The long-awaited MP-25 Masterpiece Tracks from Takara Tomy finally saw release in early November. With various retailers filling orders throughout the world and opinion quite generally divided among collectors as to whether or not the Kobayashi-designed Tracks is up to the same standard as the previous Autobot cars, I decided to feature the new kid on the block this week and give my own opinion on his Masterpiece credentials. The sparkly blue Corvette Stingray, boasting three modes true to his Diaclone and G1 Transformers history, has come in for a fair amount of criticism as well as plenty of adoration. Do collectors have cause to worry about the perceived new direction of the Masterpiece Transformers brand? Is this Kobayashi-designed Car Robot a match for the Hasui-designed predecessors?

Nice. He's got some issues, yes, most all of them for me the backpack. But beyond that... I love him.

People will always complain for the sake of complaining. Heck, I remember MP-10 was criticized for having gorilla arms and the like (and the price) but when the Hasbro version was released (cheaper) all the high praise yet the transition had some additions and omissions as well.
