Not many collectors get to own the dead bodies of their childhood heroes but thanks to Takara we can!

A while back we got to see some good pictures of Masterpiece Convoy: Sleep Mode courtesy of our valued site sponsor TFsource. Now thanks to Japanese blogger Alphes of the Higekuma blog we have a comprehensive gallery. Here are a sample of the images:

And, you know, the thing about a shark... he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be living... until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then... ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin'. The ocean turns red, and despite all the poundin' and the hollerin', they all come in and they... rip you to pieces.


Sorry, couldn't resist. One of the best moments from that movie :grin:

I ordered one. I love the MP Optimus Prime, I like black repaints, and this one comes with the purple translucent Megs, and the translucent trailer.

Makes sense now why that MP Roller KO clear version was made.

Eh, it's not black. The red and blue are just very, very, VERY greyish and muted.

I'm really on the fence with guy. Initially I pre-ordered him, but ended up canceling the day before he arrived at BBTS. On one hand I don't need anymore versions of that mold, especially one that is this expensive. I already passed on the black repaint and haven't had any regrets. On the other hand this is part of the 2010 promotion and is a limited run. It also represents a an important (and traumatic :sad: ) moment from my childhood. I'm trying to hold off until a possible clearance sale, the black version has already gone on clearance, but the fact that it's a limited production worries me a little.
