Takara Masterpiece box Translations

[montague78]

Hi everybody,

Im just wondering if anybody knows a link, or any source, of where i can actually read the translation of the japanese text on the MP boxes? In English of course. I'd just love to know wat it all says. Even on the lil profile card they come with.

Thanks in advance

Cheers!

Too bad no responses.... I'd like to know too.

With my still limited knowledge of Katakana, I'm pretty sure the bottom part of MP01 (where it says MP1 - Cybertron Commander) reads just that..

トランスフォーマー = toransufuoma
マスターピース　 = masutapisu
サイバトロン = saibatoron
コンボイ = conboi

I'm guessing the kanji between "saibatoron" and "conboi" translates to commander or something.

Sound it out,

Toransufuoma = Transformer

Masutapisu = Masterpiece

Saibatoron = Cybertron (AKA Autobot in Japan)

Conboi = Convoy (AKA Optimus Prime)

PS: I know no Japanese correct me if I'm wrong

yeah sound it out
sometimes you gotta say it fast

japanese doesn't have a "v" sound, do you get "b"
also no "l" so you get "ru"

Mine is a bit rusty but I thought it is the other way around?
