Thanks to Maz of the Maz at TFSquareOne fame over on Twitter, we have some new official stock images of the recently revealed Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-42 Cordon - the white, black and red Diaclone Super Tuning Patrol deco of what will eventually become Sunstreaker in the Transformers toyline - in both Lamborghini and robot modes, and a variety of poses, found on Amazon Japan, via a news blog gallery here.

Those familiar with the MP-39 Sunstreaker mold will not be surprised by the toy's design, but might still want to take a look at the new deco, the shiny chrome gun, and the mean looking new headsculpt too. Check them all out below, and join the conversation in the Energon Pub discussion boards!

Something about the colour scheme really reminds me of the car from Back To The Future... :-?

This would have made a great homage to prowl from rid (2001) as well.

First off, he's a cop, and has a gun in his leg. ROBOCOP MUCH?! :lol:

second, he looks quite menacing. He seriously shoulda been a Con.

The close up on the silver gun shaped like the wrist rocket on the G1 version looks like it might slot into the wrist some kind of way. I guess it's not a huge deal, but I'd like that feature. I'm getting it either way.

I suppose at this point I will say I'd like to see something new coming (besides Beast Wars Megatron). I'm spotty on the mold reuses.

I don't even collect MPs cause of their price point; I'm doing well enough to try to have a chug collection. This, however, is fantastic. That menacing face, and that it's a Japanese(?) vehicle with text, I really like this.

Is this parts list from TFSource accurate?

- 1 x MP-42 Cordon Figure
- 2 x Wing Attachments
- 2 x Guns
- 1 x Bio Card
- 1 x Instructions

Not really sure what the "wing attachments" are, they haven't been shown in any photos. Neither has a second gun. Those are things that Sunstreaker didn't come with so it could be a clue as to why the price is so high by comparison.

Meanwhile the AmiAmi parts list seems more accurate:

-Cordon x1
-Rifle (Speed trap gun) x1
-Spare side mirror (runner) x1
-Character card x1
-Instruction paper x1

So I wonder which one is accurate? Seems like AmiAmi's since HLJ has the same list so where did TFS get their info from?

After the initial stock photography shown in the story we covered yesterday here, we now have more official images for the newly revealed Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-42 Cordon - the police deco with retool of MP-39 Sunstreaker, as an homage to the latter's Diaclone predecessor - courtesy of Japanese hobby site Dengeki.

As you can see in the images below, we also have confirmation on some of the accessories, such as two chrome guns, with one being more of a gun/cannon arm attachment, changeable engine part display (in or out), the writing "Metropolitan Police Agency" displayed on the left and right doors in kanji, "CR 03" of the license plate as a Diaclone homage, and a quick comparison shot with other police themed Cybertronian MP-17+ Prowl (anime version). Check it out!

2 "Wing Attachments" = spare side-mirrors.

I was hoping I would warm up to his headsculpt but...no. I really don't like that headsculpt.

Comment by kriksix May 15, 2018

I have warmed to the head sculpt, in fact now I love it, so not too disappointed that it doesn't come with alternative faces. However, hoping this doesn't set the precedent for the new MP Megs - that needs to come with all the faces.
