That looks more like a movie cel. The cels for the show were not as detailed.
This looks like Optimus prime from the Japanese produced series. You can tell from the position of his exhaust pipes (on his arm in the original American production - on his back in the 'power master' Japanese season).
Search for 'Ginrai' on google and check out the images if you want to compare - you can also use youtube for comparisons.
It turns out it is Ginrai from EP 24 Battle in the Desert. Do you guys have any idea how much Masterforce cels go for? I think I have been taken for a ride. Thanks again for the help! Grant

It's natural to think the G1 cels will go for premiums, but masterforce i just don't know about. I'm not even sure how old the series is.
I certainly don't think the ad was clear enough to say it was from the Masterforce series. I notice there was a question posed to the seller saying it was from Japan, and he added additional comments, but they are very lacking compared to the body text. I'd wait around for a Tranformers cel expert to advise you - there are a couple of big collectors here who should know more.
