Based on the silhouette in the image, the Vehicon Jet appears to be... a Bumblebee repaint!

And Megatron looks to be a redeco of Optimus Prime. Your point?

He really doesn't have one. Everyone knows what a placeholder is. He's doing this "just because".

I'd be more upset with Robotkingdom's inability to get their orders right. Who cares about a placeholder? When you don't get your stuff, that's the big thing. An image is the least of everyone's worries.

I just hope the Arms Micron Megs paint scheme is better than the powerizers, which really was bland.

Sorry, Arms Micron universally have worse paint apps than the Hasbro versions, they get stickers instead.

I prefer BBTS.

Also, at least BBTS just puts the Prime logo if they don't have the actual image instead of confusing people!

And incomplete ones, at that. Ratchet's one of the worst examples. His inner leg is supposed to have red, which the US version does. The Japanese one does not. (It's odd. TakaraTomy is notorious for being sticklers on those details. You'd think they'd bend over backward to make sure a figure such as Ratchet blew our's out of the water, ya know?)

That's true, however, to be fair...BBTS has put up placeholder images of the incorrect silhouettes before. Especially with DOTM. I had a horrible time figuring out which number went with which Deluxe. Because of that, it was almost last minute before I got my preorders for Soundwave and Que in.

People must've complained. RK won't cave to the pressure. Believe me, they're rather difficult to deal with.

well since megatron doesnt really have that much detail on him to begin with, im curious as to what theyre going to do. also, i wonder if theyre gonna leave that brushed metal texture on him or not

[Fires_Of_Inferno]

I've been mostly adamant about not buying non-show characters so far. After IDW's take on G1 Swerve, this may change.

I know of an IDW comic for Prime. Does Swerve make an appearance in it? Hot Shot?
