Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-12G G2 Sideswipe Packaging Images

Courtesy of Facebook user Oscar Fung we have some of our first in-hand images of Takara Tomy's Transformers Masterpiece MP-12G Lambor (Sideswipe) G-2 Version. This version of Sideswipe sports his appearance from the G2 Comic as drawn by Derek Yaniger including a newly molded face and weapons. Check out the images mirrored below:

I'm so torn on stickers vs. no stickers on this guy. I love how that black lambo looks, but the stickers will really make it faithful to the original.

Of course, maybe I'll just sticker it up and hold out hope for a MP Deep Cover. It'd be so easy for them to do!

And here's another new pic of MP-12G from Hasui, with sketches of the weapons and new face sculpt:



Edit: another one:

Ahh, I did wonder how those spiked wheels would be worked in. Simple push on accessories.

There's a possibility I love Shogo Hasui just a little bit...
