Toy Review - Masterpiece Convoy Ver 3.0

[GoktimusPrime]

I know a guy who was carefully transforming his MP-44 and the ratcheting in one of the knees broke on him. He says that it doesn't affect the functionality of the toy, but it seems that the knee joint is now more like a friction joint (similar to MP Hot Rod) than a ratchet joint. Still, given that this is - right now - the single most expensive Transformer toy ever, I think it's rather disappointing for it to happen. This guy's MP-44 also has a faulty hip joint.

Many of us were critical about Studio Series Shatter and Dropkick (Car Type), and rightfully so. As $35 Deluxes they really should be better. As a $675 toy I would expect this new MP Convoy to have better production quality than what I'm hearing.

P.S.: I recently had a chance to muck around with the sound gimmick. On the figure I messed with there were ONLY voices from Genda Tessho, no voices from Peter Cullen. I wonder if the video that people saw where the toy had Cullen's voice might've been the Hasbro version.

Thanks for clearing that up, I couldn't work it out on mine. Now I love this figure even more.
