MakeToys have updated their website with new color images of MT-04 Mobine, or half of the previously seen figure that appeared to be a tribute to Dreamwave's The Fallen. Half of the figure is seen here in color interacting with PCC Commanders Heavy Tread and Bombshock.

For reference here are some of the earlier prototype images:

Interesting. I see fists in the last picture so I gather that it also can combine with the commanders for a big robot mode, too. This is more in line with what I'd hoped for for PCC, as opposed to the dinky little misshapen arms and legs. May pick this up if the price is right.

Hmmmmmm not a big fan of these pics, or the Fallen lore........but a fan of this action!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on man?????!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bring on Acoustic Wave and Hegemon!!!!!!!!

As long as both parts combine and look like the prototype we were shown, I'll still paint them black and orange and call it the Fallen.

Interesting direction. So their not-Fallen (I only use it this time because with this color scheme you can honestly say it's not The Fallen) will be a PCC commander?

Hmmmm, not sure if I'm digging the combat-oriented color scheme and the connection (literally and figuratively) to the PCCs. Hope the final combined version of their Fallen figure looks really good (and possibly gets a darker/black repaint) otherwise this is a pass for me.

Looks sweet! But it reminded me that I never did find Heavy Tread. :-(

Leave it to 3rd party to turn a lame toy into an awesome one! I hope Hasbro is taking notes.

Hmm.

Robot mode isn't too bad, I suppose.
PCC integration is lacking.
Color scheme is very, very bland.

I only bought the Dinobot combiner and I doubt this'll work with that one.

The color scheme disappoints me. It doesn't look like either the Titanium Fallen or the Dreamwave's Fallen's color scheme (they were slightly different; you could tell the DW Fallen has purple in him when he was lit up). Since I have (and still dig) Titanium Fallen this just fell down my list of priorities.

But I'll reserve judgement until the full figure is released. With any luck this is just a limited edition color scheme and the one everyone actually wants will be released later.

I can't say I see myself getting this. It's a neat concept and the engineering looks darned good, but I'm just not feeling it right now.

So, they're making a Cubix version of The Fallen?

News Credits: 81 · by **El Duque** » Fri Apr 20, 2012 8:05 am

You can bet on a black and flames repaint.

News Credits: 2 · by **Requiem Prime** » Fri Apr 20, 2012 8:06 am

Looking back on the prototype, I can't tell if the second part is a full PCC commander or just the big robot mode (ala Overlord).

If it's the latter, they're pretty much using PCC to make a partsform-tastic duocon.

...I like this idea even more than I want a Fallen. I hope they do make 2 versions because THIS I would get the repaint. In fact; hope they really go down this road and announce more "partners" to pair with standalone PCC guys and salvage Hasbro's FAIL.

TFC has their WWII set, but despite the points for treating PCC like real gestalts, it's only one set. Pairing well with the tanks aside, something is lost if more than one has the exact same team. This way is not only more outside of the box, but looks much easier to explore and produce a bunch of designs than making sets of triple changers.

I don't know if any of you have CVS pharmacies around your area, but I was able to find a whole slew of the last wave of PCC 2 packs for 9 bucks each. If you consider, some of us are spending 10-13 bucks each for 3rd party target masters, these are a steal for troop building Heavytreads (even more so if you consider the price of Clone Wars figures in ratio to build quality). So check your CVS if looking for Heavytreads. The ones I found weren't in the toy aisle, they were in the aisle closest to the registers (near seasonal).

Yea.

I mean, what's the point here? I don't need PCC integration.

I see it more as a bonus. Like "here's an awesome Fallen figure. And he can work with PCC too, if you like!"

by **GunFire Alpha** » Fri Apr 20, 2012 8:52 am

I'm really excited about these, they're taking the functionality of PCC's and expanding it into upgrade armour, similar to how Armada allowed figures to split apart and combine into upgrades, IE Prime combined with Overload/Ultra magnus and Jetfire. Cool!

News Credits: 34 · by **Dead Metal** » Fri Apr 20, 2012 9:09 am

So The fallen is being splitt up into two sets, coloured sh*t brown, and sold as accessories for PCCs? :BANG_HEAD:

Again, I'll wait for the black repaint.

Honestly, I don't even see the resemblance to The Fallen yet.

Granted, it's not a dead on, striking resemblance, but there are some similarities. Mostly the head.

News Credits: 58 · by **Va'al** » Fri Apr 20, 2012 9:19 am

I'd say the torso and cod-piece too.
You can tell it's that character, in any case, even if it's not the same design, but based upon it.

News Credits: 1 · by **rpetras** » Fri Apr 20, 2012 9:23 am

I'm warming up to this idea.

I kind of like the thought of taking PCCs to their next logical step, of fully armored bots.

It is not too different that Ultra Magnus, where you have a central bot, and he has armor from a separate structure.

I like that they used the PCC ports so you can, if you want, integrate with some stuff you already have.

I kind of hope they make a slew of guys around this concept.

The only real shame is these are coming out now, and not when PCCs were on shelves at clearance prices.

This thing screams The Fallen to me:

I think people are just remember the Titanium Fallen, which was based off a version of Megatron. This thing is a pretty good representation of the real Fallen. Except for the colors, if what we're shown is any indication.
