This new listing is for a new Movie Masterpiece figure, labelled as "Movie Masterpiece 2", and the listing has the price for £119.99, which comes out to $147.88 USD, which is about what the new Movie Masterpiece Starscream figure is set to retail for at Target. Now what's important to note here is that Abgee has a second listing for a Movie Masterpiece figure that also includes no description, which is labelled as "Movie Masterpiece 1" and is retailing for £149.99, or around $185 USD. Now considering 1 and 2 might mean first and second Masterpiece to come out this year, and given the price compared to other stores for the otherwise Target-exclusive Starscream, it would be safe to guess that the "1" listing would be for Starscream, and that the "2" listing is actually for a different Masterpiece figure.
Now since it looks like we are settling in on a path to get roughly 2 Movie Masterpiece figures a year, and after last year's 1 Autobot 1 Decepticon rule, a good guess as to who this listing could be would be Ratchet, the final member of the original 2007 Autobot cast. But again, this is all speculation based on this listing, so take it all with a few grains of salt.
Let us know what you think of this listing below, and if you think we have a new Movie Masterpiece Ratchet or other figure on the way!

Well in that case....
Still, camo Screamers will be sooner or later.

Watch them throw a curve ball and this is actually the start of the Movie Masterpiece Constructicons... And they release one piece a year.
It's probably Rachet though...

Seriously doubt it, and I doubt we will get a tatto Starscream in the next few years.
The way they have gone so far, no dupes, no repaints, no do-overs (except if you count MPM-1 and 2). A tattoo Starscream would likely be after they have finished the movie 1 cons, and I doubt an Ironhide will come until they do a Dark of the Moon one with new weapons, but even then no new mold.

You do realise they won't do that, to them, 07 Ironhide is done and dusted. Your best hope is a sequel movie version released down the line, but for now, that's the lot.

50% is better than any other line to date.
If anyone cares to do the maths, What completion percentage is G1 currently at, within the MP collection? Given we have Post Movie characters, Star Saber etc All of it, not just season one or two.

There's official Has/Tak conehead MPs?
If there was a MPM Blackout, I'd wager he would be $200+ given his size.

Yep, I have thrust. They were official but exclusives to diff places in asia me thinks from memory.

21 Masterpiece toys
Percent complete: 47.72%
42 Season 2 characters
9 Masterpiece toys
Percent complete:21.42%
50 Season 3 characters
4 Masterpiece toys
Percent complete: 8%
32 Season 4 Characters
1 Masterpiece Toy (MP Firebolt who isn't listed but should be.)
Percent complete: 3.125%
I realise this last category needs some tweaking as aside from Firebolt, the other target masters and headmasters aren't counted either, so season 4 percent will be even lower.
Edit: the season 1 count is actually a little bit higher if you account for the UW Constructicons, being designed to be as close to Masterpiece as they were going to get at the time. You're milage may vary with it though.

He might still end up with a compromised underbelly. It's the side most people care the least about in a figure, and even an MP might not be able to find anywhere to put the panels to cover it.-Kanrabat- wrote:I'd want a MPM Blackout. As long that it doesn't have a gutted underbelly in copter mode like the SS leader.

I have zero attachment or interest in Raiden, so I see it as taking slots away from other characters I'd much rather have in MP form.

I see, I'm actually really excited for this, it's a guy who has never gotten a toy outside of his G1 toy, and it's super cool that they are diving that deep for the first MP Combiner

I didn't realize Ironhidensh was a goatherder...especially of floating goats.
Anyway... I have a question for everyone: do you consider and treat your MPs like the rest of your collection or do they get special treatment?

Most of mine are in my detolf, they are treated a bit more special that way since they don't really scale with anything else and aren't really designed to go anywhere else.
my Beast Wars MPs are on the Beast shelf, filling in holes in the collection. and then MP-10 Ghostbuster Prime is on the Ghostbusters shelf

Meh, I tend to put my MPs together if there is more than one versions. Like for Optimus, Megatron, Starscream... That include 3P "MPs". But most are on the shelf with other generations of the same character. As in my MP Bees are in the Hive, MP Ultra Magnus is with his G1 and Siege self, ECT.

They don't get transformed as much so I usually display them next to a vehicle mode toy version. Diaclone or none show mps tend to get a decepticon sticker (road rage, tiger tracks etc) on them and go on a repurposed autobot display.
My mps get to 'adopt' other bots that stand next to them because they have no one to display with/incomplete (orthia fembots, artic megs, red wing, voyager brainstorm). Grimlock would join his third party team mates in bot mode or be Dino mode with g1 stuff but he's in storage with g1 and never met his team mates yet! 3p dinobots did get the most transformation/changes for display but since a leg fell off scoria during a transformation I don't tend to any more (think it's a case of a screws thread being damaged/simplish repair).

My City Bot displays are for my mold variants and I have a separate Masterpiece shelf. Currently, Hot Rodimus stands among half a dozen from the Beast Wars.

Yes. "Special," "expensive" or whichever you prefer always engenders preferential treatment. If I decide not to display my Generations stuff, I'll throw them into a box. The Masterpiece figures, should they not be displayed get transformed where necessary and stored in their packages, which are also painstakingly maintained.
As I'm about to finally acquire MP-44, my MP-10 will be going back in his box.
