| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830252) Posted by TCJJ on November 7th, 2008 @ 6:15pm CST That actually looks way better and really cool! I am so getting this figure! | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830254) Posted by Cheetron on November 7th, 2008 @ 6:18pm CST I'll admit, it looks a million times better in color. But unless I find a girlfriend who likes MM, I won't be getting one. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830260) Posted by Archanubis on November 7th, 2008 @ 6:25pm CST Still looks kinda silly. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830261) Posted by Revimus Leo on November 7th, 2008 @ 6:26pm CST I was unsure of how this would turn out, actually, but after seeing this colored pic, I'm practically sold on this. Now if we had a Donald Duck, I'd be sold on it regardless. But hey, gotta start with the Mouse who started it all. Here's hoping Donald is Next, or if not, then Big Bad Pete as Megatron. Makes sense to me, Pete is Mickey's adversary most often, and recognized as a leader of villains of a sort. His role in Kingdom Hearts 2 excluded. But honestly, next one done should be Megatron's counterpart. Be he Donald, or Pete. In fact, personality wise, I'm pretty sure Pete is a perfect match for Megs. If not, Starscream for sure, considering how incompetent and bumbling Pete is as well. We shall see soon enough. Hopefully we don't have to wait as long for the next one as we often have to for a new Masterpiece Figure. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830266) Posted by Rocketeer on November 7th, 2008 @ 6:30pm CST Mickeymus Prime looks much better with color. But it's still blasphemy. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830274) Posted by grimlock prime123 on November 7th, 2008 @ 6:41pm CST colour makes everything look better i will get this figure | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830282) Posted by Sabrblade on November 7th, 2008 @ 7:01pm CST Huh. This whole time I figured he'd be in Mickey's colors (black ears/head/torso/arms/legs, white hands, red pants, yellow feet). | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830300) Posted by GetterDragun on November 7th, 2008 @ 7:22pm CST
That's going to be the e-hobby version! I'm definitely getting this! It's the first crossover that doesn't look like shit! | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830301) Posted by Mykltron on November 7th, 2008 @ 7:24pm CST Amazing. I hate this figure even more. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830335) Posted by cheeser82 on November 7th, 2008 @ 8:41pm CST With those colors, you'd think the makers support names like 'Mouseimus Prime'. The black and white one is probably for those who want a G1 Mickey feel with the figure. But all jokes aside, I'm liking the figure more in color. If I ever saw one in stores, I may pick it up. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830343) Posted by Rocketeer on November 7th, 2008 @ 9:15pm CST Just noticed something: The bot-mode cab is not the same as the alt-mode cab. Check out the windshield and the bumpers. That means that the truck's cab and bumper are tucked away somewhere in bot mode. I'll bet Mickey has one heck of a backpack. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830350) Posted by Sabrblade on November 7th, 2008 @ 9:26pm CST
I think that's the black and white version. No red or yellow. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830359) Posted by hellsing_mongrel on November 7th, 2008 @ 9:41pm CST ...I still think this makes baby Jesus cry... seriously...WHY IN THE HECK does Disney have to invade EVERYTHING????? | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830361) Posted by Cryo Prime on November 7th, 2008 @ 9:46pm CST ugh.....sorry i just threw up a little......WHY | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830365) Posted by Stormrider on November 7th, 2008 @ 9:53pm CST
I believe Disney has an in house policy that they offer merchandise for everything. Example - Mickey mouse furniture, clothes, collectables, food, videos, music, etc. Hello Kitty has the same policy. A lot of the idea for the merchandise comes from visitors. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830366) Posted by El Duque on November 7th, 2008 @ 9:53pm CST I can see why a lot of you guys don't like this, but look at this way; Mickey Mouse is one of the most recognized characters in the world and he has now been transformer-ized. I just take it as a sign of TF's growing popularity, which in turn benefits us fans. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830374) Posted by Cryo Prime on November 7th, 2008 @ 10:06pm CST
WOW you make so much sense and i completely agree | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830382) Posted by El Duque on November 7th, 2008 @ 10:11pm CST
Me neither, but I will admit it looks better than I though it would. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830418) Posted by D-340 on November 7th, 2008 @ 11:09pm CST Nope, still crap. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830424) Posted by hellsing_mongrel on November 7th, 2008 @ 11:21pm CST
But...does that mean they have to take over everything that is actually BRANDED??? This was perhaps one of the last places left unMickied...I shall mourn the passing of one of our last un-Disney-stolen franchises... I dunno...part of me is just angry because it seems to me like Disney is trying to force themselves on EVERYTHING! It makes me sad... | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830428) Posted by DavidT on November 7th, 2008 @ 11:38pm CST . Mousimus Prime has longer smokestacks than Optimus . | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830440) Posted by First-Aid on November 8th, 2008 @ 12:24am CST That is...surprisingly not that bad. I'm sure kids everywhere will love it. I'm not sure how I would liek it, but it's really not that bad. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830455) Posted by Supreme Convoy on November 8th, 2008 @ 1:39am CST I don't care how crazy this is, I'm buying it! | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830467) Posted by Autobot032 on November 8th, 2008 @ 2:53am CST Still crap. Still not buying. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830477) Posted by Stormrider on November 8th, 2008 @ 3:47am CST
