Takara Tomy Masterpiece MP-11T Thundercracker Pre-Order Listings

Glad I’m getting mine for around $120.

Just FYI: This version of Thundercracker is an F-15, not an F-22. The Bayverse Thundercracker was an F-22, though.

I'm aware of that, I just wanted to use one of the best lines from the IDWverse Thundercracker.

I get that this won't have distribution as wide as some of their other releases, but even considering importers' markups, this is still RIDICULOUSLY overpriced, just for a change in the plastic color.

Hi, I just wanted to precise something to people who may not know. As TF Source's listing says, anyone buying this from importers is NOT buying the exclusive TTMall release of MP 11T. Instead:

This is the Asian market release of this product

- http://tfsource.com/masterpiece/mp-11t-thundercracker/

There is no given amount for this release but it is not the 2000 limited item that was exclusive at Takaratomy mall. So the price isnt due to exclusivity in this case (unlike Takara Defensor, for instance) but solely due to importing.

I just wanted collectors to know the facts and not to be jipped on the notion of what they are buying.

Does no good, sir.

Fellow Seibertronian Robotmel, found some new in hand images (some definitely seem to come right off the assembly line) of the upcoming MP 11T, Takara's Masterpiece Thundercracker. There are comparisons to the Hasbro version where the different shade of blue is very evident. These pictures come to us from ACtoys.net and weibo.com/lovemomo5288.

Looks Great!

Takara MP Thundercracker looks good. It's not nearly as loud, bright, & obnoxious, as he seemed initially, but I really do love my Hasbro TC's darker, metallic shade. The $200.00 price is what makes this easy to pass though. For those who worship cartoon-accuracy, this is the best you're going to get, so enjoy!

AutobotAlvaron wrote:For those who worship cartoon-accuracy, this is the best you're going to get, so enjoy!

I definitely worship at that alter. Though I have the Hasbro release from a few years back, this latest Takara release is the DEFINITIVE version in my eyes, even if still not entirely perfect. Why the black nose cone, for example? I find it interesting that each one of the MP-11 classic Seeker trio has something that makes it not quite "cartoon accurate," but among the three, it's a DIFFERENT set of things for each one. MP-11TC has the black nose cone, as already said. MP-11SW has some embellishments in the form of pin striping on his "pectorals" as well as his wrists and shoulders. MP-11 has those black tabs on the top of the fuselage in alt mode. Weird.

By the way, I've got a question for anyone who's got expert knowledge of the various releases of MP-11 Starscream. What color plastic is the nose cone cast in? The TFwiki page claims that the original Japanese and Asian releases had a blue plastic nose cone painted over in gray to match the rest of fuselage and primary wings. Then, a 2013 Chinese release came along with a nose cone cast in the same or a similar gray plastic to the fuselage, etc. It also featured gray (either painted or cast in gray plastic) tabs to replace the black ones on the top of the jet mode for the original release. My MP-11, however, has the black tabs on the top of the jet AND a gray plastic nose cone. I'm certain it's not painted gray, as you can see light through the plastic from inside to out. So, is something off with the wiki description of these variations? Which release do I likely have?

The best person to answer this would be Powered Convoy/Randy, as he's a major Seeker expert.

I guess no one ever noticed that this bat-winged, pot bellied POS doesn't look much like the animation model. The classics seeker mold is the only masterpiece I see here.

WTF is up with people wanting and/or expecting "baby blue" as if it was in any way accurate to either the show or the original toy.

I agree completely! Takara should try again. This is actually Michael Bay's version of Thundercracker. Robotic, pointy and overly detailed. Takara would have come out a lot better simply upsizing the classics mold, adding articulation and modifying the null Rays to be animation accurate in robot and jet modes.

1984forever wrote:Takara would have come out a lot better simply upsizing the classics mold, adding articulation and modifying the null Rays to be animation accurate in robot and jet modes.

