Okay, now this one is out of the way on both sides of the Pacific, can Hasbro or Takara-Tomy please make MP Skyward from the new mold?
-
I'll get one tomorrow, and then a parakeet so I can use the comic to line its cage.

I guess it won't be the 30th anniversary until Fall. It'll be movie toys until then.
-
Definitely skipping Tankor.
-
Price . . . hurts.

You see that, game designers of Fall of Cybertron? THAT'S how you make a not-space shuttle.

:agreesb What a worthless piece.
That's a neat detail, but I would rather the figures were $5 - $10 cheaper than getting a coin. I don't know very many if any of my friends who care about the coins. Why didn't they announce this earlier? :tfevil Would be an interesting poll on how many people collect the coins in the MP Series. I wonder if there is a MP Coin holder case to display them all......

It looks like a Micron figure from Transformers Prime.
-
Wow. It's very nice, but a little too much for me. I'd rather just have FansProject make their own new Combaticons to go with their Swindle and Blast-Off.
-
It makes IGear's version look like a cheap bootleg.
-
Nice.
-
Yeah, RtS Lugnut is a great toy. I love the way the wings turn into arms, a good example of how the larger size class can benefit a Transformer's design.
-
I bought, opened, transformed, and returned TFP Hot Shot. The alt-mode looks nice, but that robot mode is lousy. There's no way to lock the torso into place and the auto-transform gimmick prevents the head from being flush with the top of the torso.
-
The Starcats look like a combiner team from some other toy line, like the Brave Series of robot toys. The "Dinobots" still look like some sort of weird dollar store set.
-
How about The DinoChange Combiner Force which forms the super-robot Combinosaur! That's what these feel like to me, some weird set of dinosaur transforming robots that are sold at Big Lots.
-
Something about them just doesn't look right. They look like they belong to some other toy line, not Transformers, if that makes any sense. I also don't think much of Dinobots as a combiner team. I think it's one of the silliest idea that the fandom has ever latched onto.

My copyright senses are tingling.... I hope they got permission to use Optimus Prime's image!
They are in China, where Copyright enforcement isn't that strict on Chinese companies copying non-Chinese products. Anyways, Lego lost a legal case recently protecting their brick design, and technically it doesn't say "Optimus Prime" and it doesn't have an Autobot symbol... so Hasbro can't say much about some red and blue block robot.
Still, if Hasbro and Lego got together and released the "real thing" with this design in the US for about $25-30, I bet it would sell. They should do the fair thing and copy the design from Kazi right back!
I don't know if official Lego Transformers would be as good as these. Most licensed Lego products seem to have a lot pre-made parts, requiring little assembly.

That Jetfire looks a lot better than the Leader class toy.

TFSource exclusive "Snowman" Superion Add-on kit arrived today! Now I just need Superion to go with it :D
So, does anything extra come with the set or is TFSource just lying to get people to buy their add-on kit?
-
Interesting. I may wait and get this one rather than that other trailer. I see a seam down the center of the trailer's roof and a hinge on the side at the bottom of the trailer. So that means it will open up like the G1 trailer. I hope there are more interesting things inside of it.
-
Thank god I'm uninterested just enough to not want this set.
If they got around to making a trailer for Optimus Prime, and then chromed the hell out of it for Nemesis Prime, I would buy that.
-
I've de-hauled today. I returned my voyager movie Megatron. I had him for a couple of weeks but the damned thing is just not good enough.
