The official Takara Tomy Transformers Twitter have shared an image of two production samples of the new Transformers Beast Wars Masterpiece MP-50 Tigatron.
The picture shows two Tigatron samples, one in robot mode and the other one in beast mode. We are sure Beast Wars collectors would be really pleased with the cartoon-accurate look of this figure in both modes.
Tigatron is due to be released in a few days, and you can still pre-order him via our sponsors links below. Click on the discussion link below and sound off on the 2005 Board!

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.
