Masterpiece is collectors grade though. I never understood why the cutting corners in quality as I would pay top dollar for a real masterpiece like mp-1.

Look at wheeljack at compare to sunstreaker, what a difference. The white plastic is Just crap looking. Just hold your Binaltech and compare with the early masterpiece cars. They can't beat it.

Where Takara stands now, I am mostly not buying their toys anymore. Not to mention hasbro is worse.

I missed Takara golden age where their toys were solid.
