Courtesy of the Cybergundam blog we have scans from the latest issue of Dengeki Hobby featuring Takara's upcoming Masterpiece figures MP-12 Lambor/Sideswipe, MP-13 Soundwave, and MP-14 Red Alert. Images mirrored below.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLL YEAHHHHHHHHHHH! BRING EM ON TAKARA!!!!!!!!!! Beautiful!!!!! I hope we get at least two cassettes with Soundwave HELL ALL FOUR WOULD BE SWEET!!!!!

Finally a new color image of Soundwave

And the G1 Lazerbeak fits in his chest... I wonder exactly how much taller he will be than G1 Soundwave...

How much taller is MP10 than G1 Soundwave? MP Soundwave is just a smidge shorter than Optimus.

I was wondering about Soundwave.. But this pretty much answers it. THX

He is quite a bit shorter.

So do Sideswipe's (and Red Alert's) gun and launcher NOT get tucked away in vehicle mode then? Seeing their size in vehicle mode makes me think not…

I am guessing not either, but it doesn't bother me. I would rather have accurate sized weapons, instead of what they did to MP10's gun.


I like the color image of Soundwave. Surprised no Red Alert yet. Perhaps they are still deciding on what color his head will be.

Roof mounted guns for G1/G2 toy accuracy! xD No complaints here.

Say what? If the G1 toy could mount the gun on top, that's awesome news to me!

NEED THESE. Seeing the other recent pics of Sideswipe, he's a little gappy from the side, but should still look really great from most angles. Can't wait for these. It's a good year for MPs!

Whoops, my mistake. ._.; Apparently the peg hole was only on G2 Sideswipe! In any case, it beats not having weapon storage.
