Transformers Masterpiece
discussion here. As stated in a recently translated interview from 2011, the TF Masterpiece line is headed in a new direction lead by
Hasui Shogo
, AKA
Mr. Starscream
. He designed many of the Starscream figures from the past few years and his 1st MP design was
MP10 Masterpiece Convoy V2
. He aims for more playability, styling close to the G1 cartoon(and various influences from the G1 Marvel comics, recent cartoons, et al), and some smaller MP toys at a cheaper pricepoint..like MP Sideswipe. He TRIED to get a MP Huffer made JUST BECAUSE the guy towed Prime's trailer once in the cartoon! Unfortunately MP Huffer was cut out of MP10 due to cost. Nonetheless..wow talk about dedication.
Interview is here:

New images of MP11 Starscream V2(Mr. Starscream revised this design significantly, the original was designed by Kobayashi Hironori, who designed MP1-MP9):

Note that unlike MP3, there was no design revision by Kawamori Shoji this time around. While MP11 resembles how the original MP3 prototype looked before Kawamori's revision, it does in fact, have a substantial amount of new parts aside from the coronation gear.

MP Lambor AKA SIDESWIPE!:

Mr. Starscream said he has hints of future MP's designed all over MP10 and that he wants to work on a combiner.
