    WHAT

    Also that's much more toy accurate than cartoon going by the details so I think we might be seeing another style change.

    If this is some kind of prank I'm going to cry.

    Google translate says:

    Wonder if "Hybrid" means something or it's just a translation fail. It certainly doesn't resemble the obsessive toon-style MPs of late. Is TT branching out in terms of MP stylings to include more traditional updates alongside cartoon accurate ones? Maybe it's to fit alongside the original MP cars?

    There's a Surprise!

    But I'm waiting for the next BW MP because next year is the 25th anniversary so I hope for something big.

    As someone who has read Marvel and MTMTE, I'm beyond thrilled that we're getting an MP Skids that's G1 styled. He's always been one of my favourite characters because of the original comics, and while I don't dislike IDW Skids, it's nice to have an update that's not specifically that version. This is more like a classic MP update, and it's awesome.

    Finally, me and all four other OG Skids fans can rejoice.
