Takara have announced an Anime version of Red Alert, complete with anime style Autobot symbol and off white paint job. Not sure how I feel about this; are they going to revisit Soundwave to paint white what was previously silver? Anime Wheeljack without sponsor logos? For me it's a little too slavish to the cartoon, with next to no detail in alt mode; not even headlights. Looks like Hasui's real world car concept is no more; maybe they couldn't get a license for Jazz, Cliffjumper or Sunstreaker and have decided to to go more anime accurate so they don't need to get actual licenses in future and not use real world vehicles. If so that wouldn't be Masterpiece at all to me; that's what CHUG was for.
