What Now? (The New Masterpiece – Part 2)
Geneva Motor Show 1971?
What if Hasbro don’t release the Lamborghini Countach moulds as part of their Masterpiece Transformers line?

Superior
You can’t keep a good thing down, and Transformers has continued to go from strength to strength in 2012. New offshoots of the brand were announced, and with a seemingly assured future for at least a couple more years, and well loved parts of the toy line being extended with very popular additions, Transformers enthusiasts have much to be excited about.
