MP Spinout (Non-Sunstreaker) by Omnigonix. Pics received by Daimshock on Tw2005 : "It is in the final design phase with only a few more minor tweaks before prototyping and then due for release Q4 2014 if all goes well. Please note in the render that head sculpt is not 100% final and there will be options for varying degrees of cartoon/toy/comic accuracy."More images will be available in the coming weeks. We expect to have a prototype in-hand in the coming months." Not that bad... Those tech parts on front legs need to be framed. Comparo : Here goes the digibash :

The face is a little iffy and he's got some meaty thighs, but it's still a very impressive looking effort and I'm excited (just as I was with Cubex Huff) to be able to continue to add more car-sized MPs to my collection. I'll be watching this with great interest!

Comparo : Here goes the digibash : I have never bought a third party figure and swore I never would. Thought about it when the third party shockwaves came out. If they make this sunstreaker though, I think I will have to buy it. I doubt there is any way takara could do better - this is so close to a kanzen Henkei design it's nuts. I love how you can still see the rear end of the countach in both car and bot mode and it's not some sh*tty flat filler panel. This design is full of win!

"- Head sculpt is proxy, not at all final. There are limitations on the dimensions of the bounding box area due to transformation but things like the actual face sculpt and other small details are yet to be done. We've left this until last moment to get it just right. There will be options for the face/head sculpt - depending on budget constraints/time. We have plans for this and want to see them to fruition - We do have several redecos in mind.
- The ONLY parts forming are the 2x blaster nozzles - one of which you see attached to the wrist. The figure does indeed have TWO hands. The blaster nozzles are optional.
- There will definitely be no car badges.
- Some small details are missing from the alt mode test render as they were not made yet - still more small details to come for the car body that will be in the final renders. The final renders will come when we have completed the head sculpt.
- He is absolutely MP scale. In fact We have taken great care to scale him in bot mode to his 'brother'. From the neck down, every major body part/joint should line up 1:1. His head crest is a couple of mm taller than Sideswipe and the backpack intakes make him a tad taller still.
- Alt mode is nearly 1:1 to Sideswipe/Alert, bar some cosmetic liberties - but overall dimensions will match.
- All new sculpt - no re-used or copied designs elements. Some design element inspiration from MP-12 to get them to match, paying homage to the cartoon - but entirely new.
-Thigh flaps are NOT car seats. This has no interior.
- Constructive criticisms are well received (either harsh or not, but honest and informative) and We will take under advisement if we think it will improve the product. We are watching the forums."

That Lio Convoy looks like something that can shout "Sparta!!!" then kick someone down a bottomless pit I'll be watching very closely - I hope it will be voyager sized at least. And that Sunstreaker... I want it, like, now!

That does look good and will go with extra MP Prime.

Some many primes fit in that armor. G1, classics, evasion, pm. I read the QC wasn't that great. That is what kept me from getting one.
Edit: just woke up and thought it was for their armor. I might look for a cheap YOTH mp10 for this.
