    Default Masterpiece MP-23 Exhaust

    http://www.seibertron.com/transforme...nveiled/31196/



    If you are itching to know what comes between MP-22 Ultra Magnus and MP-24 Star Saber, Taghobby has the answer in a newly revealed Masterpiece MP-23 Exhaust. Being a Decepticon, Exhaust is a redeco of the upcoming MP-20 Wheeljack with a new head. The figure also seems to come two new shoulder rocket launchers and the Wheeljack Instant Immobilizer. The deco is based on a Diaclone retool of the toy that would one day become Wheeljack. It has also come to be known as Marlboor Wheeljack by most fans.

    Oh yes - beautiful and bought. Glad I waited for them to do something better with the mould. (Also, hilarious name, considering the car's former sponsorship.)

    I went to the TF wiki page and its already been edited from 'unnamed' Decepticon to Exhaust.

    I wonder if this will be like G2 Sideswipe and come with different decals cause I want to put Marlboor on mine.





    That headsculpt is awesome...

    Bought. And strange that they've gone down the route of giving him a new number rather than what they did with G2 Sideswipe or Tigertracks.

    And a much better accessory than a lunchbox

    The Masterpiece numbered line shouldn't have retconed characters in it. Put them in the exclusives bucket. And a Decepticon because why? I don't fully believe this news, partly because there's no numbering in the pic. Not interested in this thing.

    I totally get what Paulbot is saying, this should be a MP-20M or something.

    On the other hand, I really like the head sculpt and the paint job is a very interesting throw back to the darker days of tobacco advertising in motor sports and how it followed through to childrens product marketing.

    I'm tempted.

    I like how it looks, but I don't think it really should have had its own number. Star Saber I can understand, but this guy, he should have been MP-20E or MP-20M.

    I agree with the numbering being wrong. I Don't know why this is MP23 when its just a variation of MP20 and a nothing character. Glad I am not collecting all the MP's.

    As a side note, if anyone wants Marlboro waterslide or vinyl decals for this you can get them for 1:18 scale model cars on ebay (about $10-$15 a set). They are made for all the HDT cars that were sponsored by Marlboro during the 1970's and 1980's. They are good quality as I have got some for the Brock cars in my collection.
