He really is. He is the best MPM so far. I hope the rest of the cons keep up his and Barricades quality

Almost there..



Nah, I'm kidding, it's not my goal. I did rearrange them in those poses since taking the pic though.

(Where's Skyfire?)

Never mind skyfire, why is Metroplex green in that picture?

His toy was sold in Japan by a rival company, so that artwork probably opted not to advertise a competitor's product (I guess Omega Supreme was okay for some reason).

The reissue of Masterpiece Soundwave is cheaper than Masterpiece Hound........

Greedy ass sons of bitches.

Didn't know MP Soundwave was getting reissued for the umpteenth time.

Doesn't that make sense though? This is the version with only 1 casette. Soundave isn't that complex a bot.

Also (in the eyes of a friend of mine, at least) he is one of the best MP's ever made. So reissuing him, is certainly no bad thing.

Yet much larger than Hound. I know your going to say size doesn't matter, but that's a bullshit corporate excuse (on them, not you).

Its price gouging, pure and simple. I'm still going to buy Hound, because I'm an idiot, but there it is.

Would you make the same complaint about the really big Cyberverse toys that also tower over MP Hound?

I'm also pretty sure there's more parts in Hound than Soundwave.

On a side note, I noticed that the older "outdated" MPs don't go down in price. Maybe for some used ones that people want to get rid of, but for brand new MPs, the old ones keep their value. Or even increase in value still!
Despite MP-10 being out for around 8 years already, and MP-44 arriving on the market, MP-01 is still worth a hefty sum.

Sold on Ebay:

MP-01 is still my favorite MP Optimus Prime ever. So imposing, and he have PRESENCE.

BTW, the axe for my MP-10 won't fit on his hand anymore, The rubbery plastic have warped somehow and it won't fit his fist anymore.

Number 2 on my masterpiece list. The Hasbro release was toy of the year when it was released.

I don't need any of these, but thought some people might appreciate it --

the couple in there that I like include Action Master Thundercracker and Marvel G1 Megatron, they both look pretty good

Slicer and Spin-Out (red Sunstreaker) are each a must.

Having MP-44 in original toy colors don't make much sense. Especially on a cartoon accurate mold. But on MP-10, it would be perfect. There's not even a Reprolabels set for this even now! That's a bit baffling.

So..... MP & MPM lines....... who will be next? I’ve no clue on the MP front, with as much as Takara has started to jump around, but I think the next MPM will be a Prime, either from the last two Bay movies, or the Bumblebee movie.

MPM Bee Movie Optimus Prime. I REALLY want that.

After Hound? Could be anyone from Jazz to Powerglide to Kup... So many characters in the original series.

I feel Hoist and Trailbreaker will get made relatively soon. They were mentioned in an interview, and there's a fairly cartoony EarthRise Hoist coming up early next year. Maybe it's a demo or maybe he was even "simplified" from blueprints that they already have for an MP version.

After the new Bee mold, Cliffjumper's probably not far behind with his similar transformation and looks. Assuming they acquired the licensing.

I’m hoping they finish Movie 1 Autobots and give us Ratchet. Although I’m not expecting too many more Decepticons aside from Starscream, but who knows.

I also really really want an MPM Sideswipe, he would look soooooo good next to all the rest. He’s always been one of my favorite designs.

Given the potential teaser noted earlier in the year, I'd go for this guy...

I don't think that picture is working

It's not a gif...
Alternatively, if you're saying you can't see it, It is Rattrap.

From what I can see there's nothing there. But I do remember that rumour, and the discussion on how much we'll be charged for the privilege
