    Wrong! Suzuki, and Nissan share platforms (simalar to Ford and Mazda, or Dodge and Mitsubishi), and Mitsuoka builds their machines on Nissan platforms (like Shelby does with mustangs). So thus far there has been no break from the Nissan family.

    -=EDIT=-

    Although I will give you that the swift is not a shared platform with Nissan.

    Skywarp finally has his OWN head!

    Japanese Masterpiece Skywarp had a unique face from Starscream. The US version does not.

    I may still get Skywarp. If they put out a TC It would be a instant sale.

    Right now I'm just getting Starscream. But yeah, if they made a Thundercracker I'd have to get all three.

    IIRC, Takara were quite vocal about difficulties (real or perceived) marketing BTs that turned into non-Japanese cars.

    It's essentially cited as one of the reasons the Dodge Ram was Prime and may perhaps also be cited as one of the reasons the line stalled (pun).

    I really like these, but more towards Skywarp than SS. Thundercracker should be a must! Hell, bring Sunstorm into the mix.
