I agree, although the red version looks really nice. Shame the only wat I can get the white one is to pay £85 on ebay to get it with the red one. know any sites that might have him? _________________ Masterpiece wishlist:

Rodimus is superb. Is the Ultra Magnus one out yet?
Also, have any of you heard the rumours about the new Titaniums: G1 Shockwave, Classics Cosmose, Arcee and Bumblebee?? _________________ Masterpiece wishlist:

So robot mode is sweet to look at, but has some major issues with stability. Random parts needed for gun mode hang off hips/back and don't serve any purpose other then looking silly. The ball locks for the shoulders come off frequently, as do the ball locks for the leg/gun grip. Once you get him in a pose tho, he is a beaut to look at.
Gun mode is the real kicker here. It's pretty much everything you could want from this toy aside from being die-cast. It is really sweet. The only BIG drawback from the gun mode is a transformation problem. There are 2 small plastic tabs that lock the gun handle into position, and they are EXTREMELY fragile. I actually broke one of mine off during only my 2nd time transforming it, and am currently attempting to superglue it back on >_<. BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN ATTACHING/DETACHING THE GUN HANDLE OR YOU WILL BREAK THE TABS.
So yeah, that part really sucks, but aside EVERTHING....I can't help but love this toy. I don't know if it's just my love for the character or whatever, but I just dig this guy.
If I had to rate this, my score would be quite low due to technical flaws...so I won't. All I'm gonna say is this is a nice addition to any collection if you are a fan of the char. _________________ meh. |

My Magnaboss finaly came in yesterday. Great figure despite the fact that I broke one of the balljoint sockets.  I'm still on the hunt for that apoxy I have lying around here.
MP-Megs looks great, Cylex! I'm definetly going to get a Masterpiece when I have the money. _________________

I just got BT Smokescreen. He is fantastic! the paint looks beautiful, and combined with the sponsorship decals make this arguable the most impressive of the line from a visual standpoint (he is tied with Shockwave as my favourite right now).
Amazing toy. _________________ Masterpiece wishlist:

Hopefully my MP Megs will turn up today.
I've been on alert every day for over 2 weeks now and still no sign.  _________________ Masterpiece wishlist:

Like I said in the other thread, I finally got MP Megatron: a superb representation of G1 Megatron...I just wish he was a little more articulate in the arms and waist.
Now that I have this toy, I'm at a loss as to what to get, since BT Jazz is the only other thing I want and he is morbidly over-priced on ebay and every site I have visited.. _________________ Masterpiece wishlist:

I finally got ahold of classics Jetfire! Man is that guy ever hard to find.
I also got MP Megatron off of Ebay before all that 'cancellation of selling that piticular toy' business happened. Sure I might have paid a few few bucks extra but I don't care. _________________ "The paltry armies of the universe are but play things to me."

I got Jetfire myself back in February. Great toy isn't he? I love the colours and general bulky badassness of the mould.
I got MP Megs 3 weeks ago off ebay. Took forever to show up, but totally worth it. Even though he isn't as spectacular as Prime, he is definitely worthy of the "Masterpiece" tag.
Now, please release MP Galvatron with a ton of die-cast..  _________________ Masterpiece wishlist:
