I had a $200 bounty out on Brawn GDO. Glad I can kill that one. With that and what I believe to be Movie Trilogy Ratchet on the way things are looking good for my wallet! Thanks Takara!
What if Cloud Brawn turns out to be deco'd differently from GDO Brawn? ;)


The colors are different. The green is darker, he's orange instead of brown, and he has more silver (like on the forearms).

Should look nicer than the colors on GDO Brawn.

With all these repaints, I really would like to see a set based on more E-hobby repaints.

Where's Overcharge, or Hauler, or Detritus, Shot Hole?

C'mon, hop to it.

I think Starscream as a triple-changer/tank is a pretty cool idea.

The first edition Bulkhead is such a great figure and I think Brawn is the perfect repaint for him… said it back with GDO and I'll say it again. However, Bulkhead himself has started to show up inserted into the G1 fiction (Transformers Retribution for example) as though he had been there the entire time… so it's getting to the point where that FE Bulkhead could stand next to my Masterpiece and iGear figures no problem. So do I need a big ass Brawn? Probably not… but I might get one anyway.

What? No. Transformers: Retribution is not G1 fiction. It's even got Transformers: Prime character faces on its cover.

Get a RiD Bulkhead and repurpose it as G1 Bulkhead. Plain and simple, I would. :)

He appeared in Monstrosity btw.

That looks kinda cool, actually.

:shock: He's got new null rays!

Mere hours after announcing the next wave of figures in the Takara Tomy Transformers Cloud line we have our first toy image! Below we have TFC-002 Starscream, which is a redeco of the Transformers Generations Voyager Doubledealer mold plus what appear to be the Null Ray weapons from Masterpiece Starscream. This figure will be available exclusively from e-Hobby, while his wave mate Brawn will be available through The TakaraTomy Mall. Check out the image below courtesy of the Autobase Aichi Facebook page.

And they're shown on the art, see ;)

And I must say, the mold works well on so many levels.

Another recolor of Blitzwing, whatever!

If this were a standard release, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

It looks like the new null rays are those that came with the Masterpiece MP-3 Starscream mold.

Odd choice, but actually comes across okay. Also, you can pop and flip the wings for a slightly more G1 look. I do that with my Blitzwing.

Good eye, I looked up the part and the design is a match. Could anybody who has both Blitzwing and Masterpiece Starscream see if they fit?

It's uncanny how cool Screamer looks in that body.

Using the null rays from the US version of MP SS - yes, they fit.

Ok, to that I'll say...

Well played TakaraTomy, well played. :APPLAUSE:

Anybody notice Brawn's headshot in the corner. ;)

Anyway, I know a lot of people aren't liking these because they're repaints, but I think Starscream looks really cool. However, due to the exclusive (and expensive) nature of the line, I won't be getting them. Still, pretty badass.

:-?
Is this the first time a G1 deco has been used on a Voyager sized figure to represent Starscream?
I couldnt see them doing all the seekers as that would be crazy, but a set of G1 coloured Voyagers is long over due! ;)
Make all the Cloud figures Toys R Us releases please!! :grin:

Horrible. They might as well repaint rhinox into ramhorn. What cloud are they on anyways ? Cloud 9 ?

Blimey, shoehorning Starscream into that body works pretty well!
