai.

I think we're a few years away from a Super Ginrai announcement since they've had fans investing a lot in the Legends versions. Plus with BW Dinobot coming this summer and Beast Megatron expected to be announced soon, probably for the winter, we need to fill the smaller MP new mold quota for 2018.

Victory Lio?

Sabrblade wrote:Yeah, Victory Leo is a BIG character. Star Saber alone was Combiner-sized in cartoon. Victory Leo was about the same mass as Star Saber.
I wonder if it would be possible for Takara to try to make Victory Leo as lightweight as possible, since when the two combine in the cartoon, Victory Leo seems to lose a lot of his mass when in backpack form, as the animation model of the backpack seen during the combination sequence looks quite thin (but not unreasonably thin).ScottyP wrote:There's a third party MP Victory Leo and yes, it is huge. If they make an official one they're going to have to rework some things on Star Saber because the joints on that toy cannot support the weight of the Victory Saber backpack. Sure, KFC could have made their version a little lighter, but I'm not certain how much it really would have helped.

There could be some magic in there, but MP Star Saber's knees and hips just don't like much else for back weight. Maybe some knee joints with a locking mechanism or even a new Saber made of diecast to function as a counterweight would help. Either way I do hope they do something that works better, because outside of using a stand there's not a great way to display the current option for MP Victory Saber so I keep them separated.Sabrblade wrote:I wonder if it would be possible for Takara to try to make Victory Leo as lightweight as possible, since when the two combine in the cartoon, Victory Leo seems to lose a lot of his mass when in backpack form, as the animation model of the backpack seen during the combination sequence looks quite thin (but not unreasonably thin).ScottyP wrote:There's a third party MP Victory Leo and yes, it is huge.

Well, I'm glad you're finally enjoying him. Although I'm wondering now if my pun was too subtle.D-Maximal_Primal wrote:ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:So I guess with that one little accessory, you finally saw value in him?
It finally meant i had fun with him. The mold certainly is not on par with my other MPs, but the saw made it more fun and worth it. I've had him for almost 3 years, so it finally hit that point where it was fun to have and play with

I am very thankful for that saw! It ignited my enjoyment for this figure at last.ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:I'm wondering now if my pun was too subtle.
I only just now saw it.
