I feel like this is the next Tracks.

At least he could have come with Marvel Comics mis-"colored" blue Ravage / aka Howlback or something. Or Donny Finkelberg. Or Charlene. Something. Anything. Happy to complete these guys. Just so many other more prominent characters I'd rather see before Skids. Poor guy.

Though, thinking about this further, you get a few easy repaints/remolds out of this mold. Crosscut, G1 cartoon Skids, toy Skids, Diaclone Skids, etc. It'll be interesting to see how they milk this mold. But still would have rather seen other highly desirable characters like Jazz or Galvatron get a Masterpiece before Skids.

Well, at least Thew will be happy.

Come see my latest creation, a Galvatron Combiner using 4 SS86 Sweeps as limbs

Skids IS a really odd choice and there's plenty more I'd want in front of him. However, when I was a kid, my parents took me to the toy store and I got to pick out a transformer. My dad strongly urged me to get Kup because of the simple transformation but I demanded Skids. I still remember promptly breaking him with my fine motor skills and my dad being mad about it. Here's a chance for me to relive that moment all over again!

Sure, Jazz would be a more logical choice, but has Porsche given Takara a license to use his car mode? That's probably why we haven't gotten an MP Jazz or Cliffjumper. Or maybe some other company has the license, which is why we got a modified Ferrari altmode for SS Dino.

Either way, Honda, being a Japanese company, is probably just fine with licensing the City subcompact car to use for Skids. That also brings up another question... with Skids' altmode being as small or smaller than a VW Beetle, I'll be really interested to see how they get a Datsun bro sized robot mode out of that.

Porsche has always been a pain in the exhaust port, next to Volkswagen. The latter did loosen up for Bumblebee's popularity, but only for him, not for any of his redeco offspring like Glyph and Bug Bite.

Ferrari's exclusive toy license was held first by Mattel for Hot Wheels, and now by the Hong Kong-based Maisto. That license has so far only been used for die-cast model cars, so I guess nothing beyond that is in the cards. The supplier of the license makes the conditions.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

I think Volkswagon owns Porsche or vice versa. My Dad had a Porsche back in the day that had a Volkswagon engine.

The Volkswagen Group or Volkswagen AG owns:
  • Volkswagen (brand)
  • Audi
  • Bentley
  • Bugatti
  • Ducatti
  • Jetta
  • Porsche
  • SEAT
  • Škoda

Of those, only Volkswagen, Audi and Bugatti were featured in the movies, and Bugatti as toys for Drift.

Well, is Studio Series 86 Jazz licensed or no? Cuz his altmode is very much the G1 Porsche.

Unlicensed. I don't see the Porsche logo anywhere on images and video of the packaging, nor do I see copyright info of the company.

It's just different enough. Remember, the original G1 Jazz was based on a slot car design that was already a little different from the real world Porsche.

It is hilarious that Skids is being done before other characters probably more deserving but I am so happy for the guy. He is like the forgotten pre-movie bot, and IDW finally made him good. I love the guy, and I will happily get this MP to support him and his endeavors.

It's even funnier when you think that Thew willed him into existence.

And downright kneeslap LOL comedy: we got a Movie Jazz AND a Skids before we get a G1 Jazz.

I don't really get the fixation on Jazz. I think more on all the non-licenced Season 1 & 2 characters they should have been adding to this line instead dilly-dallying. Even I might have been tempted by MP Insecticons.

Thing is, and I say this honestly: I have seen maybe exactly 2 people give a crap about the insecticons, i think they, like the rest of the dinobots, are considered a risk, not that Skids isn't, but they are at least in the same category.

Why Galvatron hasn't been done is still astounding

That gave more attention to Hoist, though.

Skids got more focus in later issues, particularly in Issue #20 "Showdown", his standout appearance.

Still around 9 years BD, but kudos to those who did get to read it.

All the pre-Movie Car Bots are much of a muchness to me. The Insecticons, I see you point. I don't hear of their die hard fanbase. Bombshell is usually the main one given any deep personality at all, in most media.

I would have assumed a lot of the G1 fanbase had an affinity to the Dinobots though. Enough to warrant more than one of them being attempted since the MP line began. I wonder if the 3P Dinos didn't exist, would Takara have been pressured into making them already?

MP Galvatron... :(

Was going to find the Road Rage thread, but figured this might work better here.

I did get the MP Road Rage figure today from a buddy, and I now see what a lot of people were talking about with the Tracks mold. The backpack and floating neck do bother me some, and I can see why this was not a popular move. But having her in person, she is pretty dang neat, the alt mode is super awesome, and she isn't too bad overall. I wish she came with Track's flight stand, but I wonder if MP Blackarachnias works in the same fashion? I need to try it.

Anyways, I like her, and I'm glad she got made

MP Roadrage is flawed, yes. But neat and unique enough for me to worth pimping out in Reprolabels.
