It may have some competition from Generations Voyager Springer for that title.EagleTron wrote:I had took out my mpTigertrack out the packaging and it was my first mp out of all my masterpiece transformers that I took out and let me tell you that this mold is Crazily good, Stupid good. It just might be the Best Transformer mold Ever. The "holy grail" of Transformers figures.

Don't get me wrong, that Springer is good. And it might be king but mp sideswipe g2 sideswipe is the king of kings, Greatness. The only transformer that can come close is animated leader ultra Magnus. Its a Lamborghini Contach. Its just too good. Almost Everything about that Sideswipe magnificent mp mold is good, imo.

Now that's interesting. Haven't heard one give that much praise to Animated Leader Ultra Magnus. Maybe back in the day, I can see, but especially not in this day and age with all of the MPs and Thrilling 30 Generations being so good and all.EagleTron wrote:Sabrblade wrote:It may have some competition from Generations Voyager Springer for that title.EagleTron wrote:I had took out my mpTigertrack out the packaging and it was my first mp out of all my masterpiece transformers that I took out and let me tell you that this mold is Crazily good, Stupid good.

Derek Yaniger, not David.

G2 Sideswipe was my first ever Transformers toy as a kid. It was called Freccia in Italy.

I'll be following this.

But I preordered this guy in the summer, and he cannot come soon enough. MAN, what a perfect figure. I'll be debating whether or not to apply the stickers. I had the original G2 Sideswipe, so I kind of want to apply them, but I also kind of want to keep the comic look intact. Tough call.