Agreed, but not for yet another Masterpiece Seeker mold, but for a new "Classics"/Generations release at the Voyager scale. Upsizing the 2006 deluxe Seeker mold with added articulation would be a perfect fit in terms of scale with most of the rest of my Classics collection. Starscream et al. should at least be bigger than the Autobot deluxe cars.

While I was gonna agree 100% with your statement, wolfman jake, wouldnt you rather a seeker updae finds a better way to conceal the nosecone than to just leave it in back of the head? The only toysthat have ever concealed the nosecons properly are HFTD Leader Starscream and the Prime Dreadwing mold.

For the coneheads however, upscaling that classics mold with better articulation is perfect!

Also, about this Thundercracker being Michael Bay's seeker, its more the other way around. Before the films came out, the initial MP 03 was released and the objective of that transformer (as dexcribed by the designer) was for it to have a pefect looking jet mold (at the cost of the robot looking less like that character it was aiming to be). So the whole idea was that it would look like a real world jet (just like the alternators were real world cars). So pretty much live action before the live action movies existed, hnce why you see tah they share a similar real world aesthetic. And I think that was ok for MP03, if seen as a stand alone figure. The problem is that the same mold has been used since for all MP seekers (including the coneheads!!) so that real world aesthetic stays all throghout.

You know, I find it off. When the Clubs said they woudl retire the classics deluxe seeker mold, the fandom was ok with it saying it was quite outdated. The MP seeker mold base is as old and it doesnt show any signs of ending. We have more coneheads to come plus all their redecos.

Personally, I don't mind hiding the nose cone behind the head as the 2006 deluxe Classics Seekers do. It's not the most elegant solution, but it works, and doesn't require the use of faux cockpits or anything. I figure with an upscaling of the design to Voyager class, a few more options will become viable in terms of engineering and space to get the nose cone as tucked away as it can be.

As for the MP-11 mold, it's not really fair to say it's as old as the MP-3 mold. Yes, there is some common engineering involved and parts of the plane are identical in tooling, but for the most part, MP-11 is a brand new mold, especially where any of the robot mode parts are concerned. With the revised Masterpiece Seekers being roughly 90% (or more) brand new tooling, I don't think anything held over from the MP-3 design would be produced on those old sprues anyway, rather they would have been recast for the new MP-11 molds.

I was referring more to the real life jet aspects which still preserve the dimensions of the jet along with how the wings look in both modes. They still keep all the real jet gimmicks too like the antenna in the nosecone and the air brake along the back. The robot mode has been redone though, especially the legs area, but it does still exhibit elements of a real life jet which was the goal of the original. And that is all I was responding too.

Also, and this is not related to any previous comment (just for conversation purposes), while the tooling is new, the transformation for anything above the waist is nearly identical to MP 03. It's like Dark Cumplezone, who people dont realize is almost 100% new tooling since its all just aesthetic. He still transforms the exact same way so people who disliked of the mold wont change their minds with 100% new tooling.

HAHAHA! Aside from the fact that it doesnt turn into a jet, there are reasons that mold doesnt come up when I think of toys done well : http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/top-5-worst-cases-of-visible-head-syndrome-among-transformers-toys-t104938.php

I guess I will take this opportunity now to say that this toy will reappear on a list in 2016. Either the most overrated or underrated Transformers. I will let the suspense build as to which of the two that toy appears on.

It's a better Seeker mold that the Classics Deluxe one, though.

It conceals it very nicely inside the body, but upscaling it to Voyager class would basically be the Cyber Battalion Starscream, just with better articulation.



I'm fine with that.

As far as the MP-11 mold goes my only two complaints are the feet (more than enough room to put proper feet inside the leg) and the cockpit in bot mode sticking up too high placing the head on a pedestal above the shoulders. Everything else about the mold feels as show accurate as any of the other MPs. I definitely don't see any movie qualities about it.

Ok, so I tried it out and....no, I really do not find it better than the deluxe seeker mold, nor am I fond if it aside from the smart way to hide the nosecone and the efficient way the wings are flipped in robot mode (sure beats the leader seeker design in that respect).

