Another sigthing of upcoming toys from a fellow fansite, and this time it's user Drift of FullMetalHero.com. Apparently, the two-pack Beast Hunters TRU Exclusive Optimus Prime vs Predaking has been found in Portugal - check out the image and details below!

Found these guys in Toys R Us Lisbon Colombo Centro Commercial. I know it isn't really UK related, but I'd think that this was a sign that they're coming to the UK soon. They were €39.99, so I'd expect around the same sort of price in the UK.

*squints*
So Predaking really does have an all-gray head.

Such a terrible 2-pack. Both these figures have been shelf-warming like nobody's business (did they ever make any other Voyagers? I couldn't tell), and these aren't remarkably different (besides losing a few paint aps) so I don't really get the point of it.

Why the decolor? :lol:

So Prime's side windows are now green, his red and blue detailing are faded, his headlights are painted in gold, Predaking's wings are now with black detail, his guns' missiles are now orange, and his sword's blade is orange while the Star Saber's handle and Predaking's robot and dragon mode heads are left gray.

Semi-shelfwarmer, any one???

You'd might as well take a look at the stock photos again:

You said that they were shelfwarming, right? Well in my place, they shelfwarmed until Prime got his upgrade in Rebellion, while Predaking warmed the shelves until he finally transformed. As for the other Voyagers, they also made Shockwave, Grimwing, Ultra Magnus, and (Sharkticon) Megatron (I've posted some photos for you, just in case you aren't familiar with them

At first I was excited. Then I realised there were two things wrong:

1) The recoloring
2) The fact The Netherlands don't have Toys 'R Us anymore

Pass.

We can't: they're too wrapped up with what's going on in Syria. >:oP

That's the first time I've seen Predaking's head uncolored. If I hadn't passed before, I'm definitely passing now.

I can't tell which line is more of a disappointment, Dark of the Moon or Beast Hunters.

Maybe they're treating JelZe like a neighbor they don't like, turning off all the lights and hiding upstairs when he rings the doorbell
