First Look At Takara Tomy Masterpiece Skyfire Prototype



Attention G1 Masterpiece collectors! We can share for you our first image of the highly anticipated*Takara Tomy Masterpiece Skyfire prototype. An image from the upcoming Transformers Generations Book 2021 reveals the gray prototype of Masterpiece Skyfire in robot mode which is based on this G1 cartoon design. The prototype is shown next to Masterpiece MP-10 Optimus Prime for those wondering about scale. It’s good to notice that this is a very early prototype made just to test the mold. More details and changes will be done in the future. Click on the bar to see the mirrored images on this » Continue Reading.

The post First Look At Takara Tomy Masterpiece Skyfire Prototype appeared first on Transformer World 2005 - TFW2005.COM.

Interesting that they used MP-10 instead of MP-44...
Time to look for a part time job.

I can only imagine the insane price this will sell for. Thankfully I got the fans toys version when it first came out at a reasonable price.

Yeah the price on this is going to sting.

What if it costs as much as Haslab Unicron?

I know they say this is an early prototype, so I will wait and see, but not feeling it right now. I'm good with my Siege version for now.

Re: First Look At Takara Tomy Masterpiece Skyfire Prototype

So, I'll reserve judgement till I see a proper comparison of this Jetfire with the Siege Jetfire. But this does not look good at all. The backpack and wings aren't right. The body looks bloated in places it shouldn't be, and too thin in other places. I don't see how this is an improvement, except for being slightly taller and has ankle tilts.

Seriously Takara, just make an MP Mirage already.

I'll be sticking with my fanstoys skyfire/jetfire. You just know that the weaker takara offering will cost well over $700 Canadian based on that ridiculously priced mp prime. I'm done with official mp, bring on the ko mp Sky fire, haha.

Proportions look worse than the Siege version. I think I'll just wait for Bandai to make another high-quality Jetfire toy. They (or their licensees, at least) seem to do a better job of it.

Re: First Look At Takara Tomy Masterpiece Skyfire Prototype

What's over-under on this costing more or less than $500?
