TakaraTOMY have made bold MP choices before; some arguably too bold, as those toys weren't very commercially successful.
e.g. MP Road Rage (as a mass store release), MP Star Sabre etc.
Even the MP Trainbots are a risk being based on 1987 Middle-G1 characters, not to mention the long term investment from collectors in collecting the whole set over an extended period (which HasTak have previously done with Studio Series ROTF Devastator).
At the end of the day, it's up to us fans. We all vote with our wallets.![]()
