I personally thought that they were going more cartoon accurate with their colouring, and I think that they did a spectacular job. I'm glad that they kept the toon-accurate red eyes instead of yellow, as I enjoy the cartoon-nostalgia over the toy-nostalgia

Fair point. :)

I'd have to agree I prefer my MP's to resemble the cartoon more then the toys since I grew watching the cartoon and only had a few Transformers growing up. The yellow eyes was one of the reasons I skipped over the Hasbro Skywarp. The first Takara one as well looks off from the animation model too even the minimal purple they use doesn't match the animation model as much as this one.

i would like this as i dont have any of the jets and would prefer the 11 mould and this colour but it does seem expensive :/

You have to really wonder, and I mean it. why are they there available? lol

Here's my review of the MP-11SW Skywarp release.

Transformers Masterpiece MP-11SW Skywarp Asia Exclusive - YouTube

Glad to have an MP-11 mold Skywarp finally in the collection!

You know what these guys are missing? That's right Takara, their frickin leader!! Why Takara has taken so long and still not announced or released a new MP Megatron is beyond me.

I would have thought with the teasers for the 3rd party Apollyon (ie. no-Megatron) MP scaled figure, that this would have been the kick up the arse Takara needed. But still silence from them!!

I will just have to keep on waiting I guess.....

Looks like they are missing Buzzsaw as well as a leader :p

Nah, Buzzsaw is in alt mode next to Soundblaster in alt mode. I like to have at least one version in the other mode with my figures, so tend to use the repaints for that purpose (eg. Soundblaster, Tigertrack, Sunstorm etc).
