Title:
Transformers-Bluestreak
Description:
Streak (2013-10-26)
ID number: MP-18
Accessories: Disperser Rifle, Missile Launcher (Amazon.co.jp only)
Masterpiece Streak is a redeco and retool of MP-17 Prowl, removing the light-bar and having a new head and waist. He transforms into a licensed Nissan Fairlady 280Z-T, and as with other figures in the Masterpiece line, is intended to be an accurate representation of his cartoon model, and even features an extensive black and metallic silver paint scheme. Roughly as tall as a Voyager Class figure, he is also in scale with MP-10 Optimus Prime, and can fit inside Prime’s trailer in vehicle mode. In contrast to previous larger entries in this line, Streak lacks die-cast parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic.For accessories, he comes with his rifle, which can be held with his hands, or can mount onto a flip-out mounting point on his roof via the separate peg on its jointed handle. He also comes with a pair of built-in ”Electro Bolt” shoulder cannons that can be deployed in robot mode.If purchased in Japan through Amazon.com, one additionally gets a single non-firing toy-accurate missile launcher accessory, which can cover and replace either of his shoulder cannons, as well as tab onto the rear sides of his vehicle mode. If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a collector’s coin is included instead of or in addition to the launcher. The coin itself identifies him as Bluestreak.There are some issues concerning aligning the car’s roof onto the body of the figure. In order to properly attach the back/roof top of the mold, the mid chest panel located in front of the torso must be tilted slightly forward and attached to the small indentation under the figure’s ”car hood”. This will allow the back frame to straighten and get the two pegs on the windshield to lock into the two slots at the back of the car hood.This mold was also redecoed and retooled into MP-19 Smokescreen. Streak and Prowl were to be released simultaneously, but Prowl was pushed back one month and Streak two months to meet demand.
