Our friends over at
Action-HQ have posted a listing on their website that the the Hasbro version of the much anticipated Masterpiece Convoy will be made up mostly of plastics rather than die-cast metal. If this turns out to be true, Optimus Prime joins the Alternators in what fans have dubbed the "Transformers that should have been awesome but Hasbro ****ed ´em up" category of high-end figures. Keep in mind that this has yet to be 100% confirmed.

The release of what may be the most anticipated Transformers figure of all time is nearly upon us. Both Hasbro and Takara plan to release their figures (Hasbro´s 20 Anniversary Optimus Prime and Takara´s Masterpiece Convoy) within a few weeks of each other. Rumors have been flying about these figures since the first images were shown months ago. Before you make the decision on which version you´re going to buy, consider what we DON´T know for sure:
We DON´T know if Takara´s version will have the shortened smokestacks. The original pieces that were seen (prototypes, test shots, etc) had long stacks. However, subsequent test shots had shortened stacks. Supposedly, some leaked Takara versions also sport the so-called "castrated stacks" as well. Hasbro designer, Aaron Archer, recently said that it was Hasbro´s goal to have both company´s smokestacks appear the same. It´s possible that Hasbro may have requested Takara emasculate their stacks as well.
We DON´T know if the Takara version will have the "battle damage" paint applications. We KNOW Hasbro´s will, but recent leaked test shots (supposedly of Takara´s MP Convoy) also sport battle damage.
We DON´T know either company´s plans for the package design. We know that Hasbro plans to package the figure in a window box in robot mode, but beyond that, it´s remained a mystery.
The bottom line is, despite the efforts of many of us online, there´s surprisingly few hard facts on this figure (even though it´s release is scheduled for next month). None of the rumors surrounding it have been solidly confirmed or denied.
If you´re a fan of Takara´s reissues, your choice has been made easier by the generous offer from Action-HQ.com. Under their deal, both Hasbro´s and Takara´s versions of the figure are within a few dollars of each other. Check out the main page of SEIBERTRON.com for more details on this offer.
