Via Baidu user 六阶威震天 we have new stock images of Beast Wars Masterpiece MP-50 Tigatron for your viewing pleasure.
First revealed at Wonder Festival 2020 in Japan, Tigatron got the attention of Beast Wars fans quickly thanks to his correct size and really cartoon-accurate design in both modes. The new stock images give us a good idea of the posabiluty in robot and beast mode. We have a better look at some of the accessories included:
- The cable he used to plug-in to the Darksyde’s computer in “Before the Storm.”
- Alternative eyes for beast mode.
- Interchangeable faces including a shouting expression.
- A Megatron head, reference to the cube puzzle in the computer.
Check out all the images after the jump and then you can join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!

So I just got mine and the waist extends in robot mode but it flops forward. It's not the same joint as the ratcheted ab crunch. What's the purpose? It's not show accurate.

It might help to se the other side of it. Looks like a screw cover but I’d assume you’d notice if it was one of the ones on the tiger face.

A month or two after MP-50's release.

Packaging is completely different from the real Tigatron

There is a knock off, but I don't know what the packaging is like.

made there any known KO’s that come in the same packaging? I just received my tigatron and the quality feels great. Just wanna be aware.

Um… so be careful with the legs when transforming him. When transforming him correctly, it's totally fine, but if you are doing a blind transform (like i always do), just be aware you need to slide his knee slideways before you can fully straighten it. Trying to straighten it without doing that can break it.
Otherwise, I don't actually remember hearing of many issues with him at all.

From Generations 2021. Nothing new as far as I can tell. Just a nice collection of pics.

I am still impressed by MP50 and I’m thrilled to have it in my collection. Is anyone else hoping that the Kingdom figure borrows a lot from this design?
Basically, I’d love to have a version of this engineering that is simplified enough that I can screw around with and not fret about damage/wear.

Ooh, I've heard good things about Jungle before but never purchased through there. Thanks for the suggestion I'll certainly have a gander over there since all that's left to pickup for now is the MP-46.

Congrats! Glad it's in such great condition!
Yeah, Mandarake is great. There's one not too far from me and I've picked up quite a few figures there. Jungle is another good Japanese retailer to keep an eye on.

I'm pleased to announce the arrival of my collection’s bouncing, bad-ass, tiger baby brother. Despite the fiasco involving delivery the price was a sweetheart and certainly made up for the trouble. Thanks again [Wing_Saber-X] for the lead and those of you who voiced positive dealings with Mandarake. Like most of you mentioned the box and figure inside were in great condition!

"They ain't worth the effort" is exactly why I block – a few button clicks, and I never have to waste a single second on scrolling past that nonsense again.
EDIT: But, obvs, whatever works for you! I would just encourage everyone who's shied away from the "Ignore" function to give it a try – you can always undo it! I'm here to read about neat toys, not to let someone's worst impulses spill into my day, and the "Ignore" function gives both parties what we want: I get to read about neat toys in peace, and they get to boil and writhe and rage to their heart's content.
