I'm hoping it's Star Saber,As it will be followed up by Victoryleo. If these Two get released as MP TF doors,This will open up the flood gates doors for more Exclusive Takara TF character toys like Deathsaurus,MF Overlord,Dia atlus.

I just hoped it's not another Optimus/convoy themed MP TF toy. the market is just too flooded with these character toys. I think Ginrai,super Ginrai,God Ginrai will make awful MP TF toys. I don't want to see a MP TF CR Fire Convoy nor any MP AEC Covoys. I'd be open to a MP TF BW II Lioconvoy if it's leader sized. I don't want to ever see any MP TF toys for BW Optimus Primal nor BW NEO Big Convoy as I thought the molds were super ugly.

My 2nd place option for a MP TF toy is Fortress maximus,done in a similar titan metroplex toy style. obviously the double heamaster feature needs to get added into the toy.

An the winner is....

1.STAR SABER
2.CONVOY(ARMADA OP)
3.SUPER GINRAI
4.DAI ATLAS
5.SUPER FIRE CONVOY(RID OP)
6.CONVOY(BW primal)
7.GALAXY CONVOY(Cybertron OP)
8.BIG CONVOY
9.LIO CONVOY
10.GRAND CONVOY(ENERGON OP)
11.FORTRESS MAXIMUS

http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... oll/28807/ Thread update: Takara has announced their fan choice MP TF toy today & It's Starsabre. This means we will be getting a MP TF toy for Starsabre in either 2014 or 2015. Lets not forget Takara's 30th TF anniversary is in 2015. Lets also remember takara is releasing several MP TF's in 2014 like Wheeljack,Bumblebee & Ultra magnus,So the chances of a MP Starsabre in 2014 seems slim. I Support this MP Starsabre because this opens up doors for other exclusive Takara Japanese TF toys like Victoryleo who combines with starsabre,Masterforce Overlord,Deathsaurus,Sixshot,Dia atlus,etc... I'm just not a fan of Takara wasting MP TF toy slots on those small/dull/lackluster 1984-1985 Autobots cars.

For those curious, here are the full results of the Masterpiece poll:
1. Star Saber (Transformers Victory) - 31.2%
2. Convoy (Micron Legend) / Transformers Armada Optimus Prime - 24.3%
3. Super Ginrai (Chojin Masterforce) / Powermaster Optimus Prime (Generation 1) - 18.6%
4. Dai Atlas (Transformer Zone) - 8.0%
5. Super Fire Convoy (Car Robots) / Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime - 4.9%
6. Beast Convoy / Beast Wars Optimus Primal - 4.6%
7. Galaxy Convoy (Galaxy Force) / Transformers Cybertron Optimus Prime - 2.5%
8. Big Convoy (Beast Wars Neo) - 2.1%
9. Lio Convoy (Beast Wars Second) - 2.0%
10. Grand Convoy (Transformers Super Link) / Transformers Energon Optimus Prime - 1.5%
11. Fortress Maximus (Generation 1 / The Headmasters) - 0.3%

My comments: I Can't believe the 2nd place went to Armada Convoy,what a ugly sculpted mold. it's odd fort max got last place,i would have thought fans would have wanted another Titan toy via fort max. it's hard to stomach that japanese fans would vote less for lioconvoy & more for the two uglier sculpted big convoy & ape convoy.

I don't think the sculpts of the original figures matter that much here, considering a Masterpiece version of the character would be a completely new sculpt anyway... Besides, that's all in the eye of the beholder. All 3 of them were pretty cool figures if you ask me.

I am surprised that Armada Optimus was voted number 2. I'd be interesting to see how they might improve upon it for a Masterpiece, but I wasn't a big fan of most of the Armada figures. Also surprised Fortress Maximus was dead last. Would have though he would have beat out Energon Optimus at least. At any rate, glad to see Star Saber won the vote. It'll be great to see him get a Masterpiece figure.
