このバンドを初めて知ることになったアルバムで、きっかけは私の大好きなBill Champlinがゲストで1曲参加していることを知った2012年の事でした。そしてこのバンドのTower Of Powerにも通しるファンキーなサウンド、ボーカリスト兼キーボードのSpencer Burrowsの歌声に魅了され瞬く間にファンになりました。そしてこのアルバムからホーンセクションを含む8人編成のバンドとなりました。 4th studio album was released by Frobeck Music on August 25, 2012.

MP-12 「サイバトロン戦士 ランボル」
MP-12「サイバトロン戦士 ランボル」 ぶっちゃけ超合金魂をマネしたような仕様で始まったMP第一弾のコンボイ。 とはいえ個人的にはあの凝った変形パターンや鈍器並の重さ、野暮ったいスタイル等、 いま見ても非常にワクワクする玩具です。 ただその後のMPシリーズは迷走の一途。 高額商品で白マグナス、誰得な河森コレジャナイスク、錆るヒョロい破壊大帝・・・ 客が望む方向とは別にタカラのその時期の技術力を見せ付けるためだけの 自己満足企画に成り下がった感がありました。 さらにロディマスの不具合っぷりや、期待されたコンボイVer.2も濃いファン以外買わない、 恐ろしく高い値段設定と買っている方もどうしていいのかわからない状態・・・。 個人的にはこのランボルでやっと満足のいくMPシリーズになった気がします。 もちろん「マスターピース」と謳うわりにタイヤがプラ製だとか、ほぼプラ製で軽いとか 塗装精度が低い等の意見もありますが、それでも個人的にはこの仕様がベスト。 ダイキャストは無駄に弄りにくくなるだけだし、タイヤは割れるぐらいならプラ製で十分。 塗装も個人的には許容範囲。 手が届きやすい価格設定、弄りやすいサイズ、凝ってはいるが複雑すぎない適度な変形ギミック、 カーモード、ロボットモードともちゃんとランボルしてるし、なにより見栄えが良すぎて飾っていてウットリしてしまう。 サイズがジェネレーションやユナイテッドと合わないのは残念ですが、今後のラインナップに期待したいです。 この仕様でぜひ、マイスターやハウンド、ホイルジャック、サンストリーカ達、他のサイバトロン戦士達もお願いします。 そそて今回、この記事かいててオートボットではなく「サイバトロン」等の和名を書くのも ほとんどこのマスターピースシリーズぐらいしかないんだな、とちょい寂しくなりました。 サイドスワイプ?いいえ、ランボルです。 というかむしろランボル(サイドスワイプ)とかにしちゃってもいい気もしますが・・・。 http://departuretime.fuyu.gs/18_masterpeace/MP12_LAMBOR.html