I can understand that you are feeling that things are becoming too commercialized, but offering a Mickey Mouse Transformer is not forcing anything onto anyone. It's no different than the Nike crossovers, Marvel crossovers, iPod crossovers, and Star Wars crossovers. It's going to be a limited thing. No one is forcing you to buy it. In fact, you will probably never see it other than pictures. It is only being sold in Japan and through online retailers; and it was reported today that the number being produced will be limited. Shipments will be shorthanded. Also understand that TakaraTomy is offering these crossovers in order to gain money from a different market (adults). Japan is suffering from a childess age. Less kids are being born each year. Also, video games are eating into toy maker profits. TakaraTomy announced two years ago that they are marketing Transformers to adults. The crossovers is one more way that they filling that gap. Mickey Mouse is a huge icon in Japan, and not just for little kids. Girls and guys from 4 - 45 years old are into Mickey and Minnie. This particular toy will sell like hot cakes in Japan, mark my words. As someone else mentioned - the fact that this toy crosses two gendres means that Transformers is becoming more popular. Popularity means more money, which means more toys that you want. Many of us won't bother buying this, but realize that this crossover is a good thing for us Transformers fans. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830488) Posted by Nickolai on November 8th, 2008 @ 5:14am CST So this is Leader class, I take it? Based on shipping weight and SRP, though I haven't seen confirmation of its size anywhere. Shame, if it was a Deluxe or maybe even Voyager I might've gotten it, but not paying Leader price for a novelty item. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830489) Posted by Tekka on November 8th, 2008 @ 5:18am CST
I would have thought all Transformers were novelty items. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830503) Posted by Nickolai on November 8th, 2008 @ 6:55am CST
Touche. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830541) Posted by Jaw Crusher on November 8th, 2008 @ 8:49am CST Whew! For a moment there, I was also afraid he'd be decoed like Mickey Mouse instead of Optimus Prime. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830739) Posted by Wheeljack35 on November 8th, 2008 @ 3:02pm CST I have a freind who works at Disney World and will hook me up with his discount for it | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830746) Posted by Megatron Wolf on November 8th, 2008 @ 3:17pm CST Hasbro has officially sold out. I fear for what could be next. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830753) Posted by Sky Glory of Iacon on November 8th, 2008 @ 3:24pm CST It doesn't look bad it's kinda cute. This is kinda nice for us girls to get something for a change. While I'm not looking for a make me pretty Starscream, or a Date night Arcee or two pack Elita One with Optimus Prime wedding set. still looks great. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830772) Posted by Jaw Crusher on November 8th, 2008 @ 3:50pm CST
You're about four or five crossovers behind to be saying that now. Wait, isn't Universal Studios building a TF ride? Hey, there's yer next exclusive crossover right there! Transforming KITTs, DeLoreans, T-Rexes and sharks for everybody!!! | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830850) Posted by King Slick on November 8th, 2008 @ 6:50pm CST
Just hope Walt Disney don't rise up from the dead. May mercy save us all! | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (830897) Posted by Delicon on November 8th, 2008 @ 8:05pm CST Somethinmg tells me I'll end up buying this for my wife at Botcon. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (831048) Posted by barricade2218 on November 9th, 2008 @ 8:06am CST I went ahead and ordered it even though I'm not a huge Disney fan, I have a feeling it will be scarce like the Nike shoes were. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (831120) Posted by bossbot on November 9th, 2008 @ 11:37am CST this is quite nice, thing i figured out the transformation... to bad the cabsection in euhrmm 'mouse' mode isnt the same as the actual truck cab.... has a nice soft almost kiddie look to it.... however living in this godversaken transformers devoid country probably means i'm never gonna see it in stores.... and buying online and having it shipped is gonna cost an arm and a leg so i'm never gonna have to worrie about buying it or not :p | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (832218) Posted by T-Macksimus on November 11th, 2008 @ 12:05pm CST For those of you not liking this figure just look at it this way: Until now the only thing Disney has been pushing down the publics throat is High School Musical and Hannah Montana. Given those options or Disney Crossovers, I say bring on the Crossovers!!! I can't wait to see how they turn Pluto into something like Ravage or Steeljaw and I could totally see Donald getting the Bumblebee treatment. | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (832899) Posted by YRQRM0 on November 12th, 2008 @ 3:36pm CST So where's MegaPete? | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (833528) Posted by Jaw Crusher on November 13th, 2008 @ 6:08pm CST
Eh, personally, I'd prefer MegaDon; his Seeker nephews Huescream (plotting to overthrow his uncle since nobody can understand what the fool says), Deweycracker and Louwarp; and his Uncle ShockScrooge (who believes it's perfectly logical that HE will take over the Duckcepticons since he has all the money). | |
| Re: Color Pictures of Mickey Mouse Transformer (833956) Posted by T-Macksimus on November 14th, 2008 @ 12:39pm CST I just formed a mental picture of MegaDon and the Duckcepticons. I'm going to go lie down for awhile 'cause I think I just hurt myself. The overload from the cross between sheer awsome brilliance and borderline insane hilarity was just too much. | |
