Re: The Masterpiece Appreciation and Speculation Thread

I'm going to post this as speculation... Maybe it belongs in another thread, but I'm going to roll with it here.

I just noticed that Transformers seemed to have officially renamed Goldbug to Goldfire. There's an unlockable skin for Bumblebee in the new Devastation game that's clearly Goldbug but it is termed Goldfire instead.

So I guess as we keep an eye out for MP releases, we might want to watch for mention of something called Goldfire.

Sorry if this isn't new info- was definitely news to me.

Re: The Masterpiece Appreciation and Speculation Thread

Is there any mention of Shockwave in the game? MP-29 is listed as "Laserwave" on Anime Export.

Re: The Masterpiece Appreciation and Speculation Thread

Shockwave is going to be in Transformers: Devastation as Shockwave. Laserwave is his Japanese G1 cartoon name. It's like Convoy/Optimus Prime or Lambor/Sideswipe. As for Goldfire, the only case of this name being used (as far as I know) was a Generations Deluxe from 2013. I'm not sure if they lost the rights or what but they also called the Legends Goldbug-ish figure from 2011 Gold Bumblebee. However, Japan has used Goldbug as his name and the MP series use the Japanese names, so a Masterpiece Goldbug will likely be MP-?? Goldbug.

Interesting- thanks for the additional context.

It is hard to see how they could improve upon Grenadier. It is really fantastic.
