Review: Masterpiece MP-20 Wheeljack

[Trent]

Generations Jackie in car mode holds up better than I thought it would against the MP version. In bot mode however MP kills it

@5FDP simple answer Yes

I absolutely love my MP Wheeljack, it's the first of the "voyager" MPs I've purchased, and while I have no intention on getting any of the others, I adore his presence in my collection.

I'm really dissapointed that Wheeljack's white is largely bare white plastic. He looks so unfinished in alt mode next to his MP Car mates.

That said he's still a fantastically engineered toy that is distinct enough from the Generations deluxe to make worthwhile owning.

I agree. He needs some detailing or paint apps on the shoulders and legs. I was surprised that the back of the legs are actually more detailed than the front.

yeah... his hip got more detail on the back! ...that why i did a quick swap around after unscrewing that section ....looks heaps better now

On my shelf (ie not on close inspection), i really can't see much difference between the white cars.
I was a bit pissed off today as mine had a green tampo smudge near one back wheel... but a cotton wool bud and some eucalyptus oil cleaned it up nicely!
I probably wouldn't have been able to do that if he'd have been painted!

He does have a tricky tampo print - the striped design and high contrast makes errors so obvious - but thankfully they've done a pretty good job with it overall.

My first car mp with minor paint imperfections.
Got a small ding near his hands exposing some black like you reverse your car and scratched your bumper. Luckily some white paint covers it and make it look good again.

I am fearing the qc of the mp line have not been great at times, the datsuns still have my vote as the best painted as they do not go lazy on the white for wheeljack here.

Awesome figure if you pre ordered early and bought it at under $70 delivered.

A wonderful figure! Mine was nearly on a boat back to Japan but I managed to stop that *phew!* A great transformation and likeness are packed in this little super car.

..as mine had a green tampo smudge near one back wheel... but a cotton wool bud and some eucalyptus oil cleaned it up nicely!

Eucalyptus oil eh? Mine was not fully masked and the large green 'A' (that sits in front of the rear wheel) has a very soft edge to it instead of a sharp line. I was thinking of taping the green A and rubbing off the excess ..if i dare attempt it.
