False.
Indeed. That's definitely a False MP Hoist, alright. :-P

Ok, Hoist has a MP-styled figure, but not an official MP figure. How's that?

I suppose that would be okay. I'll have my seconds withdraw my formal challenge if combat. :-P

You know, somehow this mold seems to work better for Grapple than it does for Inferno. The lack of a rotating crane base sucks, but overall I like the look of him a lot more. Perhaps it's the colour choices?

I like them both. Colour wise, the mold buddy that didn't work for me was Ratchet, that white was too plain.

But Inferno and Grapple have enough differences to be fun regardless of the colour.

Possibly, I won't know as I won't be pursuing that figure. When it comes to MP's I'm sticking more to the US characters rather than the Japanese exclusive ones.

It actually ends up more the opposite for me. I rarely pursue Masterpieces, but the ones that I do (save the eventual Trailbreaker) are the more special guys with fewer accessories but a lot more niche in culture, like SG Prime.

I think Artfire will look awesome in hand, and I can't wait to get a hold of that targetmaster!

But Ratchet was plain white in the show? The most an EMT based vehicle would add are the crosses, a red stripe and the caduceus type emblem which you can apply via the official franchise decals of Ocean Designs

Maybe he feels Ratchet was plain-looking in the show too.
