Great news for those of us who have been patiently awaiting the release of Million Publishing's exclusive Transformers United Artfire, Autobase Aichi is reporting that fans in Japan have started to receive their figures! The figure is repainted hybrid of the RtS Solar Storm Grappel and Universe Inferno molds, featuring two Targetmasters Nightstick and Sparks.

Check out the latest in-hand images courtesy of their facebook page.

Nice. I cant wait to get mine. They played off the crane hook real well with use of the mini-cons. But I wouldnt be suprised BTS does a repaint of their ladder upgrade with holes for the mini-cons to plug in.

Technically only Sparks uses a Mini-Con mold. Nightstick's the same mold that came with Universe Cyclonus, which wasn't a Mini-Con.

Merry Christmas to me. He'll look amazing with Stepper

real shame this and stepper was not mass released, would have bought them in a second

Yes, the two will look great together. Can't wait to get mine.

I'm still holding out hope for an Encore Artfire. That would be awesome!

The Stepper reissue was one of the most under appreciated shelf warmers of the past 10 years yet it was hands down one of the best reissues because they went above and beyond the call of duty with him by releasing him with Jazz's accessories in gold chrome (the original Stepper didn't come with Jazz's accessories).

Same goes for Star Convoy because the reissue had so many improvements over the original.

You're referring to the bookstyle, right? If so, yes - excellent reissue.

You've got it. One of the best reissues of all.

Thanks for all the info, finally got him in.

Thanks for sharing the pic. He looks great.

Anyone interested in a cheap Artfire without the minicons? Not a bad deal...
