MP-60 Ginrai is the end of the Masterpiece toy line, but will it scale?
An in-depth look and reasons behind my opinion.
Then check out "Part 2: The Future of MP" for further examination of the end of the Masterpiece toy line and its replacement by the Masterpiece Gattai (MPG) line.
Thanks for watching!

My channel: Dedicated mostly to Transformers toy collecting (Masterpiece & Transformers Prime), I shoot and edit the videos to document and share my collecting experience to hopefully help you with yours.
WoW! That’s Incredibly Cool! Have a great week!
Thanks. You, too! 👍
I'm still waiting on MP Prime figures lol
Same here. 😆
Thank goodness i've only collected G1 of Season 1 / 2 and Partial Movie figures, never was into the Japanese continuity...
The only upsetting thing is not having official Jazz/Mirage in the Masterpiece scale... but I got very good alternatives...
Sounds like you’re set. 👍 You know what they say, “More bots, more problems”. 😆
I am very happy with my Fans Hobby Power Baser and the God Armour.
However, I am miffed that TakaraTomy appear to be abandoning the masterpiece scale when there're still many figures they haven't done. I've been waiting for the Insecticons (there's no way I'm paying the inflated prices for the Fans Toys ones), Galvatron, Jazz, Springer, heck all the triple changers and headmasters.
Power Baser looks really cool. 👍How tall is the base "Ginrai" bot compared to MP-10 or MP-44 Optimus? With the latest leaked announcement of a MPG Shattered Glass Optimus (th-cam.com/video/gaHX6NGiYZE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=EOccd2RrzuXI1i9n&t=130), I wouldn't be surprised if all Takara puts out in the near future from MPG are new "MPG class" characters and repaints of existing MP molds. If they do release new G1 MP size figures in the MPG line, I bet they'll string collectors along with mostly other stuff in between. 🙄
@@mp_reviews you know Mike!! Is like what you said!!..we have no Insecticons, they didn't finish the Dinobots, no Galvatron, Constructicons, or other season 1, 2, 3, Staple main Characters. But yet they'll do a Skids?..🤔 I mean, I don't get it? 🤷. Once again I love Takara, but is almost like Gosh!! Do they know there market?..than they released those Trainbots ..what a Catastrophe! I mean, am happy for people who bought them and love them!! But Goodness Gracious!! $160 for one Trainbot?..that looks like a CHUG mainline? That's insane. Did you see when he combines? It's like ..almost incredible that they actually sold this to the public. 😵
@@mp_reviews The Ginrai part of Power Baser is the same height as MP-10.
I believe Fans Hobby is reissuing Power Baser in the fourth quarter of this year..
@2006chunming Haha. Good point about Skids. I’m afraid Takara will be stringing out the remaining G1 characters people want among other releases (e.g. re-decos and other undersized combiners like Raiden) in the hope that Masterpiece TF fans will buy those along the way. If so, we may NEVER get Takara releases of some of the G1 characters people want. #pleasetakaratomy #moreg1masterpieceplease
Mann!! Great video Mike!! Yes!! I agree with everything said. Personally, for me ..I could never really understand Takara. Is almost like they lack focus. One day they're doing a Hoist, another day they'll be Transformers masterforce, than they'll go to season 3. But yet those Train bots don't scale with the actual Masterpiece line. Than they say there coming out with an MPG line that will replace the current Masterpiece line. But they don't really clarify if the Numeric sequence will continue? Will it be MPG-01? 🤷♂️ ..people are not sure if they're going with another scale 🤔...is almost like they lack focus and direction!..to be honest. Third-party has literally been the Go To for alot of collectors. If companies like Fanstoys, Xtransbots, Mmc Ocular Max, Deformation Space, Star toys, wouldn't exist..I don't think I would collect. I surely hope they're successful!! Because I really do love Takara! I think there Hoist and Trailbreaker are the Definitive versions of the Characters imo! Also Mp-44, MP-47 Hound, and imo they get the Articulation and they seem to capture likenesses of the Characters the Best. But I think sometimes like xtb..they pick poor choices in materials. Imo!! Mmc seems to be the best when it comes to that plability factor. As always great video Mike!!❤
Thanks, bro! I think Takara knows that the most hard-core fans are G1 fans, and so they're in no rush to release the entire cast since there are other TF eras they might be able to get G1 fans and others to buy along the way. If they aren't careful, third-party might eat their lunch! And if we see third-party releases get cancelled and become fewer and fewer, we'll know that Takara/Hasbro has held third-party's chain all this time.
I think mp-60 and mpg-09 will be full backwards compatible with original powermaster toy. So, scale of mpg-09 will be roughly the same as mp-24.
I’m confused: “backwards compatible with original powermaster toy”? Do you mean with the original G1 Powermaster Optimus Prime?
The only thing changing is the name on the box…
Hmmm, maybe.
Just get FansHobby's version of Power Master Optimus Prime.
That is a cool version for sure. Is the base robot the same height as MP-10/MP-44?
@@mp_reviews Yep.
That’s freaking awesome! Great recommendation! Thanks. 🙏🤜🤛
@@mp_reviews You're welcome! Also don't forget to pick up FansHobby Darkwing and Dreadwind so you have those characters along with PowerMaster Optimus Prime to recreate issue 42 from the Transformers comic.
