Noticed that the Season Three Transformers new cast seemed to be drawn bigger than the seasons One and Two Transformers. Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory, Zone and Battle stars seemed to continue this growth spurt trend.

Yeah it's a little strange, but there you have it. Sometimes I have these memories of the characters being different sizes and it takes awhile to reconcile seeing pictures of new toys next to others where they don't conform to my memory. That's why there's the scale chart.

But that's going to be interesting as Chromedome's alt mode will likely scale with MP Hot Rod, and not the rest of the cars...

This is looking really skip-able for me really quickly.

Well goddamn! This actually looks f**kin awesome!

Looks great, Price will be a deciding factor whether I buy this or not.

its really impressive. but do i does my MP collection have to extend as far as headmasters? i never imagined it going past season 3 characters....

Those pictures are fantastic. I woke up this morning and heard my future funds weep...

Hell yeah I'm picking this guy up!

i forgot to mention.... that car give anyone else a BTTF delorian vibe?

I think Chromedome was suppose to be based off the delorean from BTTF. In fact, his G1 tech specs say his top speed is 88 mph

Spent several thousand years cruching numbers at Cybertron's Insitute for Higher Programming before a Decepticon attack reduced it to a pile of smoking microchips. Binary-bonded to Stylor, an egotistical Nebulan more concerned with personal appearance than warfare. In car mode, maximum speed: 478 mph. Range: 630 miles. Hood-mounted infra-red range finder automatically targets roof-mounted dual lasers.

Wait... I could have sworn I read that somewhere before... Who am I thinking of then?

Well I'm sold.


I just need to see some preorders now, so get in gear Maketoys.

He looks fantastic!



Still waiting on that preorder.

He looks impressive. I'll be watching.

he does look good but I have to say I love codes transformation and scaling with the other function x figures and my masterpieces to replace him with this guy.

While I like bigger toys. Think RM-O1 Cupola might be a few toy classes too big.

While I think Deluxe class is too small, Since his 1987 toy was big. I'd be the most Okay with buying a HasTak or 3rd party Chromedome toy that is Voyager class.

Yes, I'm aware Maketoys is trying to scale Cuploa to his Japanese Headmaster cartoon scale. and next to MP-10's Japanese Heamasters cartoon scale.

Still interested to see how this Cuploa toy turns out. Regardless if I don't buy it. Think the Engineering, Sculpt and articulation seem really high on this toy.

Wondering what the price will be for this. Since Maketoys charge lower prices for their toys compared to some competitors. Guessing around $135 or less.

On a Cupola Leader class MP-10 sized toy. Wondering how big the headmaster robot will be.
will it be in scale with other headmasters robots?





Getting a strong, Back to the future, delorean car vibe. From Chromedome's car design.

I would SO buy a BTTF inspired repaint of him.

Why do I keep pronouncing his name as Crapola? =X

That's around the price I'm hoping for.

When I first read the Cupola name. It sounded like a name the Nintendo Super Mario brothers game would use for their villains. Remember the big villains name was called, King Koopa.

Wondering if that, Cupola, Name is a Italian or Spanish name.
