Official Takara Transformers DOTM Wave 1 Product Images

Am I the only one who thinks it's hilarious that the red name tag thing covers ether the crotches or the chests? It's like a huge censor bar.


Man, I want those model kits, like right now.

Well…………. I guess that solves some mysteries, like the remodel of tomahawk’s head, I expected some repaints to come along, like that possible moon rover or this version of tomahawk, but I mean come’ on first Trust then Arcee, does Hasbro think its funny to make repaints of there worst fig’s



P.S. um.... somebody forgot to post the name of the Tomahawk repaint

Zo My gawd prime has a trailer! but i like the hasbro one with the solar panels,jetpacks, and kick-ass gun. Guess im buying both, cos there's no way im buying fairy princess prime just for his trailer

that is not a repaint of Skyhammer that is a repaint of Tomahawk.

Thanks for clarifying that.

what's so surprising? the reason the trans-scanning figures sucked was because they "transformed".. these figures just have robot modes.

i'm curious as to how tall they're going to be. they look beautiful.

It's surprising because they stunk as toys and flopped as product. These new ones look much nicer.

Wow...Prime looks good! I might have to get both versions.
Arcee...wtf...she looks more like what Elita-1 is supposed to look like. Might get it anyway if Hasbro releases it. (Remeber how Elita-1 was supposed to be PURPLE, not silver, black, and pink, Hasbro?)
Vortex...eh...I don't know...the Tomahawk mold doesn't look all that great to begin with.
Air Raid...I already have Breakaway and Thrust. Do I really need another one?

The models look kind of neat...but they can't possibly be worth the giant price tag they'll have over here.

So instead of repainting or moding one of the actual movie Arcee figure they take chromia (that both versions of the mold are still sitting on shelves) keep it the same way it was in ROTF wave1 just with a knife and call it arcee? Tarkaras getting just as bad as hasbro, i really hope they dont do that here in the US cause not only is that figure horrible out of bike mode but its the worst repaint ever. I really like the prime model kit, i miss action figure model kits.

The Optimus Prime Model Kit is a MUST HAVE for me, same thing goes for the Takara verson of Ultimate Optimus \(^_^)/

I don't mind if they call it Arcee, as long as Hasbro gets the purple color-scheme right this time. That way I can use DOTM Arcee as ROTF Elita-1, instead of having to import the expensive Takara Elita-1.
