just doing kinda random one offs from now on.There are two lines, Masterpiece and MPG, and both have their own Ginrai release. MP-60 Ginrai is the toy-accurate version that is just the cab robot, while MPG-09 Super Ginrai is the show-accurate version that is both the cab robot and the trailer. MP-60 Ginrai is the final release in the Masterpiece line, while MPG is continuing with more releases to come after MPG-09 Super Ginrai.Hero Alpha wrote:Also I thought MP was over, is this one of the last ones or are
In the time since MPG first began, TakaraTomy updated their website to provide a more elaborate explanation for what the G stands for, saying it not only stands for "Gattai" but also for "Giant" and "Great", and not just referring to the figures' sizes but also to the technology used to make them.cloudballoon wrote:What I don't get is why end the MP line? And only going with MPG? The G stands for Gattai (合体), which means "combining."

「MPG」は GATTAI（合体）、GIANT（巨大化）、GREAT（グレート！)をテーマにしたこれまで培った技術の集大成。トランスフォーマーは次なるステージへ。Emerje wrote:Sabrblade wrote:In the time since MPG first began, TakaraTomy updated their website to provide a more elaborate explanation for what the G stands for, saying it not only stands for "Gattai" but also for "Giant" and "Great", and not just referring to the figures' sizes but also to the technology used to make them.cloudballoon wrote:What I don't get is why end the MP line?

Were those titles assigned to anything specific? I'm thinking Gattai is combiners (obviously), Giant is regular sized MPs, and Great is the seemingly new scale which is really just up-charged Generations figures (Ginrai).
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if we got some MPG Headmaster Juniors. We had leaks for years for those in Legacy and all we got was a non-Headmaster Minerva and the 'Cons.

"MPG" is a culmination of all the technology we have developed so far, with the themes of GATTAI (combination), GIANT (giant), and GREAT (great!). Transformers are moving to the next stage.
are using MPG as a supplemental line to Generations/CHUG/SS figures almost. Along with one offs maybe?Hero Alpha wrote:Like I was saying earlier here, and reading last few posts; the "new" scale Train-bots and Ginrai, sure seem to be Generations scaled. It looks like utilizing the past MP level of engineering or technology
The MPG page says "spinoff line", not "subline". And the MP page's introduction section at the top of the page concludes with "The line ended in 2024, with collector toy focus shifting to The Transformers: MPG."Emerje wrote:MPG isn't listed as an MP subline even though the MPG page calls it one.
"Yet", you mean.Emerje wrote:And the section for MP Hoist doesn't mention Lift-Ticket.
Because there's not yet much to say about it at this time, with more concrete info coming either closer to or after its release.Emerje wrote:There's also no writeups for those two MPGs.
Because no one's gotten around to making one yet.Emerje wrote:Plus there's no "Guard (disambiguation)" page that would ideally include DK-2 Guard, just a red link to one when you search for it on the page for "Guard" the planet.

I don't mean this to sound defensive, but the wiki is based entirely on volunteer work that gets done whenever someone gets around to it and feels inclined to do so. If someone sees work that needs to be done and feels the need to see it done, we encourage anyone and everyone whose willing and wanting to come onboard and contribute. In other words, be the change that you want to see made.
