Hold the phone...does the Airachnid mold have 2 new 5mm ports on either side just under the rotor fixture? If you got the Arms Micron version and a Hasbro version, you could actually make a passable spider mode using both sets of rotors placed in those ports...

Swerve looks just as I expected him to, so no really issues there.

Not even TakaraTomy can save the Airachnid mold.

They tried though. It already LOOKS better than the Hasbro version, and the micron is nice...but I feel like they should have spent their budget re-engineering her hands. =_=;

Swerve's head is kind of interesting in a cool way, but there's just no ignoring the fact that it's on Breakdown's body. Both Microns I like, but Takara's Airachnid is no improvement over the RiD version. Will probably skip both.

It would be nice if they would take a break from the Prime stuff and show us how Takara plans to repaint the FOC Generations molds. Right now bruticus is hot, and people deserve to know what Takara has coming before wasting money on one of the other 3 versions that are available. It would also be nice to find out if the Shockwave I pre-ordered is going to be different from the newly released Hasbro version.

That's IF Takara does decide to release the FOC generations figures, as they didn't get the WFC video game in Japan and likely aren't getting FOC either. Shockwave is the only 2012 Generations figure they've announced a release of and it's gonna be a Prime toy for them. Their United toyline is only just now getting the PCC molds, so they're pretty behind in their releasing Generations Hasbro molds. Prime must be doing well in Japan if that seems to be their biggest focus right now.

Hm.

No, and no. More for you guys!

Ugh, the stickers make the Takara Airachnid look better. Here's hoping Reprolabels puts out a similar sticker sheet so I don't have to fold for the Takara version -.-

Swerve looks decent, but I won't be buying him. I don't want everyone in my TFP collection to have a repaint of one-another in some form. -.-

That Micron scarab..

Yep, they didn't get the WfC game, but they still did the figures (and plenty of repaints of them as well) so I expect FoC to be no different.

Taking a closer look at the Microns, we now have another completed Super Combo Weapon, and a new Crystal color to deal with. But I can't find their names...
