    Picked up Starscream at NJCC last Sunday. Love this new mold and I really hope they do Skywarp in it.

    Thanks! After getting Starscream I was looking at Igear to fill the gap, but while they fixed the hip kibble the head is still too narrow. Gotta wait for the official savior.

    I'm actually surprised the first Redeco of Masterpiece MP-10 Optimus Prime isn't an Ultra Magnus.
    Maybe TakaraTomy is as tired as we are of White and blue Redecoes of Optimus Prime toys being called Ultra Magnus, that they've decided to actually make a Car-carrier Trailer for the MP-10 Mold that can become armor for the figure?

    Lovin' the new Optimus! I don't really care for the chest panel digging into the front bumper, but I can live with it since it's not noticeable in robot mode. Here's a pic I snapped:

    I have a few other MPs, but I prefer the older (pre-Rodimus) versions....

    I've been real tempted to jump in on this line because of how awesome Soundwave looks but I'm not really sure where a good jumping on point would be.

    Grimlock? Rodimus? The new Optimus? I'd be sticking with the Takara versions because I like the packaging and decos way more.

    Rodimus has a ton of QC issues. Your best bet is to pick up skip MP-8 Rodimus, unless he is a must have character for you. Pick up MP-9 Grimlock, MP-10 Optimus Prime, and MP-11 Starscream. That will get you up to date on the reboot that the Masterpiece line has had.

    Mp-08 is Grimlock and Mp-09 is Rodimus.

    Thanks for the correction OptimushedPrune. I was doing it from memory and didn't bother to look and make sure I had it right.

    Just got this guy. Didn't mean to bid on him as I musta been sleepy or drunk. But oh well. Mp01L. Just wondering which aftermarket trailer matches him ...as far as hi dark blue hues are concerned.
