    I'd love it if you could set your watch by Takara, but you can't I'm still waiting for Hound, Mirage and Sunstreaker who all had two 3rd party options released to date, or perhaps Takara's secret rule is there has to be 3 3rd party alternatives announced before they will make an official one, in which case we need at least one probably 2 new 3rd party Jazz toys to be announced.

    At the moment I think it looks like a grey prototype with a lot of potential, we can't trust the fan art. MP Laserwave looked great as a prootype, then the coloured version seemed lackluster and too purple and plasticy, fortunately he turned out to be pretty cool, so hopes are high, but we shall see.

    I think it looks great as a grey prototype. The cannon is a better size for his arm than the first Takara Version. It does look very good overall, I'm assuming the designer had more than 12 days to spend on this one like he was only given for the original MP Megs.

    I like what's has been shown and hope it turns out to be legit, its a version that tries to provide a good balance between bot and alt, obviously that would turn some people off but for fans of MP it's def exciting to see what happens

    It's legit otherwise TT would have said something. It's has titled TT mp Megatron . If its third party, it would own up by now.

    Still speculation. Until I hear it from the horses mouth, I won't assume it's TT

    Maybe they have prototypes of lots of bots and when the timing is right they pick one and put it into production. They would make business decisions based on many factors and one such decision could be to counter 3rd party releases.

    The 56th All Japan Model & Hobby Show 2016 commences today and runs through the weekend. Fingers crossed Megatron 2.0 gets announced and/or some other new Masterpiece goodness.
