Otherwise, RR seems OK, but the addition of a clip-on mask would be a practical addition. If only MP Red Bumblebee came with one too.

A clip on mask maybe good for nostalgia but I'd rather see the opposite gender's face in full, you get to appreciate the beauty of her entire visage.

Who goes loco once in vehicle mode. My kind of gal!
We now more than ever need a Skids/Crosscut MP to complement her.

Bad, offensive joke warning
Road Rage will have her time of the month and that is when she will arrive, as is her (FedEX's) perogative. Then we shall see her in full red glory.
I feel dirty now
On a more serious note - really not feeling the red. It looks too pink in tone and not cherry enough for me. Hopefully better shots will clear that up, as I'm gonna be getting her with Christmas money

No worries as PC image screen shots are always waaaaaaaaaaaaay off the real thing.
And nice joke too

These are of the finished product. Now that people have seen the reviews on Tracks or have bought him, have your minds been changed on getting this retool/redeco? Would that even matter? Let us know in the discussion.

Road Rage keeps her best paintjobs for Tracks.
In all seriousness, I am rather disappointed at the lack of shiny. That said it isn't enough to put me off the figure. Hopefully she'll still be easily available by the time I have more money and space.

Only lacking the blue lipgloss on the MP version. That would be gothic stunning!

Blue lips would have been amazing, and fitting this is a masterpiece figure after all. That would've been a great paint application.

MP-26 Road Rage is a redeco and retool of the previously released Masterpiece 25 Tracks and this video review gives us a good comparison with some of the differences as well. Check out the video we've embedded below and remember keep your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest in news and updates!
That's 2 in one for OPSG.

Wish this also had a stand, but not the end of the world. Inner bubble was double taped, outer box just had one, wonder what caused that if they're all like that. Wish it came with a stand. Either I'm doing something wrong with the gun or she can't hold it well, probably the former. Not crazy about the head, the forward/back tilt on the neck has nowhere to lock in. Mirrors are a bit easier to get in as opposed to Tracks, likely due to the lack of a metallic painted overcoat.
Nice to look at, looks great when posed, but somehow I'm having a tough time getting her to stay together when moving things around. Painted details are super crisp, A+ job on that. Even Twincast's paint is superb for what it is.

Make sure the flat tab behind the gun handle goes into the slot on the top of the hand (same slot where the mushroom peg is). She holds it solidly.

Oh good I thought it was just mine. Kinda weird that Track's head clicks forward but hers doesn't.

Just like scotty, I can't seem to keep her grip on her black beam gun. (Tried following the instructions but the grip is still wobbly.)
Finally got it with the tab thingie. Thanks LC for the tip!
