Just like MP-31, MP-37 etc... it's TT's MO for money making!

That said, I do like the minimalism of it, and it hits the right nostalgia spots for me!

Listing up at Ami Ami:

And with that my quest to complete the Masterpiece line is done.

i might be in the minority here...but i like it! it's a homage to the original toy! i was wondering where that alien mask went :p.

No idea why they didn't just do mp-32T(toy) or something like they did with the red alert anime version.

I hope that's not all the accessories thou...i loved the faces mp-32 came with!

The deco is primarily based on the BWII movie deco (which overlaps with the toy):

Yeah, they should've at least included the bot mode screamy face, would've looked awesome compared to the original toy artwork:

Cool and all, but I like my show accurate over this. Easily skipped for me. Now if they do a Burning Convoy version...

Course ya can! Take a rat, rip the back legs off and stick on a couple'a wheels and you have TM Rattrap, rip the ones off a Rhino and stick on tank tracks and you have TM Rhinox. A new paint job each and done - piss easy!

If they could turn Generations Springer into Generations Sandstorm they could do the above no probs.

What a beautiful figure! And those accessories! Delicious!

The reason it gets its own number is because it's a different character.

You use that word a lot. And I always read it in Jonathan Pryce's voice. Every time.

And I haven't watched Tomorrow Never Dies in many, many years.
