For me I have no problem with fake elements given I spent my childhood trying to draw the cartoon Transformers transforming and realised it wasn't possible without cheating and squash and stretch, so I kind of actually like cheating sometimes. Ever since Powermaster Prime's cheating chest. I dunno for me it felt like the closest they came to replicating the morphing in the animation.
The fake chest doesn't bother me, The proportions do.
Quite tempting
Tempting indeed.
It's pieces like this that make me wish HasTak would give us a road map for knowing which Masterpiece bots they intend to make. I would buy this piece if I knew there was not going to be an MP Sunstreaker but I just have a feeling there will be one so gonna pass.
If HasTak do intent to make him, he'll be pushed back and back and back.....
That's the real trick isn't it? ;)Quote:

To buy an unofficial sun streaker, hound, or jazz now? Or wait out a few years for official product
Hmmmmmm.......collector cognitive dissonance much?
The way im doing it is, i'll buy the 3rd party if it's great enough and then if Hasbro or TakTom make it i'll have one in alt form.
For example Grimlock will stay in dino mode till the set is complete by Fanstoys i'll have their Grimlock in dino mode to match the rest and official Grimlock in bot mode.
make sense?
