New Million Publishing Exclusive Artfire Images

Posted by El Duque Jun 22, 2012 at 8:13am CDT 26,265 views
Million Publishing has posted some new images of their upcoming exclusive Artfire with Targetmasters Nightstick and Sparks. We recently learned that Takara will also be releasing a wide distribution version of Artfire (UN-32), which will feature an alternate deco and only come with one of the Targetmasters. Million Publishing images mirrored below.

May have to renew my pre-order for this. Looks pretty nice.

See if you can find the mistransformation ;)

And I still don't see how Nightstick and Sparks connect to the crane boom. Retooling?

How can a splash of white paint and a brighter red make this toy so much more tempting?! :-(

That second image is pretty much useless. I wonder why they even thought it was good enough to use as a promo image?

I wondered that myself, but it was there so I figured I might as well share it.

I wonder if it's a coincidence that this comes out so close after the announcement of UN-32 Artfire?

Either way I'm excited and cannot wait to own this.

The best I can figure is it's supposed to be some sort of action shot, maybe a laser blast or something. Whatever they were going for I don't think it worked out the way they hoped.

This is what Artfire would look like... IF HE WAS FIGHTING THE SUN!!!!

Still mulling over cancelling my preorder.

What are the odds the regular release will use only the Inferno parts?

So Million Publishing is bad at transforming their own exclusives and taking pictures of them. I'm starting to think of may going with the United version. I've got an extra Firebolt, so if he comes Nightstick and still has the ladder and everything just slightly different paint scheme, that'll be fine with me.

Probably MP heard the release of UN Artfire and got out some pics to get their customers back. :lol:

But really, why did Takara decide to do United Artfire... of all the other characters/ repaints. Especially since MP announced their version earlier this year.

Apparently I preferred the darker colours the original mock-up had, but I was never planning on paying that much for it, so I'm taking the United route anyways.

Artfire looks really really good. I don't know how the United one will turn out but I highly doubt I cancel my preorder for the MP one.

Is there any chance that the name United Artfire could be a mistake? Asia Hasbro has Hotspot coming out and wondered if that is what "United Artfire" is referring to.

The mass retail one has a Japanese designation number, UN-32.

I'm not sure if anyone has pieced it together yet, but united Artfire means more United Figures! Still gonna get the million version though.

Thing is, we already know a fe of the differences, the paint is apparently different and it only comes with one of the two Targetmasters.

does either one of them have a fancy fireman's hat?

Nice. I'm definitely holding onto my preorder. I think the mis transformations are intentional to show off some of the paint apps. Its transformed fine in the first pic from what I can tell.
