Tokyo Toy Show Images: Takara United EX Series

I like the nice deco on the dinos. Probably not enough to buy them again though. At their core, Grimstone is simply not good. I didn't really care for the limb modes either. The Constructicons look pretty nice though. I might double dip on those. They were the only PCC five pack I got that I really enjoyed.

I do like these. The uniformed colours are a big improvement. But they're still PCCs so nope!

I didn't buy them when they were in stores soI sure as hell ain't importing them!

But it wouldn't be Classics Devastator. That already exists

It's kinda cool that Hasbro released the Constructicon set in ROTF movie style colors and Takara releases the G1 inspired theme. Sucks for those of us who like the toy and really want those G1 colors, or any of the repaints.

The minicons look much better painted than they did in translucent colors. The originals just looked like robot-shaped candy.

I forgot about that thing. It came out before I got back into collecting. Was that a homage repaint or did they really mold that to be Devastator ???

Hasbro, why couldn't you do your Constructicons like that? I would have bought them ASAP, and not have to hunt down an Energon Constructicon Maximus/Wal*Mart Classics Devastator to serve as my Classics Constructicons. Why Hasbro?!
