This looks absolutely amazing and I think they've knocked all the beast wars mps out of the park

The thing about the alternate Primal was that it had the added benefit of having appeared in a theatrical feature-length movie, so that toy was able to be marketed as a movie version of the character, on top of the added toy-based bonuses it received.ZeroWolf wrote:I forgot about the alternative Primal, does that mean a similar release for megs?

While it is what I'd prefer, it's also what I'm not expecting since, unlike the toy/movie-based Primal and the Japanese-in-origin Shadow Panther, T-Wrecks has never really had a presence in Japan.william-james88 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:

That is probably what will happen since that character has appeared in media using elements of his mutant head which the beast wars redeco are all about adding. And plus it would be like the cheetor reeco, which was also about homaging a redeco of the original toy.

For one thing, he's made of much larger (and fewer) parts than either dinobot, cheetor, and primal. So, short of electronics, he should be about that same price as primal in my books, if he pushes $300 just because he's big, I'm going to be very irritated.

Doubtful. The season 1 cast of the Canadian series seems to be the most popular in Japan. In particular, Japan gives no beans whatsoever about the Transmetals. If anything beyond the Season 1 cast has a chance of getting a MP, it would be Lio Convoy, and even his chances are already slim to none.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:A thought occurred to me the other day, if they decide to go all in with Beast Wars and include BW2 and Neo, we are looking at about 90% of the entire toyline being converted to Masterpiece?

Adapters for the display stand. One is to hook the Golden Disk to the base, one is to connect Dinobot to the base in robot mode, and one is to connect Dinobot to the base in beast mode.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:BTW, There seems a lot of extra bits with Dinobot.

The 1996 Primal came with a riot shield? I hae the toy but I dont know what you are talking about.

Too small? Megs is gigantic. He's taller than Dinobot, who towers over Primal.Sodan-1 wrote:He's too small. Or the other Beast Wars MPs are too big.

This problem, again? If the Japanese Market keeps holding all of these lines back, HasTak needs to ignore them and capitalise on the Global Fanbase instead. I pretty sure there are more of us, outside of Japan and we most likely hand over a lot more money. Leave them to their endless Car Bots and Optimus Primes, I want MP Rampage, Depthcharge and an MP BW Ravage that transforms into a Cassette!Sabrblade wrote:Adapters for the display stand.

Aww That's a shame. I thought we were getting some additional show extras I couldn't place. So who is getting the Vok Disk? Tigatron? Inferno? Tarantulas?william-james88 wrote:AllNewSuperRobot wrote:The one slight nitpick I have with the MP Primal is that he doesn't come with a Riot Shield, as the original did.

WIRES CROSSED!
In one episode of Season One, Primal uses a Riot Shield. K9 and Wolfang (who I also own) do come with Riot Shields, attached to their backs. Which with a bit a twiddling back in the day I had Primal hold. So in essence I was projecting my own minor retooling as a default for the figure itself.

As little often as we saw the two face to face in their robot modes during Season 1, Megs was rather bigger than Primal.william-james88 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Too small? Megs is gigantic.

I hope not too much though, they are supposed to be able to fight one on one without it looking incredibly outmatched (as an homage to King Kong).