What I dislike about this mold are 2 things:

1. The very limited articulation: sure, its a legends class toy, but BW Terrorsaur was a similar class and far more articulated. If I am to judge this against the deluxe seeker (or any seeker), of course I will look at articulation and it fails in that department. mostly for the fact that he can only pose looking straight ahead and standing straight. There isnt that cool hip or knee pivot I like so you cant have one foot straight forward while the other is perpendicular, giving a nice strong action stance. And his face (which I find too small) cant articulate either. With no exageration, I find the beast wars basics far better than this mold (with the exception of Optimus Minor, but thats for different reasons).

2. this is probably the worst undercarriage I have ever seen on a jet transformer. Its not even stored away tightly, its just his arms, his legs and his face. I bought autobot gears and eclipse at the same time and there wasnt much difference between The legends seeker undercarriage and eclipse. The deluxe deffinitely wins in that regard, and thus also wins in transformation (since it hides away the robot parts better).

So who'd you get? Thundercracker or Skywarp?

Acid Storm.

For what they are the Legends Seekers are nice figures. I think you're expecting a little too much from them, Will. Many (most?) of the Legends don't have neck or ankle articulation. The ones that do only have it because of their transformations. Scouts/Basics are larger than Legends so it makes more sense for them to have more articulation, but even then they only have the ankles if it is part of their transformation. Terrorsaur may have better articulation, but it takes more steps to transform a Legends Seeker.

But this was mainly a discussion about how to do the nosecones better and the Legends figures do that. Obviously if they were to make a proper Voyager out of the Legends Seekers (not the Cyber Battalion mold, but proper Voyager) they'd be able to hide the arms better and give him head and ankle articulation.

I agree with you 100% Energe!

But please hear me out so I dont sound too foolish. While the discussion was about the nosecone (which this does very well), it was brought up that the Legends mold was the best seeker mold and that peaked my interest (especially since I have an upcoming best seeker molds list (also inspired by Touya)). Not only that but it was then debated which one should be best to upscale into a voyager. So while the legends has limitations all legends have, this new talk did start comparing this mold over molds of a bigger scale and that is how I judged it. The way it is, I do not see this mold working as a straight up upscale and I dont think it is all that great itself. Especially when you compare it to Blackjack or Cosmos which I feel are much more impressive Legends toys (or Legion fixit which gives me everything I would want from the little guy). As a Legends seeker mold, it does the job well (as you write eloquently so) but it clearly exhibits the limitations of that size class and budget.

Thanks! He was found locally. Being the same price (a bit less actually) as the cw legends in stores, I figured this was better value since it comes with a targetmaster. Also got gears (I got into the game too late for swerve at retail). He has an amazing targetmaster by the way, but that is for another thread I guess.

Ah I see. But still, after having experienced both, I feel this mold is not better. It is only better in the way it conceals the nosecone.

And the arms and legs have way better articulation ranges with their uses of universal ball joints in the knees and elbows over rigid pin joints.

You are correct. I misremembered the knees. I admit it has been a while since I fiddled with either my Starscream or Thundercracker.

Perhaps my mental image of figure's knees was misconstrued with those of the similarly-sized Animated Activators Seeker mold, which did have ball jointed knees (and shoulders, elbows, hips, even the neck), and which itself was much better than its larger counterpart size class of that line (the Animated Voyager Seeker mold).

Forgive me, I've been re-watching Animated these passed few evenings, and reorganized my Animated shelf earlier this year, so I must still have Animated on the brain.

Its a good thing to have on the brain so I see no fault there. And it does reassure me since we usually see eye to eye and I agree with you. The legends class seeker you were imagining sounds amazing. Sadly, its not as great in reality.

Also, Hellscream, I do agree that the deluxe is blocky but I find that it works in it's advantage. It makes it look more like the animated character brought to toy form, even more so than the MP (especially due to the quick transformation, wings, feet and especially tapered nosecone chest)

I was only talkng about the Legends Seekers whicht turned out to not be as great as I was expecting, basing off what i had read.

As for the activators, I am not a big fan of the altmode:
