Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 11:50 amLooks good. Perhaps this will result in a Hasbro release as well, Just like with Ratchet.
Re: Henkei Red Alert
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 11:54 amI was wondering when we'd see this. Now all we need is Hoist, Grapple, Tracks, Trailbreaker, Skids, and Jazz to complete the Autobot cars collection.

Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 11:57 amInteresting.
Does anybody else feel that white kinda looks like the sticky white used for Prowl. I can just see it rub of the roof the moment I take it out of the package.

Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 12:12 pmWhat, no light bar?
Re: Henkei Red Alert
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 12:13 pmI don't like it. Needs more detail on the sides and the light bar.
Henkei Red Alert!

Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 2:27 pmPerhaps they'll add the light bar so that it fits into those holes on the roof?
Re: Henkei Red Alert
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 2:38 pmNow this is the Smokescreen that is needed. It's perfect. Red is also very nice but I'd like to see the light bar and perhaps a nicer photo because obviously, it's photoshopped and the white looks a bit crappy again, like "Henkei" Ratchet's (which turned out to be Universe).

Wouldn't count on it. They left off Sideswipe's rocket pack.
Re: Henkei Red Alert
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 2:49 pmSmokescreen looks just as awesome as I was hoping! Can't wait for BBTS to open up a preorder.

Yep, shocker huh? The Henkei version looks much better than the Hasbro one. I might have to follow your lead and preorder as well. He does look good-definitely my favorite of the three versions.

Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 2:59 pmUm... what's the big improvement on the Henkei? Or are you guys paid up members of the Pointlessly Chromed Spoiler Society?
Re: Henkei Red Alert
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 3:02 pmI like the transparent red in Red Alert's chest. I wish I lived in Japan.
Re: Henkei Red Alert
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 3:03 pmI am so not buying another Sunstreaker mold...two is plenty for me...
Re: Henkei Red Alert
Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 3:18 pmred alert is a fake! 
thats a shippy photoshop/piant recolor you can even see the red is fake! but if this is a crappy prototipe and the reel one is good well then.. a men to that!

Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2008 3:27 pmAwwww Dammit, I had plans to make my own Universe Red Alert with the Sideswipe mold, but now I don't know if I should bother since the Henkei will be much better than anything I painted.

Aye, and we know that this is a fairly bad photoshop, so they either left it off by accident or on purpose because they didn't have the new remolded lightbar to add there yet.
I like my land of hopeless optimism.
