Takara Masterpiece

Transformers Takara MP-27 Masterpiece Ironhide

Transformers Takara MP-27 Masterpiece Ironhide. He’s red and transforms into a licensed Nissan van but unlike bumblebee does not have any makers badge on the actual figure. Like the original toy he has a sled, unlike the original this is not part of the transformation and has a head. The sled can be used to store the many weapons and bits you get with this bot.

The Sled with holds all the accessories

Transformers Takara MP-20 Masterpiece Wheeljack

Transformers Takara MP-20 Masterpiece Wheeljack. Transforms into a licensed Lancia Stratos car in rally livery. This one is repro labelled up. I had some problems with the red paint chipping quite badly on the legs and a big chunk of black paint on the hands, I had to fix it with Sharpie pens.

Transformers Takara Tomy MP-22 Masterpiece Ultra Magnus

Transformers Takara Tomy MP-22 Masterpiece Ultra Magnus. This is repro labelled up. The cab is detachable and copies details from MP-10 Optimus Prime’s alt mode.

One Draw back of this figure is there is no wist rotation. Maybe he “can’t deal with that now” but he’s not the worst autobot leader (See Armada’s Hot Shots Launch speech)

He does have a Matrix compartment but he is not supplied with one and so it must be taken from MP-1

MP-10’s Matrix; nope he was not worthy (he really needed a meaningful introduction before the movie)
