US & JP Masterpiece speculations, rumours & wish-lists

I really can throw a seeker across the room seriously.
They either release all of them and stop playing this time waster with crapy decepticons. Hasbro is releasing tru starscream so that was expected.

Surprised hound isn't mentioned. Jazz would be my pick. I can't be stuffed with megatron as there will be firearms issues.

There is NO limit as to how many names you can enter in the "Other" bar. I used to enter the name of every first year Transformer who hasn't been made as an MP yet...

Here's a question for you Goki, How is Subaru pronounced officially.

I been hearing Subaru as it is in Asian countries and In US/Aus Suburu is used? Which is right?

Replied here.

I just filled out the survey forms with SS and Exhaust and it asks what characters you would like to see in the future. Multiple choices accepted. Good news, is they listed Victory Leo as a possible character, alongside Perceptor, Ironhide and others. No Galvatron. In fact very few Decepticons at all...

The option for Perceptor, Ironhide/Ratchet, and even gestalts has been around since at least MP Soundwave/Cassettrons (early 2013). The option for MP Victory Leo first appeared last year on MP20 Wheeljack's survey.

suggesting super ginrai means... god bomber is gonna be a follow up/separate item

it would be so much better if they would just offer God Ginrai instead...

and that would be fantastic next to a victory sabre

bring them on!

[Tober]

Were Bumble, Wheeljack, Ultra Magnus and Tracks options previously?

I wouldn't mind seeing an improved seeker mold. :P

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

MP Predaking? That's an actual option?

Damn, I've got to start doing these surveys.

I wouldn't mind seeing some different Decepticons altogether as opposed to yet another version of Starscream and the others

The odds of them actually doing this would improve if people actually go on vote (or nominate) these characters on the online survey! (same with other JP TF lines) -- this is the very reason why I created the How to answer the Takara-TOMY online feedback survey thread back in 2008! Unfortunately TakaraTOMY's gone and geoblocked non-Japanese IPs since last November, but those of you who are in Japan can certainly still participate (and I've been told anyone w/ a VPN should be able to get around the geoblockage too).

P.S.: Would any of our Japan-based members here be willing to consider calling TakaraTOMY's customer call centre to make further requests for them to remove the geoblock on their online survey? I've already called them twice last December, and obviously each time is the cost of an international phone call for me... plus it may sound better if more than just one person submitted this request instead of the same person all the time. They would understandably be less willing to act if they thought that I was the only person in the world who cared about this.

Yes.

I honestly see it as a roadblock in making real decepticons.

A Masterpiece Unicron would be AMAZING!!!! :P :P

But ridiculously expensive...

I think they need a Masterpiece Ratchet and Ironhide though
