Site sponsor TFsource just dropped by to let us know the latest reveal and this is an exciting one. Just announced what is just announced is that MP-31 will be Delta Magnus, a homage to the original Diaclone Ultra Magnus! Not only that, but with this announcement we get pre-orders from TFsource themselves.

Check out the images they've provided below, and you can pre-order yours here.

Additionally the Japanese Legends series continues, with the Titans Returns figures with LG21 Hardhead, LG22 Skullcruncher, and LG23 Galvatron. All of which can be pre-ordered below. The interesting part is that the deluxes appear to include a Titanmaster vehicle from Hasbro's wave 1 of Titans Return. Hardhead appears to be paired with an army themed recolor of Terribull's vehicle, and Skullcruncher is paired with Crashbash's animal. Moreover, both Titanmaster's are shown in their hitherto revealed weapons modes.

Hardhead
Skullcruncher
Galvatron

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Btw, what are those with Hardhead? Drones? Transformable?

D-UM would be great but the only way you can get me to get another wallet busting mold is if they, TT includes the transforming scout car from the Diaclone version.

This doesn't seem necessary... :/ I get they need to have more than one version of the mold to make the investment worth it, but... Couldn't we have got a dark Decepticon repaint instead? The Autobots continue to vastly outnumber the 'Cons. :CON:

Except it's a diaclone, so it's kinda not an autobot... but, yeah, a new head and a 'nemesis' deco would've been awesome 8-)

Oh boy, I have my own Masterpiece now! Hooray! :lol:

In all seriousness, he looks great. Gotta love Diaclone goodness.

Hardhead looks fantastic. I'll reserve judgement on Skullcruncher and Galvatron until I see colour pictures. Interesting that Galvatron is still a Headmaster though...

I guess the new MP train had to slow down eventually. Oh well, money saved and all that.

The MP line is done by Takara. Hasbro occasionally does their own releases but aren't obligated to release everything Takara makes.

Fairly certain he's talking about the headmasters.

Under actual controlled solicitation time frames.
Also just a different business model in a lot of ways as compared to Takara.

Hasbro releases only a couple of Masterpiece figures a year usually in the summer time. I would image we will get some info at BotCon which is where they tend to release MP info.

I could care less about the Mp's, I was referring to the Headmasters. Even Victorion for that matter.
