So, Japan's getting two lines as well, eh?

"LA" = "Lost Age" (AOE's Japanese title)

"AD" = "Advanced" (as in the "Movie Advanced" line)

I may try to be patient and get the Takara Dinobots instead of Hasbro's

Most of the Hasbro movie line toys don't appeal to me. But a screen-accurate Grimlock and hound might be worth picking up from Takara. And I can't figure out WHY they couldn't do Drift in the colors he actually is in the movie. I can understand wanting the Dinobots to be a little flashier (color-wise) to appeal to kids, but how hard would it have been to make Drift black and blue instead of blue and blue?

I'm thinking Black night Grimlock is supposed to be Black "Knight" Grimlock. Kinda works where we've seen Optimus referred to as "Silver Knight".

Is that list it, or will Takara have additional toys like Evasion Mode Optimus Prime?

This list is missing the previously announced AD01 through AD19, which we've already seen most of.

Don't count on any significant changes between Hasbro and TakaraTomy, like with the previous Movie lines.

Thanks!

So I take it that the Takara deco won't be completely G1-accurate in cabover mode?
