So wie es aussieht, wird der Masterpiece MP-24 Star Saber Bios in einer kleinen Auflage auch für Hasbro erscheinen, aber dann wohl nur in Australien. Für diesen Zweck hat ein Mitarbeiter das Bios übersetzt.
"The Japanese bio is based on Star Sabre's appearance in Transformers Victory, where he was -- character-wise -- basically a clone of Optimus Prime (re: flawless heroic saviour archetype). The English bio is based on IDW Star Sabre, where Star Sabre is an incredibly dark character." In the Japanese booklet, Star Sabre's function is "Autobot Supreme Commander." For the Hasbro version, his function has been changed to 'Duly Appointed Enforcer of the Tyrest Accord' (at times abbreviated to 'Tyrest Accord Enforcer' or just "Autobot Enforcer" in different parts of the booklet). " "TakaraTOMY writes their MP bios from a Japanese continuity POV for their market (e.g. MP22's bio makes references to Scramble City), so I felt that for Hasbro's release, I'd like to go in the other direction and write it from an Anglophone continuity perspective for Hasbro's markets -- hence why I removed all mention of Scramble City from MP22's bio, but I did name his weapon the "Ambus Class laser gun." But small continuity discrepancies aside, Ultra Magnus is essentially the same character in both Japanese and Western continuities. This isn't the case with Star Sabre, so adapting his bio for Hasbro presented me with the opportunity to be a lot more creative and complete reinvent his bio based on his appearances in the IDW comics. I've also made references to the G1 Motorvators (the Hasbro versions of the Brainmasters; although Star Sabre was the only Brainmaster never released by Hasbro as a Motorvator during G1"
