    Cautiously interested in this but I would need a matching, in-scale Megatron? Anything reported for a 2007 era Megatron?
    I'm already waiting on someone to give me a Megatron to go with M-01 Commander. I believe there are one or two in the works for that.

    I kinda prefer the MP-1 and Binaltech scale for my current set-up so I'm only keen on bots along that size range... Smaller ones don't fit.
    This looks fantastic though...

    Looks like they applied a coating paint used in IT-01?

    Seems like the color shade LT used is to match the ON-SCREEN colors. Even the glossiness. DAMN.
    Now I'm wondering if has-tak applied this color shades and gloss, will they charged MPM-4 around Titan Class price?

    The ON-SCREEN colours are actually way lighter. (Not like Takara's or LT's)

    The LT's paintjob seems to be closer to the buster (in the fact of being metallic)

    I'd be in heaven if they'd all just pick one scale and stick with it.

    LT’s colors look spot on to his on screen alt mode appearance. The truck was a pretty dark navy blue. In bot mode the blue always seemed a lighter blue. That’s CGI magic for you. Pinstriping is different between modes too if I recall someone pointing that out correctly.

    Oh my...
    Could you even imagine a world where official and 3rd parties made figures that perfectly scaled with each other?


    What would we even talk about in these threads if scale was never an issue?

    Really hope the plastic lends itself to the fan mode backpacks like the official does. I’ve really grown quite fond of this configuration, and hasn’t shown any signs of permanent warping.

    Is there a thread that shows how to do that? I can't seem to find anything.
