Toys
Masterpiece
- Rigorous (March 30, 2024)
- ID number: MP-56+
- Accessories: shoulder cannons, twin-barrelled guns, force barrier
- Masterpiece Rigorous is a redeco and retooling of MP-56 Trailbreaker; molded to resemble the yellow Diaclone "4WD Hi-Lux" figure. Rigorous transforms into a fully-licensed Toyota 4WD Hi-Lux camper truck with an opening hood and doors.
- In terms of accessories, Rigorous comes with two shoulder guns, two double-barrelled pistols which can mount over their hands, and a plastic "force barrier" effect part which pegs onto Rigorous's chest. In the proud Masterpiece tradition of packing additional cartoon accessories with redecoes, that last one is a screen-accurate reproduction of Trailbreaker's trademark force field ability as seen in the Generation 1 cartoon episode "The Immobilizer," intended for use with his own Masterpiece figure. What significance it holds for Rigorous (if any) remains unknown.
Notes
- Back in 1982, Takara released the Diaclone mecha toy 4WD Hi-luxe (4
WD ハイラックス) in three decoes. In 1984, Hasbro used the black version to make Generation 1 Trailbreaker. Long afterward, the blue version would become Generations Selects/Legacy DK-3 Breaker in 2022. Finally in 2024, the yellow version came to fruition as Masterpiece Rigorous.
