With the recent releases of Masterpiece Star Sabre and Exhaust, Takara Tomy have just unveiled another Masterpiece figure to wet our appetite and drain our wallets.

Takara Tomy Mall (Google Translated Version) have just revealed what many of us expected when Masterpiece Prowl was revealed, that being, Masterpiece Blue Streak!

This looks really good. Blue is my favorite color so I'll be all over this, like Vaal on Alpha Bravo!

There is now G1 blue Bluestreak toy, he'll have to use a Diaclone.

Well, do I have egg on my face now XD I still don't understand the need for this, but it does look pretty.

Pretty great, so far there is just one MP I need this year, meaning I can catch up and get the few I missed.

That is also Bluestreak but in G1 cartoon colors. There is also an all silver MP-18S Silverstreak which represents the original G1 toy. This MP-18B represents the toys original Diaclone deco.

I would pay the MP price to get the classics mold in this deco.

I need this.


Anyone else notice how it's Prowl's head instead of Bluestreak's? Not a complaint, just interesting.

Guess I will be buying a 5th version of this figure. I'm going to need another display cube.

Va'al was all over Alpha Bravo? That is disguising! :SICK:


I understand some of you do not get out much, but resorting to this is a little extreme......

The previous version was a show exclusive wasn't it?

Nah, see this isn't fair. I was prepped and ready to get my blue Blue streak last year as the Tokyo Toy show exclusive, like I did Tigertrack, and they didn't give it us, made it feel like a pipe dream. But now they drop it, out of no where, right in between Saber and Tracks?

That's low :-x

I want this so bad I can taste it.

When the MP-18 S was originally announced I thought it would be this version, and there was such disappointment when it was the all silver version.

Soooo preordered.
