e-hobby has posted detailed images of ROTF Mindwipe and Skystalker, repaint to homage G2 Dreadwing and Smokejumper. They've also posted images of Elite Guard Prowl, which is the first time we've received an Animated Prowl figure in G1 colours. Both are convention exclusives in Japan, and will be released in August.

Click here to see Elite Guard Prowl and here to see Dreadwing and Smokejumper!

They're still called Dreadwing and Smokescreen in G2.
G2 Dreadwing
G2 Smokescreen :-B

It's very alluring, the blue. Must not reconsider... :HALUC:

I think this is the awesomest blue ever used on any TF! :shock:

I need them, real bad.

loving that blue, and the G2 Decepticon sigil.
I'm I little curious whats up with the cybertronian writing from Mindwipe still being there. I'm gonna keep hoping for proper wing stickers from Reprolabels.

better pictures make Animated Prowl more wantable.

Oh man, Prowl is so win!

Love the G2 hommage, especially since I have the original G2 set to compare this to. If the price is right, I could go for these since I have yet to pick up either of these molds. Then again, Hasbro and Takara have a lot of items in the pipeline I want even more. Tough call, as this set is pretty stellar.

The photographer MUST be spraying these figs with clear coat, oil or at least sugar water. How else could they be this glossy?

DANG. :shock:

Not that into Ford blue myself...

I dont think Ford blue looks like that, Ford blue is much darker. But then again im not a Ford guy either...

An obscure homage?

These are convention exclusives, eh? Bummer. An Elite Guard version of A-Prowl makes sense, and I consider picking him out to give my Elite Guard a third member. If I can still pick up A-Jazz from the HTS when I have money again, I'd consider doing so. I just like this version of Prowl better.

Incredibly tasty stuff here. Looking forward to getting that Prowl.. and maybe the G2 Bombers.

I need those movie figures. I know i'm not going to be able to get them for under $50 but I hope it's close.(35 for a voyager & 15 for a scout is my limit) They look so shiny. :G2CON:

Come here wallet :BLACKEYE:

Wow, Smokescreen even has the G2 Decepticon logo. That's class.

I'm a fan of G2 Dreadwing and Smokescreen and their repaints, which I have but not Dreadwing and Smokescreen(yet), so the use of RotF Mindwipe and Skystalker in this repaint is great in my eyes. Elite Guard Prowl is looking very cool.
