Takara Masterpiece MP-18+ Streak aka Bluestreak Revealed

Posted by [email protected] on
It seems Takara's penchant for toon accuracy is not letting up. Not only will we be getting an MP+ release of Wheeljack release but come late July 2019, you will be able to get your hands on a cartoon accurate deco of Masterpiece Bluestreak titled MP-18+ Streak.

This will be a Takara Tomy Mall exclusive in Japan which means that no other Japanese retailer will be selling it (so no Amazon Japan). It will surely be available at import shops with either a Hasbro Asia release or a full on North American Hasbro release, with Hasbro's English language all black slip covers. It would be the exact same toy inside of course. In Japan, this toy will sell for ¥9,180, which is usually equivalent to around a $90 price point in the west.

Aside from the more toon accurate deco, we also have extra faces and extra effect parts as you can see in the images below. Enjoy!

Product content Streak main body (1), cry face (1), laugh face (1), effect parts (3), instruction manual (1), character card (1)

The effect parts and new faces make this actually appealing to me even though I already have the mold as the all silver version, well played, Takara, well played.

DO WANT! Man, that looks great! Already love the mold and it's nice to see they've done more than just repaint it. Definitely going on my pre-order list. I wonder why Prowl didn't get this kind of treatment? Looking forward to Smokescreen+ now.

I'm surprised it didn't come with the big launchers. This is interesting that the head is remolded for a swappable face gimmick, something tells me we might get ANOTHER Prowl with this new gimmick.

Prowl MP-17++ with swappable jerk face and a table to flip over! :lol:

What?? Takara! :shock:

Why didn't they do this with Sideswipe Plus, too??

I already like the original MP Blustreak. But this is really cool. And probably irrelevant since it's a TT Mall exclusive.

I am impressed by how great this new Bluestreak looks. The deco is so clean. Takara really did a nice job, and it’s presumably fantastic news for anyone who doesn’t already have Bluestreak. If I only had Silverstreak, or blue Bluestreak, Instead of only owning regular Bluestreak, I would love to pick him up. Especially with those effect parts, which is such an exciting addition to MPs.

If Takara started selling just effect parts, I would be 100% in. Different rays, blasts, and bursts. I’d love a missle circus effect for the Seekers missle pods.
