According to TakaraTomyMall the release date for MP-18B Blue Streak has been delayed from August 1 to September 29! Stranger still the website has Blue Streak's release date at August 29th. Rather it's 8/29 or 9/29 it's a slight delay and will be here soon enough! While you wait why not check out Seibertron.com's gallery of the original release of Masterpiece Bluestreak MP-18 here.

That's a fairly nice paint job the bot mode is sporting.

Jeez, I might have to buy something else for the wait...an MP-10 perhaps.

I was waiting for this one as I don't have a Bluestreak MP and figured the Hasbro one would be later this year. Now it looks as though Hasbro will get my money, even though I REALLY WANT THIS COLOR!!!!!

NOT TWO SETS OF FROWNY FACES!! Seriously though, hard to pass up. I mean, BLUEstreak would've been cool if I had ANY Diaclone stuff, but I don't :-(

I need to focus dang it!! Stop frowning!!

Why is BLUEstreak so awesome looking. I should get him just for the alt mode color. He's that good.

You made a wise choice buddy. Especially if you didn't already have the mold, and for that price. Any paint job looks good on the coolest TF ever made.

Well I have Prowl..

I have no ties to Smokescreen, and if I got BLUEstreak I might as well get Silverstreak. And then it's and endless spiral.

That I'm now contemplating...

Defo going to get this but am not putting the autonomy symbols on him.he will be an mp diaclone in the same fashion as my no tigertrack.

Sounds like a good idea. If you don't use the stickers, you can save them for collector value

Re: Takara Tomy Masterpiece MP-18B Blue Streak Delayed (1714536)
Posted by william-james88 on July 30th, 2015 @ 10:58am CDT

As is the case with all Masterpiece releases distributed by Hasbro Asia, MP-18B Blue Bluestreak will come with a Collector Coin. This coin will be Asian distribution outside of Japan.

That coin has been revealed on Hobby Ark Toy Store's Facebook page, enjoy the pics below!

I got mine coming too. I can't wait. FYI it might be sooner than 10 days. They just give you a buffer just to be safe

I don't think that UK TrU stores will be stocking any of the figures in this mold so Takara is the best way to go for us.

The last piece of news we had for Transformers Masterpiece Bluestreak was from the Transformers Asia release with collector coin. Today, via Alfes2010, we bring you a handful of in-hand images of the latest redeco of the Datsun/Nissan Fairlady Z mold as MP-18B! Check out the images mirrored below, comparing the Blue to the others, with special appearance from MP 10 Optimus Prime, too.

Too bad that the Autobot symbol looks tampo-ed on. I would have preferred it as a sticker, so I could display it with Tigertrack and Exhaust in an MP Diaclone display. My only other concern is that I ordered it from TFSource, and they ALWAYS seem to be the last to get their stock in.

Otherwise, he looks great, and I can't wait until he ships!
