    MP-10. New Optimus Prime. Pretty much set the standard for the current crop of masterpiece toys. I also love the complexity of his transformation.

    I will go MP 4 for now, more metal, bigger and correct scaling to binaltech and MP 2. Takara didn't need to make the other new cars smaller, imo it was where I stopped collecting. So now I just buy only mp pieces that appeal to me, and for now is soundwave.

    for me, it's gotta be the new thundercracker. i picked up one when he was released here and the colours and the new parts make him stand out from all the other seekers but runner up has to be MP-4.

    MP-11 for sure. Looks fantastic and has that real G1 cartoon nostalgia
    All hail Starscream !!!

    But Soundwave would be a close second, almost perfect figure (even my wife likes that one)

    Why am i not surprised?

    My favourite would be MP10, followed by Red Alert-the Lambo is drop dead gorgeous and the mental-collapse accessories are just pure awesome.

    Yomtov-style King Grimlock. Nothing else comes close.

    Grimlock is my favorite MP. A dino/robot best combination ever. Topped of with a crown (hasbro version).

    I loved MP1 when it first came out I bought the Hasbro one at first and later MP2 and 4. It's heavy, big and loaded with gimmicks. I was excited at getting MP3 since it was a new mold but disappointed that they changed his color and strayed too far from his cartoon model. MP5 was awesome such an ambitious design but it does have his faults always afraid I'm going to break something transforming him. After MP5 my interest in Transformers waned and I skipped MP6-9.

    Got back into it with MP10 (Hasbro), at first I didn't like that he was smaller and less die-cast but after having and playing around with him I really started to appreciate his design he is much closer to the cartoon model and the addition of roller and his trailer is great. I also think his gun seems kinda small and looks a little off with all the joints to fold it up, but it is cool that you can store it in his back. MP11 is what MP3 should have been no question the retooled parts are a nice addition but at his core he's still got MP3's engineering and it really shows when comparing his design to MP10/13. Just feels so flimsy and fragile while the other 2 are solid and transform smoothly.

    Soundwave is by far the best MP to date in design and his tape gimmicks are awesome. He is expensive but you do get a lot for what you pay and especially with the hasbro version that will be an absolute bargain. He would be my pick for best MP so far.

    Now if they could release a REAL MP Ultra Magnus I'd love to have it, as well as a new Skywarp based on MP11.
