Courtesy of e-Hobby we have new images of Takara's upcoming Transformers Prime Arms Micron AM-07 Starscream, AM-12 Breakdown, and AM-13 Knock Out. These images give us nice clear looks at all three in both modes along with their Micron Arms partners. Hasbro has yet to announce if they will be releasing Breakdown domestically. Images mirrored below.

Breakdown:
AWESOME MOLD!! I dont even care if hasbro dumb down his color scheme or make 3 repaints of him

Knock Out:
I like the catalog scan with him being in the metallic red. Now, I thinking about canceling my pre order and jus go and find me a hasbro version to color and paint him myself

SS:
It got a better weapon but i settle for my Hasbro Version

** Looking at Breakdown again....I kinda want a all gray or green version of him so I can pretend he is THE HULK or stick a rubber horn on him and call him Rhino..lol **

Damnit, I want Breakdown!

Someone sacrifice a dozen Bumblebees to Hasbro. Surely that will please them enough to release Breakdown here in the US.

Breakdown continues to impress. Knock out... He has a thing on his chest.

Breakdown looks fantastic.

Just to be on the safe side, I'm gonna go ahead and order the Japanese version. I can't worry about Hasbro screwing us or giving us maybes.

But why...WHY must they screw with the Deluxes so badly? Geez.

Breakdown looks amazing. I hope he gets a Hasbro release soon!

I'd like the labels from AM Knock Out to put on RID Knock Out. He IS supposed to be two-tone, after all, that isn't just some random thing the toy decided to do.

Breakdown is looking good, but I'm worried about his backpack. I can't figure out how he transforms, and it looks like a lot of his vehicle mode may end up back there. His micron looks really good as a hammer. Probably better than whatever Powerizer weapon Hasbro's going to give him.

Starscream's stickers do not help him, I have to say. I think the Hasbro version wins this round.

Breakdown seriously looks amazing.

If it's never released in Europe, I may have to check with ToyzandGamez or Kapow.

I love Breakdown, hope we get a UK release. =P~

Ironically Knock Out is one of the least appealing deluxe's, largely down to the lack of paint.

Those poses do nothing for Starscream. Not that the mold does much for him in the first place.

Breakdown's simply stunning. If he doesn't get an RiD release then someone at Hasbro's gonna bleed.

Arms Micron Knockout isn't as shiny as the magazine shots made him appear. It looks like I'm back on the hunt for RiD Knockout.

Out of these Microns, the only cool-looking animal-ish mode to me is Starscream's. The weapon mode, though, I feel that' pretty neat is a tie between Breakdown's and Knockout's. Their animal modes though... -shudder- :SICK:

Breakdown looks like a great mold, but needs more detailing! But the Takara one probably comes with decals that aren't shown in this pic, right? And I'm sure Reprolabels will do something about that for the Hasbro version.

by **WolfDawg** » Wed May 30, 2012 7:50 am

The fact that we've had so much info on the Takara version of Breakdown and gotten NOTHING from Hasbro has be very nervous. Given Hasbro's track record of screwed over fans on an epic scale, I think I'll preorder the Takara version...

I'm torn between both Knock Outs since neither looks right. Hasbro's looks more ugly, but Takara's looks less accurate, and I always try for the most show-accurate versions. icon-wildride.gif

That is true. I may end up getting the Takara as well, but when I get the chance, I'm preordering FOC first. :grin:

The majority of these Microns and their alt modes just flat out suck ass...'nuff said! :VEHI:

by **wilcosu35** » Wed May 30, 2012 10:34 am

breakdown looks good, as a mold and a deco
though i wouldn't be surprised if hasbro gets him some ridiculous weapon.
if he gets released at all, that is. it's been awfully quiet regarding rid voyagers from hasbro.

News Credits: 6 · by **BeastProwl** » Wed May 30, 2012 11:35 am

you COULD use the RiD Bulkhead's hammer for Breakdown id'e think.

News Credits: 1 · by **phase** » Wed May 30, 2012 11:55 am

I think Breakdown maybe among the 2 other voyagers that are being released in Thundertron's wave.

Hasbro will be making announcements about their product releases for the 3rd and 4th quarter at this little comic book convention out in San Diego some time in July. Seibertron.com will be there to cover the event this year. I'm sure Breakdown will be one of the figures "revealed".

to my eyes his back looks similar to deluxe ratchets where there's one flat panel. the back of his shoulders have a little kibble too. but i think he he looks fantastic.

hasbro would be really stupid if they don't release this to the US.. but then again, we all know that they're not above being incredibly stupid.

Breakdown's Micron is legit. Autopickup.

News Credits: 1 · by **SKYWARPED_128** » Wed May 30, 2012 7:49 pm

I've never been a fan of the whole "fist on wheels" thing for OP, and now there are two of them in every case.

While OP still looked decent in CGI form (though I still don't like the overly bulky design) the toy is certainly not something I'd buy.

On the TFP front, Breakdown is all kinds of awesome, and thankfully G1-ish enough to blend in with my Classics/Generations/MP collection. I'm seriously cherry picking with the PRID line, so any of the figs I get will be absorbed into my other collections.

Arcee and Vehicon will be be only exceptions, as they'll be forming a diorama on my desktop.

by **Fenrir Prime** » Wed May 30, 2012 8:36 pm

Breakdown is amazing.

I honestly prefer Hasbro's Knockout, lesser of two evils in my eyes.

Takara Starscream doesn't have missiles? i'd rather get the dopey weapon from hasbro and keep the missiles than get the Micron and stickers. FAIL
