MP39 is... Sunstreaker!

I don't think so, that was just an early prototype without ye olde Chrome

Yeah, I’d say so based on the items in the tray in the photo above.

Just noticed now it does not have the Lamborghini logo on the bonnet

The box has the logo, though. Strange. It's obviously official. Wonder why no bonnet logo. It was mentioned earlier, I think, about Lamborghini wouldn't go for splitting of the logo for transformation...

MP-12+ doesn't have the Lamborghini logo painted on the bonnet either. I guess, for the same reason as MP-12+, Tomy chose not to paint the logo for MP-39 to enhance animation likeness.

argh wtf? noooo
why can't they just do "+" version later on and remove the logo then


How will anyone know it's a Honda Lamborghini now??

I would probably only display Sunstreaker with his superchargers so the lack of black details in alt mode doesn't concern me. He is a customised Countach and with the badge detail removed, some colour coding and funky window tint to match those big aftermarket blowers. I've been impressed with some of the detailing on him so far actually. Although if he didn't have black tyres I would skip him.

The wrist layout is a bit of a dissappointment. It would have been great had they been able to find a way to make the wrists completely retractible to allow for wrist rockets.

That's a shame. I preferred the body-coloured spoiler.

There's a moulded shape on the bonnet that's the right shape for the logo, though. Perhaps there was difficulty in having a sufficiently detailed tampograph at that size stick to that shape. I don't know.

That was just a rumour, but even if that was the case and Lamborghini didn't want their logo split, the bonnet doesn't split down the middle anyway, so the logo wouldn't be bisected.
