Does no one else remember that Ark Unicron is supposed to be a voyager, and this is just what reusing as his pic?

He may come with something additional to make the price match.

Just got a good look at that back kibble on Axalon. Decided to pass. Love the Sharkticon mode and the new paint scheme, but bot mode could have been better.

Will be getting Hot Rod, though. I like his design a lot better than MP-9, and while pretty much out of scale with MP-10, he still look good enough around the other deluxe figs. BTW, this will be my first ever Hot Rod fig.

As for MP-11, I'm not sure he's different enough for me to buy him. I already have the first version of MP Screamer [Takara, G1 colors]. The hip kibble's gone, and the face looks different, but he's more of a retool than a remold. Not sure if I like the coronation kit enough to buy this. In any case, the kip kibble doesn't bother me that much--in fact, I don't really have a problem with it.

I dunno, I'll have to see how much it'll cost before making my mind. One thing for sure, though; I'll definitely be buying Thundercracker and Skywarp if they do get made in the future. Actually, it'd be pretty cool if I had these two with V1 Starscream. The hip kibble and slight differences helps to set him apart as commander of the Seekers...with hip kibble that the designer said were meant to look like Samurai swords (???)

What is up with Takara making a black repaint of Windcharger? There is only one obvious choice for a repaint - Tailgate.

It's meant to be G1 Wipe-Out.

Well, Axalon was the name of the Maximals ship and a one of the Omega ships from Animated. It only makes sense that this is an Autobot.

That's my point. Seeing a maximal symbol would have rocked on that figure.

But maybe it's meant to homage the Axalon from Armada, which was an Autobotship, however, the colours don't really match up.

I'm interested in the Afro-American Windcharger and the Unicron seeing as I still don't have a version of that mold. Maybe even the Megatrons.

Was getting rid of the hip kibble really worth losing ankle articulation on MP Starscream? A MP figure without ankle articulation is a fail in my book.

Can't get excited about any of the new United. Screamer will be fun to get.
