Overall with the exception of Blackout I'm really not impressed with the Japanese Animated stuff. Of course, if that Wingblade Optimus has firing missiles and the Hasbro one doesn't we may be singing a different tune...

Man that Rodimus Minor is smoking hot. Those colors look way better than the orange y one of the Hasbro release. Dang it why did I have to be short this month?! :sad:

It's worth nothing that Hasbro's version, if released, will use the Deluxe mold instead of the Voyager. The backpack accommodates both.

Of the list, I'm amazed the Target exclusive Shockwave and Sunstorm are general retail in Japan. I must get those... or find a nice guy who's willing to sell off the Hasbro versions.

Surprisingly enough those are still hanging around my area. It's no wonder at $40 though

Now I just need to find someone who will help me get a hold of that sweet sweet Takara Rodimus lol!

It's nice that Takara is making the harder to find figures more accessible

[Edit] By the way, are there any pictures of that bumblebee without his scuba thing? I wonder if the mold is nice on its own?

Well I guess that answers that, not much to look at on his own. Ty for the pics.

I haven't played for the past week or so, too busy working on my custom mods and junk. But if I was playing I would. They need more DLC though, I'm getting bored atm :-(
