The colors look really good on this figure. I had to get two of them! (One displayed in Bot mode, one in ALT mode).

I know its not a KO as it came from Kapow Toys.

Remember Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-14 Red Alert? Not only did the figure get a second run, sharing the Lamborghini licensed mold with MP-12 and its redecos, it also looks like it will be re-released yet again this December 2015 under the incarnation of MP-14C Clampdown!
Fellow Seibertronians Cyberpath and Autobot Genocide shared the news from takaratomymall.com, and the page includes release info, including the 7992 Yen price (approx $66 USD) and plenty of images, showing off the new Diaclone-tweaked deco and Autobot symbol, piledrivers and guns - check them out mirrored below (with apologies for the size of some of them)!

This would make a fantastic complement to the 3rd party Sunstreaker - should it get a Police car deco I'd love to have both ; I wish they'd release that Sunstreaker cop car sometime and give it a retrospective Transformers Identity - but then we still don't have a Sunstreaker G1 reissue yet either.
I'm pleased to see an MP Clamp Down as I like the alt mode look more than I do Red Alert's colours.

Clamp Down is a preexisting character, guys. He and his brother Deep Cover were e-HOBBY exclusives and members of the Interplanetary Personnel Exchange Program. The two have been Autobots since 2003, which was over a decade ago.
It wouldn't make sense to suddenly change them into Decepticons.

Lamborghini Countach, and it won't be the last, trust me. Since Clamp Down is based on an e-Hobby release, as mentioned before, an MP-12D Deep Cover is lurking just around the corner
By the by, those e-Hobby-based extra characters must be selling quite well for TakaraTomy to keep churning them out.

Just to clarify, I know that Clampdown is a Lamborghini Countach. I meant that I already have 5 of the Nissan Fairlady mold (Prowl etc) so I might as well get multiples of this one too. Thought I would make it clear that I am not an idiot........

I was hoping they would do this! Didn't think it would be so soon.
The only Lambor I had as a kid was this Diaclone that I picked up at a comic shop in the 80's. He wasn't even called Clampdown yet.
Look close and you can see how well "loved" he is.
Needless to say this is a must have for me!

Nope. If he came out earlier you might be able to theorize that, but I'm sure none of the redeco guys (Red BB, Thundercracker, Clampdown) had anything to do with their delay.
I managed to order mine from TakaraTomy Mall last night with no issues. He sold out in roughly 9 to 10 hours from their site. Which is a little slower than Bluestreak but they had a limit of 3 per order rather than 10 with Bluestreak.

It was a real release. I believe for the 2013 Tokyo Toy Show.
It has been knocked off too I believe, but I bet that one is the real McCoy.
Edit: OR would be real if it were in stock.

It has been knocked off too I believe, but I bet that one is the real McCoy.
Edit: OR would be real if it were in stock.

The KO Tigertrack is easy to identify by the face: it uses the standard Sideswipe face (in fact, it's just Sideswipe painted yellow!), while the real thing uses Alert's. It's those little changes that makes me appreciate TakaraTomy's cheekiness.
