Am no fan of the character (I only own the classics figure cos a friend got it for me for my birthday some years ago and i am sentimental) or the 'masterpiece' line but that looks pretty decent for Tracks fans. Of course it's hard to tell what amount of quality issues it'll have from just looking at the photos.

Wow! He is tall.
That means Road Rage is gonna be taller than all the boys. :shock:

September can't come fast enough.

No kidding. He's supposed to be one of the squatter ones, being no taller than the likes of Prowl and Red Alert (maybe even a smidge shorter than those two).

All this is doing is making me consider, once again, the Road Rage version. Must. Resist.

Looks like his back piece is adjustable no?

The hood popping is a nice reference to Make Tracks.

And the shot of the three together reminds me of this frame:

Case in point. His head stands above those of Sideswipe and Prowl when all three should be of equal height.

Why do I get the feeling that Tracks would be properly squatter had Hasui-san designed him instead of Kobayashi-san. #-o

Look where his right foot is in relation to Sideswipe's feet.
I suggest holding the nerd rage until a photo pops up with all three of them in an even, straight line.

His foot might be forward, but they appear to be standing shoulder to shoulder and Tracks are definitely higher than Sideswipe's.

Also didn't notice before but Raul is pretty tiny! Corvettes aren't very tall cars and he can't even see over the top. I'm not sure he could see over the steering wheel either if he was driving.

I assume Tracks still doesn't come with the front gun that comes with Road Rage.

Well I'm not mad at all. Tracks could come packed with a sack of skunk poop, and I'd still be all over him. :lol:

You're right. It could be a case of forced perspective though.

All these pics have done is make me want this figure even more.

It's not forced perspective-he is taller, plain and simple. And I'm pretty sure non of us were mad, just stating a fact and then discussing it. :shock:

Dunno if I'd take the skunk poop though, Cobotron :-?

I heard Donald Trump was going to buy up all the MP-25s at triple the retail value to keep the Raul figures from getting into the US. :lol:

That's RACIST! Raoul is as American as you can get (And the Old Gipper gave them blanket amnesty back in 1984-1985. As for Tracks though, was he and the other Autobots registered with the folks at Area 51?

Now the TFs, Autobots or Decepticons are the REAL illegal Aliens (so is Superman, J'onn J'onzz etc etc)!

Back on topic please.

More pix here.

Looks like the car's black beam gun is included in this release, too.

Fellow Seibertronian Cyberpath has notified the news staff of a new set of images of the upcoming Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-25 Tracks, via the Facebook page Transformers the Religion and usual suspect Kelvin Chan. You can find most of them mirrored below, including looks at the accessories that come with the toy (Raul, Blaster boombox, flight stand, guns), vehicle modes and robot mode - check them out!

I love the fact that the good opens up!! Actually I really like the alt mode on this guy.

The only problem I have with this figure is he doesn't come with the alien mask he wore when Hoist became a movie star

That'll come with the MP Ironhide repaint seeing as he has all of the accessories.

Tracks looks amazing! He's a smidge taller than the others, but fit right in with them.

Proper stock photo of the final product VS the initial magazine image of the prototype:
