You know what's better then an obscure figure that's been repainted right off the bat? When that figure gets a second REALLY OBSCURE repaint!

It's a wonder that Disney Label Mickey Mouse is getting his second repaint, and an interesting choice at that. The original mouseketeer will be getting dressed up for Halloween this year twice over by dressing his Optimus Prime Costume up with haunting red eyes, spider webs in his wings, googly eyes on his feet, and a jack-o'-lantern looking torso.

No... seriously.

It would be hard to make it any uglier, look at the googly eyes on the feet...

It reminds me of what I make in the bathroom everyday around noon...

I will be the first to say that there will be a Santa Claus version of this thing in the near future.

As a proud owner of the original version. I will NOT be getting that.

I can't be the only one laughing at this, right?

Based on the comments so far I would say no.

From description this is indeed haloween version. No fake.
This is limited selling through dream club (No idea what is dream club. japenese retailer?).

by **Talous** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 8:33 pm

Huh, and here I was willing to bet just about anything that we would see a Nemisis/Steamboat Willi repaint first.

Yeah not a fan. I will admit the head on this one looks better then the first one but its still ugly and just plan wrong.

by **JesWal** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 8:43 pm

Ok, the first one was kind of cute. wierd, but that's the Japanese for ya. This... this is simply ridiculous. How exactly does one tie Halloween, Transformers, and Disney together? I would really like to see the backstory concocted for this thing...

by **Jetstorm92210** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 9:04 pm

And I thought that my idea of an Inferno repaint called Disco Inferno was laughable!
Halloween Mickey you beat all the nonsensical repaints in all the history of Transformers (specially the 2007 movie ones: Jungle Bonecruher anyone?) just by not yet existing. :lol:

This is just WRONG! :sad:

Weird. I'd say it wins the prize for weirdest TF ever. Weirder, perhaps, than even Heinlad.

And I bought the original Mickey Prime for my girlfriend. XD Maybe this is confirmation the line is continuing?

Dear Takara,

You are 3 months late with your April Fools joke. I'm sorry. Please try again next year.

way to ugly ...

There are some excellent one liners in this thread. I love posting news that's as communally laughable as this.

Hey Real Devastator, I'm assuming you can read some of that. Does it give a release date? I mean it's obvious it's legit, but I would like to know when this is showing up along with Disney Label Donald Duck and a poor mummy repaint
