All these new Takara toys are scheduled to be released on March 2010.

[Blurrz]

We've received official images from Takara headquarters, which are similar to the pictures that we first saw by slideshow at San Diego Comic Con 2009. Among the notables are Human Alliance Barricade with Frenzy, and Voyager Mindwipe, of which, his friend Scout Skystalker can attach to him. There's a Movie-fied version of Deluxe Lockdown, Scout size of Cybertron Scattorshot, and the rest is capped off by Deluxe Brawn and a Deluxe version of Movie Ratchet.

Why is there a double post; like 2 people posting the same stuffs?

Anyway just getting HA barricade from this wave, the only question is whether I am getting the takara or hasbro one.

[Blurrz]

He posts it, I make it look nicer.

On a serious note,

DUDE I CANT WAIT FOR THISSSSSSSSSS

Both doing it at the same time, without knowing each other news the same thing.....

[First-Aid]

Oh

my

Primus...


There is not a bad figure in the entire group. That movie-ized version of Lockdown is AWESOME! PLEASE PLEASE tell me these are going to be released in the US...I still don't have a full time job and as such have no money whatsoever...can't afford more than 2 or 3 imports a year.

[Hard Hacker]

Yes, yes, a thousand times YES.

[Starscream6]

HOLY **** THAT LOCKDOWN IS SICK!!!!!! mindwipe looks alot like cybertron soundwave in alt mode! so getting both of those!

brawn seems to have a RID/car robots feel to him w/ those legs

[DecepticonKing86]

Definitely want to get Barricade!!! Scattershot and Brawn look awesome as well.

[frogbat]

kudos to hasbro's marketing peeps on making these look soo cool - pity they mostly never turn out to be so nice in person - i'm wondering if they're hand painted before being photographed or if it's all done in pshop...

barricade looks nice - this human alliance concept kinda reminds me of the original toys' origins where the pre tf japanese releases had little pilots it's kinda like they've come full circle

[Oilspill]

Lockdown is almost cool enough to buy. Vehicle mode looks great but it loses me on the bot mode, but then, I'm not a movie-line kinda guy. I'm happy for everyone who can dig it though. Mindwipe looks pretty cool too.

[Hip-Hoptimus Rime]

OMG! ALL WIN except for Dlx Ratchet- where's the need?

Movie Lockdown is amazing. EDIT- his right arm appears ot be transformed wrong, doesn't seem to be up all the way like the left one. Those little Scouts look great. The new jets, awesome. HA Barricade looks great, man I hope they make HA Ironhide w/ Lennox. Hell, they could include Simmons' mom and I'll still buy it.

[GuyIncognito]

Holy crap! Aside from HA Barricade those are ALL must-buys for me.

Deluxe Ratchet seems kind of pointless at first, but I think it might look better in movie displays because the scale is closer to the others. I think Voyager Ratchet is too big to display next to the Deluxe cars.

Out of all of them, though, I think Brawn might be my favorite. His alt mode is cool, but his bot mode is one of the most bad-ass bot modes I've ever seen. He'll look awesome next to "Samurai" Bludgeon.

[Prowl1529]

They are all very good. But whit short of money and space i will only get Human Alliance Barricade witch is awesome, i can't wait to see Human Alliance Mudflap and probably others in this line. Please Human Alliance Ironhide in scale whit the others

[autobot-jolt]

YES YES YES! I've been waiting forever (just like the rest of you) for these figures! I never got the chance to get movie 1 Ratchet, and I laid off the second one, and then this showed up! RotF is lookin' good!

[Wheeljack144]

These look great. Cant wait to see Mindwipe and Brawn in more realistic detail.

[Nemesis Rodimus]

Oh.

Wow.

Don't have Movie Ratchet yet - that's the one! Scattorshot will be mine, certainly! Not sure about Mindwipe, Skystalker, ect., I like them, but I don't think my wallet's that big.

So, for official movie Autobots, here's who I'll try to be getting or already have:

Leader Optimus (don't have yet, hope to get for Christmas)
Recon Ironhide (don't have yet)
Deluxe Ratchet (don't have yet)
AllSpark Power Jazz (have)
Deluxe NEST Bumblebee or Cannon Bumblebee with battle mask (don't have yet)
Deluxe Sideswipe (have)
Ice Cream Twins (have)
Leader Jetfire (don't have yet)

For unofficial:

Breakaway (have)
Rollbar (have)
Dune Runner (have)
Night Beat (have)
Scattorshot (don't have yet)
Swerve (don't have yet)
Wideload (don't have yet)
Brawn (possibility, don't have yet)

There's my list of Autobots, official and unoffial, that I will or might get.

[SoundStang]

Sweet! I'm going to have to make room for some of these!

[joevill]

Wow these all look really great! Mindwipe is my favorite out of the bunch!

[Razorclaw0000]

All of them look fantastic. I really want to see the combined Skystalker and Mindwipe. I love that Barricade actually has the weed whacker of doom.

[karellan]

I'm actually a bit disappointed in Barricade. His right arm is all gimpy because it's folded up to hold Frenzy. I'm wondering what it looks like normally (if it even HAS a normal mode).

[Doubledealer93]

I WANT THEM ALL! except for ratchet and lockdown. i might get ratchet to make the ratchet i have now more movie accurate.

[Firebird]

Well there goes my money

I'll probably get them all aside from for Scattorshot and Brawn. I wonder if Mindwipe would fit in with my Classics?

[GuyIncognito]

Explain?

[DevastaTTor]

Brawn and Mindwipe are actually very cool. Maybe I need a small shelf for a few of these secondary movie figures. I like them more than the actual characters.
