View Full Version : Who would you like to see for MP-9?

So we're all aware that Grimmers is MP-8, and he's arguably the most controversial so far, in my opinion anyway. Assuming TakTom fully drop the ball with him, we have to hope they don't do the same for their next project. So, who would you most like to see in MP form? My guess is that the next one will probably be a Cone-head since Grimlock can't be redecoed or retooled easily and make back as much money as the others. But for the Autobots I'd most like to see either Jazz, Bluestreak (with Prowl as a retool) or Ironhide (with Ratchet as the retool). Jazz would probably be less likely because the only character they could really make from him would be Ricochet, but I would like to see him. As for Decepticons, I have to say Soundwave, and chances are they'd make Soundblaster as the redeco.

Blue Grimlock? :p I just love MP-08 so far and can't wait for the repaint already...

I'd prefer they didn't do anyone that was already done in Alts/BTs as I think they go well with the MPs. A proper Ironhide/Ratchet could be cool. Or Grapple/Inferno. Soundwave's alt mode is just too dated IMO. A proper Skyfire (NOT Jetfire) would be awesome, although not much room for repaints. How about a MP triple-changer? That could be awesome.

Agreed. I actually am happy with the MP line-up as is, and would prefer they continue the BT line instead but include new characters and new moulds. A MP Soundwave would be nice, but the alt mode would be a very boring (and huge) brick. I don't mind displaying my Music Label Soundwave with my MP Decepticons (mass shifting in bot mode :D).

how is it controversial? its a character most people like.:confused:

Anyway, we all know Mp09 will be optimus prime again:rolleyes:

Otherwise i would enjoy Blurr, springer, Rapido or Thunderclash

I'd like to see an Astrotrain or Blitzwing, because i think they could really make the triple changer concept close to flawless with the added size... but think those characters aren't popular enough for it to happen.

In terms of character appeal though, i'd like to see a Hot Rod or Rodimus Prime, or Galvatron in G1 cartoon accuracy.

Shockwave.....

You can't improve on perfection. Shockwave is a masterpiece already.

1orion's Wreck-Gar suggestion sounds great. What I'd really like to see though is kelvin chang's Devastator officially made into a masterpiece so we can all own it.

Hot Rod & Galvatron seem the most likely imo as i dont see the point in making an MP figure of any of the Autobot cars without the proper licencing in place

Astrotrain & Blitzwing would sit nicely with me in the MP range who doesnt want a giant Astrotrain in anime colors:D

I didn't mean that the figure being Grimlock was controversial, but rather the actual figure itself. There have been so many people both praising the mould and condemning it, and then there's the whole issue with his height. You can see them all on the TFW2005 article. Generally though I think most people are happy about it, but there are certainly a lot of people who aren't.

...it's kinda 'tarded to condemn a mould that nobody owns yet. :p Hasbro would want to repaint it as MP Overkill.

But you all know what the fandom really needs... MASTERPIECE TIME WARRIOR! :D

Fortress Maximums!!!!!

Well maybe not, how about Chromedome, they could do the whole Headmaster thing right, he could have detailed cockpit, opening doors and everything.

Shockwave, Galvatron, and Skyfire would also be kinda cool, I'm quite bored of Autobot cars there are enough of them between Binaltech and Universe.

Oh Yeah! :)

An MP Soundwave who is his own Mini HiFi System with MP-scaled casettes that all fit into him at the same time... :D
*drools over all himself* :o

I agree that Soundwave would make the next logical choice.

But personally, I'd absolutely love a Skyfire. Even if they called it Jetfire.

MP Wheelie for sure, can't believe no-one else has suggested it so far

Yeah, Im sure Id wanna buy a wall clock Gok - it'll look nice on the wall of my TF room ( and it transforms haha!)
I like Pulse's idea as well of Soundwave With at least the 4 major cassettes can fit in at a time and then include the REST of the cassetrons with the pack as accessories.

Also like the triple changers some of the other members are suggesting - especially Astrotrain. We'll finally have a proper size to him so he doesn't burst apart when the constructicons unite into devastator :p ( looks at Gok for photocomic insert now)

:p I think if that happened, the announcement would go the way of Wii Music (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Uj0zV0UJXM).

Unicron.

Predaking would be nice too :P

All the others I want like Skyfire, Shockwave etc were already mentioned.

Devastator would be awesome. I don't see why they couldn't do a MP set of deluxes.
Although I would prefer if they used the IDW design for him.

I know it isn't G1, but I'm not a fan of arms and legs coming from nowhere to help the combination.

Motormaster then i could act out the scene with Optimus and Motormaster ramming each other :D and also the ALT's and BT would be in scale of each other :D

I saw that figure on display (not for sale though) at Ozanimemart in the CBD.
Looked awesome. What series is it from. I asked the dude who was running the shop, but totally forgot it.
