    I don't believe it. People may have said the same thing before Grimlock was officially announced, but this is different.

    Yeah, the quality of that text is difficult to read, but I was able to make out some of the information.

    The plan is to make a 1:24 scale MP Devastator, but not all at once. The first one will be Masterpiece Hook (MP09). It will sell for 9000JPY some time next year. Furthermore, the MP Constructicons will be designed by Kawamori Shouji.

    Note: Chances that this is fake has massively increased

    I just did a search on Google Japan and also browsed through a Japanese TF board -- couldn't find any mention of MP Devastator (you'd think that this would be hot gossip if most fans in Japan knew about it)... so yeah... I'd say that authenticity is somewhat dubious until I see further evidence.

    If MP-09 is Devastator, I hope it is totally out of scale with the other MP's and fits nicely in scale with the Universe/Classics line

    Although now I am convinced that it will not happen but if there ever is to be one, I am sure that the gestalt would be at most, around the same height as MP-01 or MP-05

    Raider: According to that article MP09 is going to be Hook. It says that Kawamori Shouji will be designing 1:24 scale Masterpiece Constructicons at 9000JPY a pop. So even if what that article says is true, you're going to need to buy six MP Constructicons to complete a MP Devastator.

    I'd say it is a hoax, the combined size would be huge...

    I just asked on the TFW2005 boards in the Toy Discussion section and they reckon it was a reported hoax: Forum Link
