    Wow....if that MP Bluestreak variant is just with a silver roof....why would anyone waste their money on that lazy garbage?

    Well it has darkened windows now, too, so clearly it's 100% different to the original Bluestreak.


    Hehehe.

    Im with ya buddy,
    this is the bluestreak I've been wanting, i was never a fan of the black shit,

    i sold my mp streak the otherday so i could use that money to gamble on this version,
    and then today i find out this is the one i wanted

    i think it has been photoshopped, as another board member speculated,
    so i guess when real pics surface, we will see light silver everywhere,

    really can't understand why so many canceled their orders just because of this poor quality picture (but then again i guess we can see its not the disclose colours, so yeah i can understand)

    It's not about what the picture is showing, it's about what it's confirming the color scheme to be, and that it's not the Diaclone blue deco people were hoping/expecting when news originally broke. Picture quality is irrelevant.

    Does anyone know what that giant optimus head and chest on the three bar stools next to the mp bluestreak is?

    Honestly the Bearbrick Prime is the only interesting thing here, because it's so well-done.

    Am I the only one still keeping the preorder? Granted I don't have the original one so I'm not double dipping in this case.

    I'm surprised Ultra Magnus can carry Optimus' matrix without looking ridiculous

    I was curious too! What the heck is it supposed to be?

    I would have assumed it would have been way too small for Magnus's hands. Is it possibly a new larger one similiar to how Rodimus came with two?

    Maybe the "blue" Bluestreak will be the Hasbro TRU release...

    I don't have an MP Silverstreak.

    And I hate to say it, but if I was going to get one, it would be this version. I understand it being a waste for those who were considering double-dipping. But as someone who doesn't have one, this version would be my pick.

    Well, no one has an MP Silverstreak so there are no versions to pick from.

    Must be nostalgia for the original G1 toy or something 'cause after seeing Silverstreak...I want. I like the black mirrors and hood vents. The shoulders I think would look better if they were black and not silver. Will keep preorder...for now.

    Gotta say, I'm surprised at all the hate for Silverstreak. Where are all those folks who prefer the giant Amazon shoulder launchers for 'toy accuracy' - isn't this figure the perfect complement for those?

    I'm still gonna pick him up because I think he does actually look better all in one colour, even though I'll keep regular Streak in my main 'toon accurate' display. I wonder what colour Hasbro's TRU version (if there is one) will be? If anything I'd have expected that to be the silver 'toy deco' and TT's to be Diaclone blue. Ah well, as long as we get the blue one eventually... This is such a great figure, I'll definitely get the blue too :D

    Most people that wanted launchers either got the amazon ones or a 3rd party... I have the Guilty ones and love them.

    I might still pick it up if the silver turns out to be like the G1 toy, a much brighter silver than on MP-18. But if it uses the same dark silver, as per the mockups, it's just not different enough, and I love Bluestreak as he is anyway. But yes, roll on the blue one!

    I don't understand the hate as well!? Though I'm not getting it, he is more screen accurate of the two, isn't he? I guess the real reason is that people were anticipating the diaclone version and are now disappointed because the difference between this version and the original mould isn't that much to warrant them buying it.

    No, MP-18 is the more screen accurate. Bluestreak had the black bonnet and roof in the cartoon, like the standard Masterpiece:

    The Tokyo toy show version is meant to be like the G1 toy, which didn't have the black.
