That's exactly what I'm saying. They had to use two molds a dozen times to get Wheeljack and Skyfire would take more than that. Like, dozens more. Like, MP Bumblebee coming out in all his repaints, including the Mexican and Brazilian recolors, twice over and them all being smash hits. Such a large and unique build with a completely unused and untested design would just be hell for Takara to budget out. And even then, they run the risk of not getting the support from the fans who want Jetfire over Skyfire. It's just not worth it to them.
It can be done if HasTak uses remolded parts on the MP TF toy line. If HasTak did a MP Jetfire,It could be turned into Jhiaxus,Dreadwing or Thunderwing. All thats needed is newer heads,newer colors & resculpted parts. HasTak can even do a Black repaint of MP Skyfire as Takara did one with the 1.0 mold.
As far as MP Shockwave is concerned. It can have Two toy colors. The Cartoon Dark grey colors. Then the Toy,comic purple colors. With newer heads & reculpted parts,It can be turned into Straxus & Bludgeon.

As far as the subject matter or aesthetics of the figures themselves, thats up for debate. But the bottom line is i dont have a history of broken figures from IT. But i do with KFC.

This is what youtube TF toy reviews videos are for. Watch a video before you buy. Then afterwards decide if you still want to buy or not.This is what I & some others plan to do with this toy.
chimungmung's site says they are getting the KFC UM toy in stock on April 10th. Their are bound to be a few buyers doing Youtube toy review videos on this toy.Rated X wrote: Go ahead, spend almost $200 on your oversized out of scale ultra magnus.

This reads like you are attempting to antagonize on those who love this toy & are buying it.

I'm not picking a side or anything, this is just out of curiosity. If KFC's stuff is so bad, why do you own every mold they put out so far? I would think after probably the 3rd broken product at the most it would make sense to stop buying their stuff.

I would highly advise everyone to let Tsutsukakushi take one for the team and report back here with a review on it's quality before committing to buying.

Until Mugan scope came out KFC was just making cassettes. Theyre not that expensive so even if the quality is crap, the cassettes are still worth buying just to have the obscure characters on my shelf. But Mugan Scope failed as far as quality in my book. Not a good start for their first non cassette figure. And definitely not encouraging to make me want to spend $200 for anything bearing the KFC name.
List of problems:
Evil Rhinohorn - came missing his horn (exchanged by BBTS)
Justice Ironpaw/Nightstalker - Cannons on blasters are extremely hard to get out. I had to pry them out with a screwdriver. The problem was fixed on Retro Ironpaw.
Birdbomber/SG Birdbomber - Guns wont fit on birds back unless you are willing to force them. I cut my finger open trying and gave up.
Flaptrap - floppy left wing (exchanged by BBTS)
Jetdancer - floppy left wing (exchanged by BBTS)
Slamtank - cracked screw that holds chrome cannon on turret. Didn't notice this until I tried to combine him with my new Jetdancer for the first time (waiting for resolution from BBTS)
Mugan Scope - Ball joint that holds scope to figures back cracked off. Right fist ball joint is loose and flops when holding rifle. Neck flip is scary tight, cant put head inside chest to transform. (exchanged by BBTS)
Mugan Scope (exchange) - Right fist ball joint is loose again, must be mold issue. Neck flip is still scary tight. Tried to flip it in and it misaligned like if one hinge snapped. (waiting for resolution from BBTS)

When the review starts with a BBTS or TFsource caption, you know you are about to watch a glorified commercial. I'm just giving you honest facts from my experiences with KFC quality control issues. You can take it and roll with it, or you could go spend $200 and play a game of Russian roulette with KFC. Spin the barrel, buddy.

I wouldn't count on this. MP-20 Wheeljack is due in August, and MP-21 Bumblebee is due in November. I doubt we get MP-22 Ultra Magnus before December 2014. Actually, early 2015 is more likely. That August date is just what retailers put up when rumors were flying around; it's not official. Once we get the official announcement with prototype images, we'll get a more realistic date.

Ah, I see, my mistake. I thought Wheeljack was due way sooner than that (like June or something). You're probably right.
Still, patience is a virtue, particularly when it comes to dropping $200~$300 or not.
