Just you wait, this won't be imported due to a claim by the WWF saying they don't want gorillas associated with "war toys".

Arent they called the WWE now?


Just kidding.

[Shuttershock]

But the most important question of them all.

Can he ride Voyager Rhinox?

[SureShot18]

Primal is lookin noice. Masterpiece Beast Wars Megatron please Takara

[Sabrblade]

Are we sure that was the right video? There weren't any shots of the colored toy in it, only gray prototype shots.

Though, I gotta say, Dinobot's Japanese voice sounds oddly fitting despite sounding a little dumber and more thuggish.

There are several videos. This was just one of them.

[Robogeek1973]

And still no preorders.


Get to it online stores, sheesh.

Gotta wonder, as easy as it would be to design a megs, I wonder how TT would approach his back kibble shrinking as much as it does

Would they use panels that collapse inward and make it thicker? The Cybertron version got by this with clever shoulder pads, wonder if TT would emulate that

[fenrir72]

I dig the promo gal. So kawaiiiiiiiiii ............ Beast Convoy too

[fenrir72]

It looks nice, and I hope this is hinting to a new Dinobot toy, among others. But I don;t know that it is enough better that the 20th anniversary one at http://amzn.to/1Lu8xWT

It's of its own class. But comparing the two is like comparing apples and oranges

Is it just me or dose that Dinobot have a different color than the original.Also that mp Optimus Primal looks epic.

It's the second release Japanese version of the figure, which had tan skin with brown stripes, a brown helmet, and red robot eyes, instead of the pink skin with black stripes, black helmet, and yellow eyes the Hasbro version had (the first run Japanese release was identical to the Hasbro version).

If by original you mean the 1996 Hasbro Dinobot, then yes. The Dinobot pictured is the Takara Dinobot which was lighter in color than the Hasbro one.

Well Takara did work miracles when they engineered SkyByte, reducing the amount of back kibble considrably. They could do something similar with Megatron.

There isn't enough drool to show how excited I am right now.

Ok thanks.

With the recent Delta Magnus news, I think this is a good time to point out that MP Optimus Primal is in fact NOT designated as MP-31 (obviously)

[Insurgent]

So what is he? When is he due? He's more important than Diaclone Magnus!!!!

I think Delta Magnus is the one that is mistaken about the number. But we'll see.

Especially considering that Primal's number came from an official source while TFSource isn't.

I would imagine TFSource gets their listing info straight from Takara.

Why? Takara doesnt sell to TFSource, they contractually can't. To get Takara items they have to go through a regional wholesaler which is where their listings come from.

Primal is gorgeous. I want him something fierce
