Yuki's Tweet that these pics came from is promoting the Micron's specifically, though. It's announcing that the Microns for the Adventure subline called "Prime of Micron" are to be released at the end of the month and that new 5mm pegs have been added to the molds. Roller isn't mentioned anywhere in the Tweet, he's just being used as a sample figure to show how the Microns' new pegs now allow them to attach to bigger figures' 5mm ports.D-Maximus_Primal wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Isn't this more Adventure news than UW news since it's about the Microns' new pegs?

But then Japan wouldn't get the Rook head domestically if Roller got a new head.MGrotusque wrote:Wandering Roller (awesome name) needs a new head sculpt to be even more awesomer.

But would that be fair? The spreadsheet was mainly to show how these molds were being milked. Hasbro and Takara are not allowed to distribute in the same place (unless through special agreements with Hasbro Asia) so most people either have one or the other at retail. What could be interesting is to make one for Hasbro, one for Takara and one for Fun Pub and see which one milks the most.

Oh I'm just looking for a complete list somewhere of all the CW (& UW/FunPub) figures in one place, categorized/organized by the mold. It's not a political thing or vendetta, I simply want it for reference. It would be super handy for collectors.

... which is exactly what I've done. Hasbro is the clear winner in that regard, with 6 uses for the Harrier mold (2 Fireflight and 4 Slingsnot) alone! Dead End/Streetwise is another overly used one: 9 uses in all.
