Visual Checklist & Reviews<\/h2>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

This checklist includes toys released under the Transformers: Masterpiece label. It is broken into two sections: an catalog-themed checklist that takes figures released by TakaraTomy in Japan, Hasbro’s domestic & Asian releases to form a cohesive line and a simple table of other releases in the MP line that have either been replaced by improved versions or are additional variant releases to a toy already in the checklist. The choices made are strictly that of the checklist creator. Individual collections may vary. US names are used throughout the checklist; a glossary is included below. <\/p>\n

If IAT has a review available, it will be linked on this page. If not, links may lead to an offsite review. Offsite reviews do not necessarily reflect the views of IAT.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Previous Releases & Character Variants:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Masterpiece Releases in this section are official releases in the line, but are excluded from the checklist above due to scale, being a variant of a character in the checklist, or having been replaced by a newer release that better fits in with the line.
