Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-6 Skywarp

David — Fri, 22 Jun 2007 04:34:45 +0000

The Transformers Masterpiece series continues with the next villain Skywarp. MP-6 schedules to release around Sep 2007 and should be tentatively priced at RM299.90 (US$85.99).

Skywarp is the sneakiest of the Decepticons. On Cybertron he was known to appear out of nowhere in the middle of peaceful Autobots villages to rain terror and destruction upon them, if the mood fell upon him. He’ll even use his teleportation poweres to play a prank on a fellow Decepticon. Everyone enjoys this except the butt of his joke since Skywarp’s sense of humor tends to be rather cruel and physically abusive. Skywarp isn’t too smart and would be totally useless without the supervision of Megatron.
