    Default Masterpiece Skyfire coming?

    There's a rumour making the rounds on the US fansites that an MP Skyfire is happening.

    Whoops, I put this in the wrong thread. Please move mods.

    I feel that my Siege "Skyfire" is good enough, until it's not I guess. Still, more keen on seeing that Raiden especially now knowing it's gonna scale with the CW guys.
    Looking to buy lucky draw Armada Prime and Diaclone Marlboor Wheeljack.

    (created a new topic, as the info is said to be in the latest Figure King magazine in Japan, which should be considered an official source of images and info from TakaraTomy)
    (the alleged translation of Japanese text claims that Skyfire is being started... and when it is officially announced directly by TakaraTomy I will edit the topic title)

    Remember 1 million years ago when Takara said they were working on Trailbreaker/Hoist and everyone assumed we’d see them within a year or two?

    Yeah. We might see Skyfire within the decade.

    As a Jetfire fan I will be buying this if it is real.
    I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures

    Except... They never said that. It was a mistranslation. It was actually the interviewer asking them about Trailbreaker and Hoist.

    I think that Jazz may be back on the table. I was doubtful Porsche would licence a straight toon Jazz but Skids shows that Takara will still produce a traditional styled MP if the car company wants it. I think this is needed for a realistic alt mode MP Jazz. I may be wrong though!

    TFW2005 has a screenshot of an MP Jetfire protoype taken from a page of the Transformers Generations Book 2021. The prototype is next to MP-10. MP-10 is an odd choice, but perhaps Takara made this is prototype years ago before they designed MP-44. I suppose official prototype doesn't mean that we're certain to get a release of the MP figure.

    That doesn’t look great. It’d want to be a VERY early prototype. With many revisions since. And maybe a redesign.
