It's probably just there to make it easier to open his mouth or something. I wonder if this one will have missiles?

He doesn't. There's a pic floating around showing him holding his guns- they're one solid piece of gold plastic.

You mean this one?

Which is actually a much clearer picture than the one I posted earlier, btw, plus you can see a lot more of his shiny counterpart.

 

EDIT: And a much nicer version of the other previous shot, courtesty of TFormers.

It's about slaggin time! I orderd this and a few other things in Oct. from Toy Obsesed and didn't think it was ever going to be released. Maybe I'll finally get my package. This is the longest wait ever.

looks great to me.

It looks a little silly...

 

I love my snarl...no chin...the mouth opens and the head turns.....and has no kibble!

Yeah, but it's all about the head sculpt baby.

 

So who cares to take a guess at who or what Lio Convoy's RM counterpart might be? Think about it, we've got two molds from G1, two from Victory, and two from BW so far. It doesn't make any sense that Takara would just make one character from BWII and leave it at that. Obviously Galvatron would be out of the picture, but it wouldn't surprise me to see a Lio Junior or maybe even something out of BW Neo.

RM Nemesis Prime?

Why would galvatron be out of the picture?? its an alternate universe after all.

 

AND THE BEAST HEAD ON LIO IS PANTS (excuse caps), plus I liked the original chest on Lio Convoy. whats wrong with it?

I meant BWII Galvatron. It just seems to me that, based on the level of complexity of the original and the fact he was a triple-changer, he wouldn't easily translate into a scaled-down RM mold. They could do it if they took out his drill-tank mode, though, which would be fine with me.

I wouldn't mind an RM Gigatron in the Mega Size Class
