    Really digging Bluestreak, but am also hoping Takara doesn't forget to do Sunstreaker. Sideswipe needs his bro.

    Look up "bluestreak" in a dictionary. It means to talk alot, or to babble on incessantly. That's why he's named that. It has nothing to do with his color. The pre-G1 diaclone just happened to be blue.

    To be fair, Harrismonkey only said "When they named Bluestreak, he was blue" which as far as we can gather is correct - the original bible was put together using early concepts/box art and Diaclone figures. Fairly obvious that it was a clever double-meaning by Budiansky, or whoever, referring to the toy's literal blue streaks. This then became a single-meaning when the colour scheme was finalised.

    Seriously? It's the Takara Masterpiece line. The figure would not get made if it was anything other than the original. It's that simple.

    I highly doubt it.....history dictates the numbered release will be cartoon deco.....a blue Bluestreak will probably end up being a eHobby exclusive (or similar) as MP19B.....or similar.

    I think they could get away with even more... Toon Bluestreak as MP-19, then blue version as MP-19B, and plain silver (or chrome) as 'toy accurate' eHobby version.

    I'm thinking a lot of people will want the blue version over the toon one, enough to perhaps warrant it being part of the line rather than an exclusive.

    Hi guys. Need advice. Which version should I get if streak? The Tokyo show exclusive or the standard one? Standard seems to have the cooler shades of gray. I’ll be buying him tomorrow. Thanks in advance.
