Whoo hoo, Screamer's being made! The only downside I see are the inevitable re-colours of Skywarp and Thundercracker and maybe Dirge, Thrust, and Ramjet.

HooooooWEEEEEE!!!! 'Bout time they do a new MP TF! If they won't do a Megatron gun, what better Decepticon to do than good ol' Screamer? As far as repaints go, if this turns out to be the same caliber of TF that MP Convoy is, they can repaint it into Sunstorm and the Seeker Troopers too while they're at it. The seeker design is, imho one of the best TF designs ever! ;D

I think this is a great idea. It makes sense that the ultimate Starscream toy would be a Takara Masterpiece release. Sure beats seeing Starscream turned into a Binaltech/Alternator car!

I hope this is true, but I'm not believing this until there's better proof.
Since they probably wont do a show accurate MP Megatron, Starscream does seem like their best option.
This is either the worst hoax ever or the best TF new since the Movie.

Would be nice. I'd have to get this based on the sheer fact that my first official TF was ol' Screamer himself.

I'm looking forward to seeing a Masterpiece Starscream as well.

I hope they do him justice. The crown and opening cockpit. I always felt him to be superior to megatron. I mean he used megatron as a pistol. Even thou a MP megatron would make a interesting display.

appearently it is now confirmed that this is real, the new HBS-02 Convoy figure appearently comes with the insert paper that you see up at the top of the thread, but it does not have all those black lines on it. it clearly shows that it is indeed being released. which is very awesome news.

I've been waiting to the day where a perfect transforming F-15 Eagle Starscream which can rival the F-14 Valkyries from Macross! This should be very, very interesting indeed!
BTW, who's Megatron?!
(just kidding!!!)

SCHWEET! They managed to pull off a perfect robot form for Prime and a very decent truck mode. With their experience on the MP-01, I'm sure this Starscream will be no less than 'perfect' in both modes! @niko: Macross Valkyries are not F-14's.

@niko: Macross Valkyries are not F-14's. Heh...heh... I knew that Omni. No F-14 can go up in space like the Valkyries do. Maybe I should've said "based on the design of F-14". However, in my younger days, due to my admiration of the valkyries, I really got in into war machines, specifically jet fighters. Back to the topic, it's really great to hear that ol' Starscream gets the Masterpiece treatment. This is one Masterpiece that I don't wanna miss. I have to say that Starscream is my favorite evil!! I have been off Transformers for at least 7 years, but this news really excites me!!

Maybe they'll do a Black version of this MP Starscream, and lovingly label it as 'The Bad Comedy' Version. ... 'Bad Comedy' ya know? What Galvatron said before he fricaseed Starscreams @ss?

Omni, do you think repaints of Thundercracker and Skywarp will be issued?! I'm really hoping for an anime correct Ramjet, Dirge, or Thrust - the one with pointed heads, not the same type of generic Starscream body with different wings.
By the way, I didn't remember that "bad comedy" part. Is it in Transformer the movie?! Cause the last transformer show I ever saw was one of them crappy 3D Beastwars....
Does anybody here knows when this MP-03 is going to be released?!

Well as zeomare's post mentioned - if Takara is packing promo material in current product then barring some sort of bizarre incident, MP-03 would be on its way in the next half year, I would assume. Still, I'll believe it when I see a prototype at least.
Oh and, Galvatron's complete line was "'Coronation, Starscream? This is bad comedy!" He says it in the movie when he retakes command of the Decepticons after being reborn through Unicron... and even after killing Starscream, his relationship with Soundwave has never been the same...
