Takara Tomy Transformers Prime Arms Micron Thundercracker and Orion Pax Image

Weapon: Gattling Gun
The CyberGundam blog has posted a small image from Figure King 176 of Takara Tomy's upcoming Transformers Prime Arms Micron Thundercracker and Orion Pax. Both are First Edition repaints, Thundercracker being a redeco of First Edition Starscream and Orion Pax a reuse of First Edition Deluxe Optimus Prime, which will hopefully feature Decepticon faction symbols.

We've mirrored the image below.

Orion Pax is... a red and blue repaint of OP? Am I missing something?

He's the first release of the Deluxe Prime mold in Japan. In the show, Optimus had temporary memory loss, called himself Orion Pax as a result, and was entranced by Megatron. Hence the possibility of a :CON: on his shoulder which did appear in the show.
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 any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

I assume that these will be available through BBTS or one of the other online stores. I must have that Thundercracker. Any ideas on what the cost shipped to the US might be, those of you who have bought this sort of thing before? Thx.

Ah, I see. I didn't realize it was the Deluxe mold. And I'm not real familiar with all the fiction. Now it makes sense.

Guess this is how Japan's getting the Deluxe FE mold, and it's a good idea.
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

Oh thank god he's the Deluxe one.

Now I have Skywarp AND Thundercracker to import. Although, I'm going to have to get them some missiles for their arms.
