They did Prime, Megs, Grimlock and the Seekers. Who could be the fifth MP mold? Bumblebee? Rodimus? Or even Soundwave?

Still, if I see this I might actually buy it.

It's nice to see that it's retail price is deflated from Grimlock's. Seems maybe it wasn't a permanent markup.

Huh...I wonder why? Surely it couldn't have been to difficult to sculpt and attach a new Decepticon logo?

Weird.

Masterpiece Convoy Black Version

I think that its a great idea but not unlike ones we've seen before. I really like this mold though and i personally think it will be a great alternative to the traditional G1 colors

I agree with this sentiment. If the Autobot logo were replaced with the Decepticon logo, I would attempt to get this.

Nice that Black Convoy can talk to Regular Convoy on his right arm screen. ;)

This is odd. Apparently this is an Asian market version that is lacking the e-Hobby comic, but comes with a plate.

The e-Hobby version won't be released until next year.

Huh.

Since when are slightly changed versions of e-Hobby exclusives released elsewhere?

I kinda hope not, just because they would probably not be allowed to make him a VW Bug.

Back on topic: I quite like the choices of characters on his communicators, but am put off by the fact he has an Autobot insignia and red eyes.
