Via Twitter users @brickonator and @amiamihobbynews, we have our first images of the upcoming Masterpiece MP-42 Cordon.
MP-42 Cordon is a repaint of MP-39 Sunstreaker, based on the Pre-Transformer Diaclone Police Car version of Sunstreaker. We reported this release just a few days ago, and now we have our first image of the figure from the Shizouko Hobby Show. The figure shines in pure white, as it was the Diaclone version. The new head is toy-accurate and features vibrant red eyes now, and the chest has got the police car siren on it. We see some new remolds and details on the black parts of the leg too. One interesting thing to notice is the new chromed hand gun, which seems it can become an arm cannon.
We still have no information about other accessories or bonus for this figure but, according to our previous report, MP-42 Cordon will be released this October.
You can see the mirrored images after the jump and then sound off at the 2005 Boards!

Ugh, I ordered Cordon from RoboToyBase last month and ISC Chicago has been holding it hostage. It's original delivery date was June 29th and it's just been sitting there doing nothing… Gimme my stuff USPS!
BTW this is the last update…
Processed but not moving along to it's next destination. Wonderful.

I was also carefully thinking about that exact word choice of ‘deals’. I think you’re right about this particular phrase. And Obi wasn’t one of the blinded members of the council.

I've always thought this too, but I read somewhere recently that only a sith deals in absolutes. Obi Wan wasn't dealing in an absolute, he was simply stating an absolute. There's a difference between stating something vs dealing in something. Obi Wan is a very "certain point of view" type of person, so a little detail like this would probably be an important detail to him lol

GOLD.

Exactly. Hence my inclusion of it I loved that line because it sums up perfectly the hubris of the Jedi. They considered themselves so perfect that they didn't even see what they were saying was exactly what they were accusing others of.
I think there's a similar one in the Simpsons along the lines of 'don't judge people you don't know. That's what they do in Russia!'
Just as my telling you that they definitely didn't mean Gordon would have been pure congecture since I don't know the person. Which is why I try to choose my words carefully and try not to present my beliefs as facts.
Anyway, all that to say not a lot

Fixed
"Only a Sith deals in absolutes" I've always considered this to be the true smoking gun that the Jedi order was wrong about them on some level. Isn't this exact sentiment an 'absolute'?
mcart
Well, to be fair, I said unlikely, not impossible. For all I know the guy in charge of naming could have been a huge Gordon Ramsey fan. I'd have expected a reference to his coarse language being in direct contrast to his refined food, but I don't know whoever this person is so I cannot speak to absolutes
Only a Sith deals in absolutes
