None of the human figures that have come with masterpieces have. They're pretty naff really. The 3P ones are where the face action is.

Hey, people without faces are people, too! Nightmarish, freakish people. But people, nonetheless. |

Leaves me with a maddeningly incomplete collection.... Got all the bloody Decepticons! It's the Autobots that are rather poorly staffed. |

The only one I technically own is the raincoat wearing pilot figure for Starscream. Assuming that he is still in the box, I didn't bother to check when I was re-crating Starscream on Saturday. If one came with Hasbrowarp he has long been declared MIA. The pack in figures have always been where the budget shows on the Masterpiece stuff really. Karl |

Raincoat! That's an official scientist's white coat on Dr Arkeville right there!

Raincoat! That's an official scientist's white coat on Dr Arkeville right there! Yeah. But when I bought it I had no idea who it was supposed to be (the level of retention I have for the Sunbow show is fairly low at the best of times due to a limited interest in it), so it just looked to me like they had included some random bloke in a mac instead of a proper pilot figure. A number of people have pointed out who it is in the years since, but I still tend to think of it as the inexplicable raincoat bloke. Karl |

Invoice received from Kapow. £79, already paid a £1 deposit, so £80 total. Expensive, but with no risk of CUTA etc. compared to the Amazon.jp price I'll take it!

Far as I can see the only disappointing thing is that he can't swap a fist for a missile. Boo!

In hand today. Yellow paint and chrome... Recipe for disaster!
Also, comes with the rear lights mistransformed.
Other than that, if you like previous MP Autobot cars, you'll be happy, but the transformation is a little fiddlier than other MP figures of late (Cheetor excluded).

Well now, I've had a fiddle.. ahem.. and can say this guy is great! Fiddly but intuitive transformation, some very clever mechanics. Looks great in both modes. Well worth some monies!

I really like this one. Although my MP Sideswipe is the G2 version? (I really loved the G2 storyline). But I think they would go together well nonetheless. Sunstreaker remains underused. That said I have the CW version which is technically ok but no where as cool as this guy  Maybe one day...though he seems to be selling out fast... |

This has reappeared on the radar, but unlike Shockwave and Megatron it's a straight reissue, not a toy accurate version with Cordon's head. Next May.

I'm not fussed about Sunstreaker but I am drawn to No Face Chip Chase.
