Though talking of Nucleon, I'm kind of starting to want Takara's Galvatron just for him... that paintjob is delicious.

[ZeroWolf]

Looks like someone has had a lot of fun doing those 'base' modes

[Braker]

I actually managed to get a nice base mode out of Rewind, and a spider-tank mode for Hardhead

[Ultra Markus]

looks like a throne! very fitting for galvatron

[DedicatedGhostArt]

Actually I think silly meant that the base mode picture looked like a toilet.

[Carnivius_Prime]

eh, no less worse looking than official 'base' modes for actual base mode Transformers and at least these guys have actual proper alt-modes anyways unlike most base Transformers. Is why I always preferred Scorponok over Metroplex or Fortress Maximus cos he had a decent robot mode and a cool mobile alt mod of a scorpion and the base was just a bonus. Fort Max always looked like a random collection of blocks no matter what configuration.

[RiddlerJ]

It does make me lament the "base modes" of some of these figures. The new Optimus Prime's base mode, for example, doesn't look much better. Even Fort Max's modes aren't as impressive as the price would deserve.

The original Fort Max at least brought a lot of play value to his base mode.

It was an internet joke dude. I know what your reference is. All this proves is that I watch too much Youtube.

The only toilet is Shortround...

I agree with the idea that Takara's head looks better. But, the purple on the Hasbro one looks glorious in the pics. I'll have him in hand soon, so I hope it looks as good as Seib's galleries!

Yeah that's my issue. Takara's looks better as far as the head and such, but TR Galv's purple matches just so beautifully with CW Cyclonus. I am sad. I hope maybe Fakebusker on Shapeways makes a fuller helmet piece for Galvatron that wraps around the head more, even though the purples probably wouldn't match that well.

[Sabrblade]

Unlike Hasbro's Nucleon, the Takara head is the one and only Megatron himself.

[Optimum Supreme]

Skullcrusher, is that a tail in your pilot chair or are you happy to see me?

[Megatron Wolf]

This is why drunken adults should not be allowed to play with childrens toys, the race to 100 dong jokes begins! On another note time to break out the model paint cause nucleon is getting a makeover, takaras version looks amazing and i am just a little ashamed to own the hasbro version now.

I am so glad my dad doesn't drink for partially that reason.

By the way the machine that came with the hard head's "Butler" is "tankette" skull. Together and collectively partnered loans called in, along with the head master who acts. The big success came in so stay tuned ♪

[Evil Eye]

I do love the little colour-matched tank that comes with Legends Hardhead.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Seibertron Cyberpath has dropped in to let us know what Yuki has to say to us today. And today, he brings in Hardhead and Skull, and decides to show them off with their little drone buddies.

Hardhead's drone is the little tank figure that will be coming with Terribull AKA Horribull and Skytread AKA Flywheels coated in a green that matched up with his tank mode nicely, making for a double whammy of awesome green tank power.

Skull meanwhile brings in his little buddy whom transforms into a bird and a little T-Rex. Hasbro is using the molds for their Crashbash AKA Squeezeplay and Clobber AKA Grimlock. Skull's little buddy uses the pinkish color that Skull has as well as some purple not found on Skull.

Check out the images below and let us know what you think in the comments section below. These guys are due out very soon, so get ready to finally experience these guys in-hand!

So, if I'm to understand this correctly, the smaller vehicles or "partner drones" (not "partnered loans" ) have official names? Hardhead's is called "Tankette" and Skull's is "Battler"? Interesting

Apparently, Bing Translate sucks as bad as Google Translate...

Why would Bing be better than Google at anything? I am surprised it isnt worse.

Because Microsoft! (Ag drinks the Microsoft Kool-Aid™)

These look really cool and are nicely color coordinated. If I remember correctly, and please someone correct me if I am not remembering right, Hasbro's are not so nicely color coded to these specific figures.

Not at this level,no.

[Kurona]

Well, I mean, the Titan Master vehicles aren't really supposed to be colour co-ordinated with the Headmasters...
