They'll do Black Shadow. Retool or not he's unique enough and he's one of Japan's babies.
You can never be sure with Takara. Liokaiser was a G1 original of theirs & it looks like they passed on doing a version of him.
What are you talking about they made an ehobby exclusive out of the alpha Trump mold
That is some very unfortunate autocorrect.
Regardless, they're not talking about Lio Convoy - they're talking about Liokaiser, the Decepticon combiner from Victory which Hasbro made a Platinum boxset out of but Takara didn't bother with.
Derp... too many lio characters. Even so it doesn't mean Takara won't make black shadow. Takara just didn't do liokaizer because they wanted their Combiners to be as faithful as that could and just didn't want to make Jaguar and leozack. They didn't do it. Just like we didn't get Grand Galvatron or ruination.
Ah, but wouldn't they want Sky Shadow to be as faithful as could be? That's why it's a little up in the air; same with Megatron.

Or alternately retool Windblade's Titan-Master into a small Preceptor.

Perceptor's Titan Master is a small version of him, so you could totally just swap the faces of Windblade and Perceptor for the desired effect

Yeah kinda of, it looks more like his original toy self. Still, hoping for the first idea. It would be the first real Nijika figure. And I already have my own back-story for it.
Given how Takara treats Headmasters in Japan, and given how Takara completely changed Sixshot's Headmaster from how his Hasbro Titan Master looked, Takara would WANT Perceptor's Headmaster to look like a mini-Perceptor.Cyberpath wrote:Kurona wrote:Cyberpath wrote:I'd love for Takara to completely redo Perceptor's head and face sculpt to better resemble the cartoon-model AND retool his Titan-Master into Nijika.

They'd more likely want a Nijika Headmaster on Windblade's toy since Windblade in Japan is depicted as Nijika's little sister, which would enable Takara to use the TR Windblade mold as Nijika herself.Cyberpath wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Given how Takara treats Headmasters in Japan, and given how Takara completely changed Sixshot's Headmaster from how his Hasbro Titan Master looked, Takara would WANT Perceptor's Headmaster to look like a mini-Perceptor.
They might want Nijika too, since Perceptor's consciousness was transferred into the puppet once, it would make a nifty reference.

If you didnt get Super Ginrai already, you can look at it like this. If you get both you can display Super Ginrai and God Ginrai together, as well as CW Optimus to be standard Ginrai and the Ginrai titanmaster (placing the God Bomber Titanmaster under the Super Ginrai helmet) to get that evolution effect

It just became available from TFSource. I did the BBTS order myself already thinking the about the changing, although I'm thinking about BBTS and not charging until ships and TFS and charging at order. I want the Source points, but I don't want the bill right now.
