    Beast Wars technically is part of the same continuity as the G1 universe, it is just a future plot that's based in the past.

    same thing can be said for Victory's star Sabre which has been made mp24. So why wouldnt BW Convoy be part of the same numbering?

    Delta Magnus is probably a new character all together and not a straight repaint of Magnus as they did with Road Rage having her own number.

    If they give Optimus Primal something along the lines of MPBW-1 then I think it will be safe to assume they want to do more BW Masterpieces, but if he is MP-32 or something like that then it's anyone's guess as to if it is a one off or not.

    As someone that has been meaning to get a TM2 Megatron for years I'd like a MP TM2 Megs.
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    I think Primal will be in the standard MP-3? line. I also think a Megatron will happen but after that, it all depends on sale numbers.

    The MPM-0? (and APS) molds were great repaints but not designed to the same specs as masterpiece figures. So even though they were bloody good they still contained big ass sound gimmicks that an MP would usually exclude for a better design.

    ^This is an excellent point. Transformers Victory is also set in the future, and technically so are Ultra Magnus and Hot Rod (even if that future happened 11 years ago )

    Don't give a damn about number .
    Ramjet doesn't even look like a mp-11 so anything goes.

    Kinda shame that I know some have waited for G1 toy colour and they decided this was more a priority

    Yes, i hope Hasbro makes a toy coloured Ultra Magnus. Not sure if i would get another one but i think it would sell very well for them.

    Hasbro can't even bring sideswipe, you wait for your next life if you ask me.

    It looks to me like they're making the Diaclone homage a character in its own right, like Exhaust.

    Yes a licenced supercar and a fictional car trailer are totally the same to get approval for. And don't mind the masterpieces released after MP-12 that hasbro has managed to release. With the Ultra Magnus mold getting used this year i think a Hasbro release will come this year as well so long as the US line continues.

    Mp-10 was used and no tru release. Mp-11 looked identical to TT so nothing really to shout. I think we are hoping too much and assuming there is a g1 toy format.

    Have you guys ever stop to think that they got the colours wrong when doing the g1 toys? Guess not.
