New Images of Transformers United Cliffjumper and More!

Posted by Blurrz Sep 22, 2010 at 9:00am CDT 51,966 views
Takara's Henkei will continue under the name Transformers United. If you missed out on Henkei Voyager Megatron, or Bumblebee, this line offers you a second chance at them. If you like metallic shine on your figures, then much of the United figures have it too. And to top it all off, our first look at Generations/United Cliffjumper. Courtesy of TFW2005, check out some of the new images below!

Ditto, not a fan of the metallic paint either.

That Classics Megatron re-release looks better without the chrome :)

I know the head will fit, I just wonder if it'll look okay on Classic CJ's body.

the wfc megatron looks so much better, hoping to see what they did to prime.

Is it just me, or does Cliffjumper look...girly?

I already have henkei Megs, so that's a pass, and I don't love the WFC Megs, so I'm import free on this set!

But yeah, Cliffy looks a bit too feminine for some reason.

You sure? *Compares his Henkei Megs with United Megs* Nope, I'm not seeing things. Megatron has not only lost the chrome, but a lot of paint apps as well.

Bumblebee is just perfect: no chrome, no stripes, just plain yellow. Actually makes me glad I missed out on him. The rest I'll just skip and get the Hasbro versions instead. By the by, would the use of the Deluxe mold for Optimus Prime be a sign that the Voyager mold has degraded beyond use?

Megatron's paint looks better this time around but I still wish they had decked him out in silver like the G1 toy. Now that would have been a real improvement.

I quite like the look of Cliffjumper, he's a bit on the thin side but the head looks nice.

I think you may well be right about Optimus, it would certainly explain why Takara Tomy haven't released Ultra Magnus, Nemesis Prime or Sleep mode Prime.

I'm guessing that these are the deluxe OP and BB molds that were found in Wal-Mart's computer system yesterday.

I believe this mean that the Generations G1 Prime and Bumblebee in the wallmart computers will be the same as these.

Also I think the henkei version of Megatron is still the best use of that mold.

What Megs Mould is that? The original Classics Voyager one or the Hasbro "special edition" one?

I've confused myself again.

I said "Voyager". The Deluxe one is a tank, inspired by G2.

WFC Megs is fantastic! Why does it seem to blow away the HASBRO one?

Agreed on United/Henkei Megs. Too many missing paint apps, but still a good option for those who missed out on Henkei. I might pick up United WFC Megs if comparison shots turn out to be highly favorable. The rest I'll probably pass on, although Soundwave looks tempting.

I don't think this means the Classics Voyager mold is unusable, because the Seeker mold is still in use. This may just be a sign that the Prime & Bee listings at Walmart are in fact rereleases of the deluxes.

Cliffjumper looks good, so hopefully his US release turns out to be comparable. I may still pass on him, unless I get a lot of the things on my wish list first.

The re-issue of BB is great news for me. I missed out on the entire line, so BB will be a buy on sight. I'm not too pumped for Prime though. I really like his bot mode. But I wish they had re-issued Voyager Prime instead. IMO that Prime has a much better Alt-Mode and fits in better size-wise.

I like Cliff a lot better than Bee. New Voyager Megs is ok but I got the Henkei, no need to repeat when theres so many other nice things coming. WFC Megs is much nicer than Hasbro's one. In fact, all the WFC toys look improved.

Straxus wasn't a toy I was overly worried about (if they gave me his head in a jar, as an accessory, I'd love it though) so I can't say I notice much difference. Classics BB is pretty nice, still has silver bumpers, but it's G1 enough colours that I could theoretically be tempted to buy the mold again. Classics Deluxe Prime is pretty cool in those colours too, but I have the first version and can't say I'm overly eager to spend more money on it again (I don't hate it though). Drift looks the same to me.
