Beast Wars Masterpiece MP-48 Lio Convoy was first revealed at Tokyo Toy Show 2019, and then shown again at Wonder Festival 2019 in Japan, even official images have been already shared, but we still don’t have any concrete information about the release of the Beast Wars II commander.
2005 Boards member TTemploy (who has shared some accurate information for us before) has shared in our boards a possible list of Beast Wars Masterpiece MP-48 Lio Convoy content & accessories, price and release date:
- 1 Lio Convoy toy
- 4 Lio missiles
- 2 Lio beam
- 1 Manual
- 1 Cybertron Buster
- 1 Character card
- Retail price 20000 Yen ($184.27 approximately)
- Pre-orders start on August 7th
- Release date by the end of February 2020
It’s good to notice that there’s no mention of the Artemis figurine shown in Figure King #257. As usual, take this with a grain of salt until we get an official confirmation. If this information proves to be accurate, you may want to keep an eye for pre-orders in our sponsors, they may surface any time soon.

Probably a long shot. Does anyone still want their Cybertron Buster. I lost mine… I’ll keep looking.

Got this fella a while ago from TFS Express for 178$ shipped. I really like him although the red paint is very weak!

Not to bad knowing that I paid under 184 for this makes it that much better.
Gamerlingual
Well done.

Scored one with legacy version. For 116 practical paid 58 bucks per figure.

Recently started watching BW II and I've been thinking about this. Anything else I should watch out for other than hands and some clips Jobby mentioned in his review?
I'll appreciate any tips
Onilink
Thanks for the offer, but i think i'll try to repair mine, i have only to figure why, but i have some ideas. That part is not fragile… It's more than that. I'll keep you informed anyway.

If the hands are different hands maybe one of us could buy the other as a junker? But shipping for me is rather insane these days. Korean EMS used to be pretty cheap

With a lot of g1 S1/2 teams moved to mpg subline, we can totally see some maximal and predacons in MP regular line.
I think we have the same breakage, maybe i'm more lucky with a bit of that conjunction ring that held up the hand.
Gamerlingual
Far from it. I agree. The repaint speaks volumes that the line will continue.

Seeing this thread bumped onto the index was mildly ball-aching.

Lio Convoy (along with Burning Convoy and Tigatron) came out in 2020. Dark Amber is coming out in 2023, making it almost three years (based on release dates) since a BW-MP and the fact they're making the next entry a black repaint of all things…
Also, said black repaint isn't even technically accurate either even if it's supposed to be a "new" character who just happens to share the same colors as a previous incarnation. Right, Takara. Suire.

With an upcoming repaint, it’s not quite dead yet! I am convinced we’ll see more new molds at some point for sure.
Gamerlingual
When was that announced?
Alpha_&_Omega
Yeah, check out transart… alive. Kicking. Kick'n ass & take'n names.

Cosmic rust.
Also much sadness from being reminded that BW MPs are DEAD; FINISHED.
HolyCulture
Mine is impossible to fix. I’m going to have to find a junker or just buy a new one
Onilink
Same to me, it was stuck by the paint but amazon gave me a partial refound, better than nothing. Any idea how to repair it? I was thinking about some magnetic paint, but i don't know if it works
Alpha_&_Omega
Happened to mine… after he did a high dive off my top shelf. Got a second copy and moved on.
Gamerlingual
I don’t recall anything of the sort nor seen any offsite threads in Japan on it
