It's kinda hard to picture a cheetahs as a panther though. I think it looks very nice, but it's a bit skinny if we're to believe it's a panther.

I shouldn't want it but I kinda do. Not enough to go through the hoops of ordering it though.

I hope they don't use this mold without mods for Tigertron. That would be bad.

Meh. If it was closer to BW Ravage i'd be more up to it, even if not the Transmetal body.

If the price stays around the MP-34 price I may pick it up.

It's cool they're doing this, though I won't be getting it. Please do Tigatron next. It would take a remold, but they can do it I'm sure. Come on Tigatron!

Agreed. I really liked the original Shadow Panther, but he had the advantage of coming out of that generic, bulky first Cheetor mold. The MP is a much better cheetah, and unfortunately therefore a lousy black panther.

Re: Transformers Masterpiece MP-34S Shadow Panther Annouced

Well, preordered. I told myself I'd buy any new character redecos in this line. Shadow Panther looks pretty great.

A panther is really just a term for any big cat with melanism so I can buy this being a Cheetah version of the term. And while I know there are no recorded examples of a melanistic cheetah, I know it's theoretically possible for it to happen, same with Lions and Tigers.
