Sponsor BigBadToyStore has confirmed rumours going around this week that the next Transformers Masterpiece figure will indeed be the leader of the Dinobots – Grimlock.
The photo on the site is the teaser image seen months ago and the release is now confirmed as being March 2009 and is expected to be larger than any other Masterpiece figure. This also means a higher price tag, but expect retailers to reduce the price in the coming months.
Time for some more rumours. Sparkplug of SGCollect has posted some information he has received on the release of Masterpiece MP-08 Grimlock and Alternity Megatron.
Masterpiece Grimlock will be released in March 2009 by TakaraTomy with a price tag of 130,000 Yen. This is a lot more expensive than other Masterpieces, so (if true) expect a large item. Alternity Megatron will be available in either blue or silver and will transform into the new Nissan Fairlady Z.
Expect retailers to either confirm or deny these rumours in the coming weeks.
Various retailers have received word from TakaraTomy that they plan on a 2nd production run for Transformers Masterpiece 02 Ultra Magnus, the repaint of MP-01 Optimus Prime. It will be out by Christmas, in November sometime. It will cost about $110 or £55 from retailers like Play-asia.com.
The figure was originally released in April 2006, and became very rare, very quickly, due to the limited production run.
Fan2Fan have updated their site preorder page with some new images of the next Masterpiece figure MP-07 Thundercracker. The face has been changed to give a different facial expression to Starscream.
MP-07 Thundercracker is due for release in November 08 from TakaraTomy and will cost the same as MP-03 Starscream.
TFormers have an image gallery of Masterpiece Megatron showing him in full colour and well as the scale of the item.
Visual Media Technology, a Hong Kong message board, has another magazine scan of Masterpiece Megatron. It shows him in robot mode and has a closer look at his head.
More of the Takara Masterpiece 04 has been revealed, thanks to Toysonline.hk scanning a recent magazine. The trailer unfolds and becomes a repair-bay or a place to store your Binaltech/Alternators.
