If it is by Hasbro they sure went overboard with the "battle damaged" look.

Looks like a fan-piece to me. That paint app is way to nice for anything that Hasbro would do themselves. I never thought Hasbro would produce one but I hope I'm wrong.

I like the look as a whole but I don't like the upside down insignia in robot mode.

Thats awesome. Why didn't they paint it that color to start with cause real jets and not even that dark color. So who wants my Dark Grey Starscream.

The more I think about it, the more I doubt this is official. I mean, unless I missed something, Skywarp was meant to be the next MP, and I can't see them announcing another before he's even been released. It's also pretty unlikely it's a Hasbro release... I guess time will tell though.

I must admit, he looks kinda funky in his anime colours.
Then again, I didn't think there was really anything wrong with the first MP SS...
I do see what you mean Sunstar, it kinda reminds me of playdoh red. Maybe it is a Hasbro reissue? It definetly looks to me like it's made of plastic.

If this is for real, I hope he comes with a crown and cape.

I think this is going to be MP-08. With Skywarp already confirmed as MP-06, I don't think Takara is going to release two seekers in a row.

I still doubt this is a Hasbro release. Not because of the paint scheme or anything but because of the overall fragility of MPSS. To get past the toy laws they would have to toughen it up a fair bit.
On the other hand I don't think it is a custom either. Most of the custom I have seen look much rougher. Lots of thick globbed on paint to cover the darker color. This one doesn't have that. Unless they managed to do a really good dye job.

That's how they are in the cartoon though.

Yes, that's true (most of the time, anyway), though I never liked them that way up, myself.

Why would they be showcasing a Hasbro release at what appears to be a Japanese uhm.. convention?

Dangit, I JUST got MP SS too .....
If this doesn't have Decepticon Leader parts, I'll pass on it. (Hey, it COULD have the crown and stuff...... I'm a dreamer ....)

He's missing the fingers on his right hand. Anyone else notice that? Wasn't that a problem with the MP-3 to begin with?
