Usually MMC is actually teasing a product with these April Fool's Day jokes. I wonder what the real product will be.

And if there is a new product, maybe they should focus on finishing the ones they already teased before starting another.

I've been wanting something like this for ages. If it's in the Leader scale,I'll buy it in a heart beat.

About the only thing I dislike about that design is the tiny legs on the gun barrel in gun mode.

This appears to be a Legends or commander scale. If this is bumped up to leader scale,The plastic will be thicker & Bulkier.

I'm hoping this is a mini figure that comes with a bigger leader scale Megatron toy version. Similar to the MMC Mini cyclops figure that came with the leader scale MMC Shockwave toy.

Nope sorry to burst your bubble, but this is a Joke.

It'll turn out to be something totally different.

This looks pretty damn cool, I'll have to add this to the folder with the Shockwave, Perceptor, and Brainstorm pictures from last year.

Tsutsukakushi, this is a prank. Likely, we'll never see this even if there's a lot of interest. It looks like a mock-up of a product I've seen on Shapeways. If no one else picks up on this, I'll try to update everyone when I see the original product.

*still want the Predaqueen figure to see release at some point!* :CON:


*edit: here it is, a Fakebusker design - http://www.shapeways.com/model/1592943/ ... rgent.html You'll see the purple painted version, kinda like Galvatron*

Seriously, with all the concepts MMC has teased us with, they need to seriously ramp up production.

Thus far they've teased:
Fembots: Arcee, Paradron and Elita-1
Primes: Prima and Solus Prime
Overlord
Quickswitch
and now the DJD, assuming that'll be 5 figures.

Makes a lot more sense than a skinny ass Megatron , i hope this turns out to be correct and isn't all just for shits & giggles .

I'm sure every MTMTE fan will jump all over this if it's the start of the DJD .

Well,I agree with Two out of Three of this.

I'd prefer MMC Cancelled the fembots. Because MMC is too slow. Releasing the Fembots means That it would take 6-10 months longer to release Carnifex Overlord.

I don't feel the MMC Fembots are needed or top Priority. As HasTak is giving fans that 30th version. Then their are all those previous 3rd party arcee toys. I'd be okay with MMC putting the Fembots on the burner while Carnifex Overlord gets bumped up in production. MMC could still release the fembots in 2016.

I knew this tyrantron was a April fools day joke. The toy design seems too low quality for MMC. Even if it wasn't,I wouldn't buy it. As it's too small,overly thin & wirely.

Seriously when are they coming back? thought they'll be featured during the overlord arc.

I'm going to guess they're going to take out Megatron if IDW want to use them again in MTMTE.

I don't read any of the IDW TF comics. I clicked on that wiki link a few days ago. I read about some of the DDJ back story origins. Regarding Grimlock being brain dead.

My questions are. Is Grimlock Permanetly brain dead in the newer 2014 IDW TF comics. What does Grimlock Being Brain dead even mean?
did he die when he became brain dead years ago? Is a brain dead Grimlock a less intelligent one like he was in the 1986 season 3 cartoon? Is there anyway to fix grimlocks brain? is brain dead Grimlock a mindless beast like Savage Noble was from the BM cartoon series?
