But we already saw them.

Oh, you mean these guys?

I'll get the Smokescreen... and that might be the ONLY Beast Hunters toy I get.

Don't bother. No middle man i know ships tabao orders to the us. Shipping to singapore alone is actually rather costly. If you somehow mannage to get this into the us, i assue you it would take over 2 months and cost around $50usd for both. I'll just wait.

I actually found a site that specializes in TaoBao and emailed them. I'll keep everyone a tit of what happens.

Might as well add me to that there black list: I was about to say the same thing, but relented since they beat me to the punch.

The new sculpt for Smokescreen genuinely suprised me. I wasnt expecting that at all. Hasbro, you now have my attention.

new mold for smokescreen? if that armor comes off, i'm certainly getting him

The more I look at it and the way the "Shadow Quill Armor" is billed on the cardback I'm almost certain it's removable. Guess we'll find out next month a Toy Fair.

I think Smokescreen is pretty nice. Can't wait to get him and the Predacons.

Interested in Smokescreen, I had planned on getting the AM version, still might invest in that as a blank canvas for Reprolabels.

Do you know what the best part of this news is?

The best part is that this is evidence that we might actually get a new mold for Shockwave in Beast Hunters (especially since e seems to have a more important role now). And while a Voyager would be nice, I wouldn't hold my breath with Hasbro's recent track record.

And anyone know if Takara is going to continue the Arms Micron line with Beast Hunter figures?

WOW Smokescreen looks awesome! and the fake chest doesnt bug me im happy that at least the made a new mold and not repainted knock out or remolded a bumblebee. and the armor has to be removable it looks like it comes off and you just clip it in to the front of the car

This is evidence that we might get Smokescreen? We are getting these two. Why is there any doubt?

He said Shockwave, Pryme.

I know. You posted before my edit.

Well, for Hardshell's case, we did get a "Cyberverse Commander Hardshell" in some news before, so things are hopeful for him as well.

I've got a hunch that Smokescreen's base figure was designed for RID, but when the line stopped they threw him in this to not waste the mould, which means I think its fairly likely that we will see more of these RID style (non spiky) figures with armour as an accessory, hopefully Shockwave, Ironhide, maybe Frenzy and Gears... And maybe, just maybe... Breakdown.
With the deluxe Starscream confirmed, I suppose that clears up the 'whos 005?' mystery, but also backs up whoever it was who said deluxe Dreadwing and Twinstrike was it? Are coming in wave three. However, the fact that Hasbro seem to have shunted Bulkhead and Starscream, and maybe Dreadwing down to deluxe scale means that the voyager slots are left empty im predicting Megatron and Grimlock wave 2, and possibly BH Magnus seeing as he's getting a weaponiser. Sadly I think Hardshell will be deluxe scale if he ever gets a figure... :/

What does Shockwave even turn into in the cartoon?

He's like Megatron in that he doesn't appear to have any vehicle mode kibble on him, but its most likely some sort of cybertronian jet or tank. He's yet to Transform on the show so if he gets a figure, Hasbro may just make one up for him like they did with DOTM Shockwave

Or he might have an as yet unseen alternate mode CGI model for his future appearances, like Wheeljack, which Hasbro will pull from if/when they make his toy.

Deluxe Dreadwing and Cyberverse Commander Hun-Gurr.

Thanks It'll be interesting to see how many of these Predacons show up in the show, and how HasTak will explain the differing Predacon symbols I believe Predaking is the only confirmed in-show Predacon at this point, but I'm sure there'll be more. However, I highly doubt that any of the regular characters will have upgrades like these. Optimus will probably get a redesign as he seemed to get pretty f*cked over at the end of last season, and im sure Megatron and possibly Starscream will attempt to harness some of the Predacon's power, but everyone else will probably stay pretty much the same

NovaSentinel wrote:and how HasTak will explain the differing Predacon symbols

What? All of the Prime Predacons have the same Predacon symbol.
