The CyberGundam blog has posted a small image from Figure King 176 of Takara Tomy's upcoming Transformers Prime Arms Micron Thundercracker and Orion Pax. Both are First Edition repaints, Thundercracker being a redeco of First Edition Starscream and Orion Pax a reuse of First Edition Deluxe Optimus Prime, which will hopefully feature Decepticon faction symbols.
We've mirrored the image below.

I assume that these will be available through BBTS or one of the other online stores. I must have that Thundercracker. Any ideas on what the cost shipped to the US might be, those of you who have bought this sort of thing before? Thx.

Guess this is how Japan's getting the Deluxe FE mold, and it's a good idea.

Nope. They aren't bringing in either Skywarp or Thundercracker since they want to keep Starscream as unique as possible.redoutlander wrote:I didn't see Season 2 yet. is Thundercracker in the show or is he just the ambiguous repaint?

I thought it was already confirmed Skywarp is a Tak exclusive. I don't see a Thundercracker release in the U.S at all, though.

Orion Pax may not be a bad idea! And YES! We're getting Thundercracker! At least he's in Deluxe Class, but why would Takara make OP be a redeco of the FE Deluxe mold?

And maybe the smaller size will help emulate the "younger Optimus Prime" aspect that Orion Pax represents.
