Thanks once again to fellow member Cyberpath and once again through TFND's Facebook, we have yet more images of the very recently revealed LG54 Bumblebee & Spike, LG55 Targetmaster Slugslinger, LG56 Perceptor (with Ramhorn!) and LG57 Octane & Ghost Starscream -- this time getting clearer looks at their Robot modes, a look at their vehicle modes, and a very nice look at the very creepy Ghost Starscream Titan Master. Check 'em all out below and tell us what you think in the forums!

Oh Slugslinger you magnificent beast. You were my very first G1 Targetmaster, I simply must have this modern version.

How much of your soul is left these days Va'al?

Nice Color Scheme...

WAIT A SEC...

Damn you , you made Slugslinger in Sonic Colours , i guess he'll be collecting Rings now

[Randomhero]

They should not have painted Octones shoulder pieces red. I get it's suppose to show possession and when those pieces are down to make him look more like the cartoonbuy they kill his arm articulation.

Gotta say, the extra detailing on Slugslinger's shoulders and quadruple-nipples really help him pop. I do prefer the bottom of the cockpits being white from Hasbro's version though.

Bumblebee is a straight-up improvement, but eh, I'm happy with my Hasbro version.

I admit he looks like Sonic due to the color paint applied. my mind says "Is he gonna collect Rings or some Emeralds?"

must admit that i was confused as to what that starscream head was supposed to be. An interesting idea but a bit poorly executed i think.

Otherwise some lovely toys, but as usual I'll be sticking to the hasbro versions.

It's a repaint from Quake's Head

... dude, you're totally right! How did I miss that?!

[Albatross250]

Simple
Stole Quake's idea and turned it into a minimashed Starscream
Sneaky and Clever-wise

There's a chance now that me might get an Headmaster of Krok

There's also Quake released in Japan( Hasbro, of course), and Takara Tomy get their creativity of creating a mini-headmaster thus, Ghost Starscream (no not the UW one, the Headmaster one.) is born.

Let's Backtrack a bit, look at Quake's Head
and then look at the Starscream one. Confirmed Repainted

Cheers! well spotted.

Also though I do prefer takara's additional paint apps on the TR figures - that face on spike... looks a bit creepy.

I had no interest in getting Perceptor, but now that i see Ramhorn in proper colours.....i am selling my Titans Return Perceptor. Good thing it's still MOMC.

Looks like a new mold.

[RAR]

I wanna see Spike's Head mode.

[Kurona]

So... yeah, there doesn't seem to be much of a difference between Hasbro and Takara Perceptors at all. And despite the lack of a yellow headstripe thing, I think I prefer the minor differences on Hasbro's. Lucky me~

[Kurona]

I wanna see Spike's Head mode.

It's essentially the exact same as Hasbro Cerebros.

It looks different different right? Those are two different cerebros heads. What the hell is the point in that? Just use the Hasbro mold Takara.

LG56 Perceptor (with Shuffler weapon)

Shouldn't that say Ramhorn weapon?

[Randomhero]

Yeah what is everyone on? That is not quakes head repainted as starscream. It's completely different

It's a straight up seeker head with vents on the side. Quakes head doesn't have vents and the top of his head makes a point. Totally not the same

[Randomhero]

I wanna see Spike's Head mode.

There's already one. Go to the preview page

[Rated X]

Heres hoping Renderform goes back to his previous success and starts making bumper and hubcap heads for Hasbro bumblebee. And while hes at it do Cliffjumper heads for Chase. Its not like there gonna do all 6 Throttlebots in different unique molds so f**k it.
