Masterpiece MP-20 speculation (from JP Toy Show)

Sounds like it could be Wheeljack? That would be neat.

I would absolutely love for it to be Wheeljack!

Am I remembering something correctly about Tak Tom saying something about releasing 2 big MPs per year and multiple smaller MPs in the same year? Or was that just this year?

If it's the case we might see Ultra Magnus and Megatron as big MPs and maybe Wheeljack, Jazz and Mirage as smaller.

While i'd welcome a Jazz or a Wheeljack - Lets see you squeeze 6 repaints each out of those molds TT- i'm not limiting myself to the 'difficult to acquire licencing' concept to Jazz or Bumble. There were quite a few manufacturers vehicle modes used in the cartoon etc where licencing issues may not be documented as well as VW's.
If we were to complete the '84 car line up we'd need licencing or use existing agreements from: Mitsubishi, VW, Ligier (Designed by Gerard Ducarouge), Lancia, Toyota, Nissan and Lamborghini, the last two already being used. Chevrolet and Honda if you want to include the '84-85 cars.

Jazz and Bumblebee are traditionally the "impossible to acquire licencing" dudes, but I would assume that Wheeljack and Mirage would be tricky as well.
