A new image og MP-06 Skywarp has appeared on ACToys.net. The image shows Skywarp in his F-15 form. There is a noteable absence of Purple in his jet form.



You can see the original thread here.

Woah!

it's beautiful

It looks good. Alas, I've only got room/spare cash for one version of a mould that size

As long as there is still purple in the bot mode, then Daddy likey.

meh. i think he looks more plain than mp starscream.

I wanted the purple! Oh well, I'm sure Reprolabels will come through.

Indeed. But at least he's closer to original G1 colouring than Starscream was.

oh crap im poor now and by the end of the year in gonna be in debt

I'm with Burn. (Love the new sig BTW) Closer to his namesake than Screamer could hope to be (Roll on the Repaint) and while I hope this one is cool, I am already looking towards the announcement of Thundercracker! I want that one too.

I don't know what to think right now about it. I am sure I will get it considering how much of a seeker fan I am, I just wish there was some subtle purple in his F-15 form.

That Jet Black makes for one nice black jet.

Doublepost. Effing Bell Sympatico NOT giving me internet service....

Just have to say. This is beautiful. I loved the Screamer as well. I'm of the firm belief that "Hello! they are in disguise". Bright flashy colors are great for the Bots but not certain Cons. Plus Skywarp is hands down the best of the seekers in my book.
That said, I'm not trying to take anything away from those true to the G1 colorings. Hang in there guys, as always the repaint is just around the corner. LOL

I can not believe that Takara is going to make the same mistake twice by not going with Anime colors.

I have to get me one of those!

I think the plain looking alt mode is kinda nice. As long as he still has some purple in bot mode.

It's great- appropriate resemblance to G1, while passing as a realistic aircraft.

An excellent balance was struck here.

Now, if only the grimacing face was improved...

Sigh... needs purple.

I might buy these molds if Hasbro releases them in show accurate colors.

An actual F-15 is 1944 centimeters long, or 63.8 feet. I poked around the web and found this toy is 13 inches long. That's a scale of about 1/59 scale! Of course Starscream was usually depicted as standing merely about 30 feet tall in the TV series.

Considering their color choice for Starscream, Thundercracker will probably be white with red and blue.

What's with all the little white spots on him?

Thundercracker might be painted like a blue angle fighter. That would be the only way to make it look real and keep the Blue color.

nice!!!!

Is official then, I'm gonna buy one.
