We can't even tell what these are. The "Prime" in their names is vague and ambiguous at best; especially with them being some kind of "Prime Mode", as they say.
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

To give a decent guess, maybe these are the 2-pack Power Core Combiners (re: Target "Masters"). Probably will be opaque like the giveaway figures they've been producing lately.

Looking at the solicitation for Artfire, maybe these figures will also have two mini-cons per figure?


And you hit the nail right on the head without even realising it. #-o

Combat Master is PCC Bombshock with Combaticons and Jet Master is PCC Skyburst with Aerialbots, with "Prime Mode" referring to their combined forms! Roller and Chopper could be any of the three Wave 1 2-packs: Huffer, Smolder or Searchlight.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for Arms Microns, especially Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Not when this is United and no Prime. JelZe seems to have figured it out as being the PCC figures.

It was necr0blivion's guess that lead me to that conclusion, so I can't take all the credit :) If it's true, I hope we:

1) See some new repaints
2) Every Drone Team gets released. I want my Dinobots!

If thats the case United is an odd banner for these, no?

I had always interpreted it as a G1-collector themed series on TT's part. Unless they're going to shoehorn it into G1 in the vein of Henkei Hotshot.

Well deduced JelZe.... :APPLAUSE:

I guess you're more in the know then I am, but I took Prime to be chracter names in this case. Especially since the only listed Prime toys in Japan are Micron Arms, and FE.

I hope to goodness these are identical to the American release. Tracking down the Prime microns is a burden enough without having these come out simultaneously accompanied by new paint apps and microns.

That sounds pretty convincing actually.

It might also be FOC stuff, but the PCC stuff sounds more convincing.
