MP39 is... Sunstreaker!

[drifand]

very likely Hoist and Trailbreaker, they will not give Jazz like a thump card so quick.

I wonder who'll be the next G1 masterpiece? My money is on either Hound or Mirage

I'm hoping hoist and Trailbreaker. Value for money mould for takara and will save me buying ft version of trailbreaker and waiting for their hoist

[Initial_G]

please please please next MP be Skids

I agree, but i'm curious whether Takara will use a licensed Honda or the Sunbow altmode. I am hoping for licensed altmode with optional clip-on bonnet for those wanting animation accuracy.

I'd say that they would go for this option as it's what they've done with all previous MP Cars. (except Hot Rod for obvious reasons )

From the translated interview:

Beast Wars & G1 are being released alternately since both parties are in different purchasing demographics seperated by age and so on. The release pattern has been thanks to you. We have managed to capture the age that was playing at the time of the show being broadcast and would like to keep the fever of waiting away by releasing more Beast Wars.
I want to distinguish between the 4x4 designs of Hoist and Trailbreaker in the meantime for the G1 fans, which will be troublesome.
I think Megatron and now Sunstreaker really suprised the fans & designers even!
I hope that Hoist can be realised with a few of these suprises. Alot of the masterpiece cars have come together.
We arranged the successive Masterpieces side by side the other day at a festival and they were very popular.

Judging by what's said, I'd be inclined to guess the release schedule is as follows:

MP-39 Sunstreaker
MP-40 Dinobot
MP-41 Hoist
MP-42 Tigatron (should be relatively easy to do using Cheetor as a base mould)
MP-43 Trailbreaker

December release
$145, give or take a few bucks, preorder discounts etc

Ouch, that Sunstreaker price! My unofficial one was waaay cheaper.

Hotrod feels like the odd MP out these days.

I'm surprised they haven't tried making more of Hotrods movie pals. Seems like MP Kup, and Blur would be license free and relatively popular.
