Site Sponsor BigBadToyStore has put up new preorders for Takara's Transformers Prime figures. Most are expected, and we've seen/heard of most of them already. There are a few gems however, like a Voyager-sized Decepticon Breakdown, a Decepticon Deluxe known as Bikon, which may be the Vehicon, due to a lack of it appearing in the listings, and there will be an EZ figure (legends class) of The much anticipated Dreadwing.

Sadly there are no pictures yet, but as soon as there are, you can bet we'll post them!

Check out all the listings here!

Skywarp, you say? Hopefully he isn't Japanese only...

I totally missed that first time around. I went back and pre-ordered it along with Breakdown, Soundwave and Knockout. I'll most likely cancel some of them, but let's see what happens...

VOYAGER and Not Deluxe? Hasbro, you done good.
(Watch me eat these words...)

I suspect Voyager Breakdown is going to be a must-buy. For me, at least. I love chunky-truck alt modes.

Would it therefore be an accurate statement to say that you like big trunks and cannot lie?

I can't wait to see how Breakdown looks. I wonder if the head mold will be missing an eye... :-?

I'll be rolling the domestic dice on these. Skywarp, as postulated, will likely be J only. He was a lot easier to say no too as a DOTM elusive. Still, I can do without yet another seeker repaint for that kind of cash.

Can not wait for pics.

Bikon is indeed Vehicon, as his Japanese name romanised is Bi-i-ko-n-, like in Beast Wars Returns. Just saying

Ohhh I wonder who Bikon is.

And that the other fanboys can't deny?

Great, so Breakdown will have clear arms? Great... :BANG_HEAD:

Voyagers have no hope, or should I say Powerizers...

by **MGrotusque** » Thu Jan 26, 2012 10:15 pm

YES. Breakdown is the figure i've been waiting for. Hope he's decent.

Part of me is really hoping that Skywarp won't be a straight up redeco of Starscream, and will actually be a character with a different design that crops up in season 2. Considering Cliffjumper and Bumblebee don't look identical to one another, I'd say it isn't an impossibility, but probably unlikely.

Either way, I can't wait to see some images of Breakdown in particular.
