Some new pictures of upcoming Transformers Henkei figures Hound and Cheetor have been posted at the Hikeguma Toy Toy Blog showing in and out of package shots of the Japanese figures. Unfortunately, the only panther mode we see of Henkei Ravage is in package.

You can view all the images of Cheetor here and Hound with Ravage here.

I love the poseability that Hound is capable of. Ravage I fell in love with way back when we first saw prototype photos. Love 'em.

Damn it. I've only bought Henkeis when they've been notably better than the original and don't have too much chrome. So I only have Megatron, Astrotrain and Ironhide.

But Hound seems to have a darker green platic that looks much nicer, he has stars on both wheel covers and the yellow line in vehicle mode makes the jeep much more visually interesting I think.

So I will probably have to fork out for Hound, Smokescreen and Ratchet now.

What I'm trying to say is: They've done a damn fine job with Henkei Hound

Agreed, I love the Hound, and of course Ravage.

Any pics of the Henkei Ratchet vs US Ratchet?

I'm really anxious for the side-by-side shots of Universe Hound and Henkei Hound. The chrome is looking pretty logically placed on the Henkei version....

Whoa, that Hound is awesome. I'm so glad I preordered!

Hound is beautiful. I'm so happy that one of my all time fave G1 characters is getting such a worthy makeover.
It looks like he can pull some damn cool poses too.

Normally I love Ravage, but I'm not too hot on his look on this one. Anyone know where I can find a better picture of this? Hound is a must have though.

I always liked Hound, so this is one I shall get.
I am also happy to see Maximals and Predacons coming back. My only problem with Cheetor is the feet....I hope the Beast Era fellows won't be made as an after thought...especially since animal transformers are what I like most.
