Takara Tomy Mall has put up a listing for MP-18+ Streak, aka Bluestreak. This is a cartoon inspired deco of the original release featuring a more matte paint job, new faces, and effect parts that can plug into his gun or shoulder canons coming directly from the show. He’s a limited release through the direct Takara sales website but many of our sponsors should get copies of it below, keep an eye out for pre-orders there. MP18+ Bluestreak is retailing for 9180 Yen (about $83 US) and is due to ship in Late July 2019. Read on to check out all the pretty pics!

I can tell you this, the + versions of Streak and Smokescreen are awesome. The extra faces and muted colors really give the toys that cartoon personality.

Thanks.

Looks like they can only ship to the mainland US.

Looks like Hasbro Toy Shop on Ebay has a few MP-19+ for sale at the moment.

If you're still looking tftoys.ca has him in stock. I just ordered a copy – now all I need is a decent priced plus version of smokescreen…

So does anyone know of any sellers who have the plus version for sale?

I'm not so bothered about the plus prowl and the plus smokescreen chin puts me off lol, plus streak was a must though as I couldn't get another of the exact same mold again, bad enough doing that with the seekers. View attachment 29081825

There isn't a KO of the + streak ?

So um, I can't seem to find a real good In stock listing for this guy that isn't sold out or KOs sold at Voyager-Titan class price point
Smokescreen I don't have to worry about getting it's just why is this so hard to find?

I've got + versions of Prowl and Wheeljack. I just need to get + versions of Streak and Smokescreen.

Further to my previous post, I ordered MP-18B yesterday. I was kind of torn between that and MP-18+ as I do like the traditional colours too… but the blue and silver look called to me. I guess I could have gotten both and head-canon them as brothers 'Streak' and 'Bluestreak' but I'm spending too much on this hobby already.
He's in my BBTS sack of loot. I'm just waiting for them to release my pre-order of Kingdom Megatron before shipment. I think that purple dinosaur might drag his feet until April.

Waiting for re-do's.
+'s are nice though, specially Wheeljack.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

These days, I tend to think that anything Masterpiece scale and new that is under £/$100 is a good deal.

He is well worth the price. He is stunning, and the only blue Bluestreak we have ever officially gotten in Datsun form. I would have preferred he have the Bluestreak head, but I get what they were going for, and technically the Prowl head looks better. No way you can regret this purchase.

Thanks for your reply.
I just looked on eBay and the cheapest I see is £79.99 (so close to the price at BBTS $99.99) and that's second hand. After that it goes up to £130.80.
Of course eBay sellers will demand whatever, but if they're not widely available any more the BBTS price (new) doesn't look so bad.
