That does look nice. I wish they'd gone for a richer, darker, glossy red though.

Ooh. Between this and the two non-crap unofficial routes I'm not sure which I like best. If this had the colourscheme and detailing of the Maketoys version it'd be an easy victory for the MP, but he does look...bland, in a way.

Yeah I am too, besides these initial prices usually go down in like a week anyway. But even if they don't $140 isn't that much for ladder magic

I'll wait for the HLJ pre order, as always.

Yeah, just like when shockwave came out, they wanted it to appear competitive with the 3p shockwaves that people weren't going to buy from then on, I'd imagine they want something similar for the 3p out-fer-yes' >:oP

I like your passion guys! While he looks awesome, I will wait to see my options. Less popular characters can sometimes be gotten for cheaper through difference sources, as was the case for Tracks and G2 Bumblebee (and Red body bumblebee which I just got).

I am very curious to see if that will still be a cheaper option once we add shipping and the current exchange. The rate could go down of course by then.

Fellow Seibertronians, with pre-orders for him going up, we now have some additional images of the upcoming Takara Tomy Masterpiece Inferno figure, showing off his hose and water spray accessory, along with most of his other accessories, including his multiple faces and bumpers. Check them out, and let us know what you think of him in the comments below.

If only they could change the chest a bit, the only thing I see standing out like a sore thumb
on MP's in robot mode is the chest. Ironhide and Inferno's chest just look like the front of vehicles and don't seem show accurate at all.

:MAXIMAL:

How do you mean? MP Inferno comes with three different chests for him to use.

Yeah, look at the accessory pic. And then look at the chest he's wearing in the other pics.

Looks pretty good but i'm already in for Ocular Max Backdraft. It has far more detail and articulation but I'll definitely buy this mold when its repainted for Grapple.

I'm impressed that the ladder completely disappears into his chest eliminating a backpack.

He looks perfect. I like how he can move his head with the wing-base, and inside of it.

Posted by Blozor on July 8th, 2016 @ 5:31pm CDT

I'd still like to see some idea of scale, especially in fire truck mode. Is he going to be the size of a moderate van like Ocular Max? Will he fit inside Optimus Prime's trailer? Or will he be larger, like an actual fire truck, like X-Transbots'?

If someone's already answered this I get lost in the shuffle and don't always follow up after a few days.

I don't think anyone outside of the actual figure design knows, I asked the same question a while back. No mass shifting, so I am assuming the vehicle mode is going to be fairly small scale wise!

I know some people aren't fans of some of the simplistic parts of this figure, but if I had enough $$$ to collect MP's, I'd get this is one Autobot I'd get for sure.
For those of you who have a MP collection, where does Inferno rank?

I cancelled my Inferno pre order and will buy Ocular Max Back draft instead. I'm just not feeling Takara did the better job here.

Autobase Aichi has released to us a picture of what is to come with Masterpiece Inferno as his die-cast accessory. This time it's not a coin though, but rather a small die cast Optimus Prime! The little Prime looks to be based on the MP 10 style of design and will stand an inch and a half tall. Check out the image below, and let us know if this is something you will like to see with your Inferno!

That accessory is.. interesting.
I'll definitely be getting this. I don't know why but ever since I was a little kid I've always been drawn to rescue vehicles, so Inferno has always had a special place in my heart ever since I started watching G1

Posted by WeatherManNX01 on July 22nd, 2016 @ 2:21pm CDT

And just like the Masterpiece coins, I don't give a rat's behind about this die cast accessory. I don't need it; I don't want it. It does nothing for me. It'll just sit in the box (or standalone packaging, if it's like the coins) in storage until the day I choose to sell the figure (God forbid!).

Inferno was the first 2nd season deluxe Autobot to appear in the cartoon. I love how he and Beachcomber show up out of nowhere in the Insecticon Syndrome episode.

The masterpiece looks awesome even though a bit too cartoony for my taste. Some more chrome would have been nice
