The meat and muscle of the Decepticons in Transformers: Prime will be making quite the addition to this year's popular toyline. Takara Tomy's toy panel at Cybertron Con 2012 in Singapore treats us with prototype images of Transformers: Prime Breakdown. Under the moniker of Operation Breakdown, this is likely the Voyager Breakdown listed on BBTS back in January. The figure is expected to be released this June. Check out the prototype below!

I wonder, with or without the eyepatch. Probably with. Adam Baldwin would be proud.
All we need is Airachnid and I'll have the best couple on Prime.

Perfect! Can't wait to see more!

That is possibly one of the best looking voyagers I have seen, and that's just the prototype! I can't wait for Airachnid either. Well done to the design team :APPLAUSE:

Well, I'm pleasantly surprised and shocked.

1.) He's a Voyager. (*queue up the Ratchet fans whining about Deluxes and Voyagers...*)
2.) He seems rather complex. (A welcome change of pace, seeing as PRID's been rather easy.)
3.) I know people are going to say not to worry, but I think it's fair to do so. Don't you find it at least a little odd that we're seeing a TakaraTomy solicitation of this guy and none from Hasbro. (I know, I know, YET. We haven't heard about it from Hasbro yet. Still, I present a valid point.)

Welp, I know I'm sold, that is really gorgeous looking, and you bet your sweet patootie that a third party'll do the eyepatch if he doesn't have it.

The term "couple" is being used kinda loosely there, wouldn't you say? :-B

I wonder what stupid weapon they'll give him. Doesn't PRiD Bulkhead already have his hammer?

"WATCH HIM OUT!"

What?

Well done Takara.

Pick your game! Will we play: "how will Hasbro find a way to take a big ol' gouge out of the enjoyment of their version" or "watch the American toy company utterly fail at bringing a toy to retail?"

Looks great so far.

I dropped a preorder on BBTS, since no word is forthcoming from Hasblow, and I'm not getting screwed like I did with the FE stuff.

lol, yeah, I was wondering the same thing.

This looks so awesome though. I just hope Hasbro doesn't mess it up.

I'm really liking this figure, but I'm very weary of trusting Hasbro with anything that looks remotely cool. Seeing as how this is the first TF line where I actually WANT to get the entire main cast, I think I'll preorder with BBTS just to be safe.

It's really a shame when the fandom is this gunshy about placing their trust in Hasbro. :-(

One word....AWESOME !!! Looks like I'll be buying 2 Voyagers from PRID line. Skyquake and Breakdown. He looks amazing. Alt mode looks too bulky but meh that's fine by me since I always pictured him as an over-muscle decepticon.

PS : I dont mind if it's only by Takara since I have a local store that sells latest Takara toys. Cant wait for this guy

Hm, a bit iffy on this one. Then again, I'm not a fan of his design in the show to begin with.

i have first edition prime and bulkhead.. don't care for megs but bulkhead is very likely going to get his decepticon counterpart to battle it out!

I hope that this actually has a respectable hammer, not that Mech-tech stuff. (At least a detachable hammer from the mechtech...)

Well this the PRID Figure I have been waiting to see, and Boy am I impressed, If that Is just a prototype, I can't wait to see the final one.

They love to use the name "Breakdown". This figure looks more like Motormaster.

That figure looks brilliant.

Wonder how they're going to mess it up between now and release day. Don't know why but I tend to think prototypes look better than the production models so I'm still feeling cautious over this one. Glad to see he's a voyager though as I thought he was going to defy sense and be a deluxe

I knew he would be awesome! Lookin forward to see some paint.

He looks great! Can't wait. I think over the long haul Prime is going to have some really good stuff. I'm digging Breakdown. Can't wait to see Skyquake and Arachnid- definitely cool.
