Skids (MP-53)

Description:
Skids (November 20, 2021)
ID number: MP-53
Hasbro release name: Autobot Skids

Accessories: liquid nitrogen rifle, twin electron blaster

Masterpiece Skids was announced by TakaraTomy at the beginning of 2021 with black-and-white model drawings, and later was shown in prototype form by Honda Japan’s Twitter. Like the other Masterpiece Autobot cars, Skids can fit inside Convoy’s (MP-10 or MP-44) trailer in vehicle mode.

Designed in collaboration with Honda to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Honda City, Masterpiece Skids transforms into an officially-licensed 1st generation Honda City Turbo vehicle mode, featuring opening front doors, an opening hood with engine detailing underneath, an openable rear trunk that can store some of his accessories, and a basic interior capable of fitting the Spike Witwicky figurine that came included with MP-44 Convoy inside.

For accessories, Skids comes with his liquid nitrogen rifle and twin electron blaster, both of which can be stored in his alt mode’s openable rear trunk. In robot mode, both weapons can either peg into the top of the forearm like the original G1 Skids toy or on the side of the forearm via dedicated slots.

This toy was retooled into MP-54 Reboost that was released simultaneously, and the Reboost tooling of the mold would subsequently be redecoed into MP-53+ Crosscut.
