... I never noticed before, but are those Titan Master pegs on the Targetmaster's barrel?

Oh my goodness. I hadn't noticed those either!

I'd ask why they're there, but it's obviously so you can stick two heads onto the front of Kup's gun. What else would you use them for?

Are those also titanmaster pegs on Kup's shoulders? These new shots of Kup really make this new mould/paint look incredible. I have the OG Gen. Kup and he is hard to beat w/ his cygar iGear head. Would love to see LG Kup with the iGear cygar head.

Hate to be that guy, but I do prefer the Hasbro head without a doubt but the colors are still pretty iffy. However when you paint the Titans Return Kup like this, I have basically my perfect Kup; even beating out the Generations version.

I think they have to be. I just took a look at TR Kup and he has similar shoulder pegs that face forward, but those are for pegging into the hole in the wrist for vehicle mode. Legends (whoops, I mean Lovely) Kup's pegs would point straight down in vehicle mode and there is nothing below the shoulders in that mode to peg into.

But, more importantly, you should be able to make a 3 headed Kup by pegging 2 more titan mater head onto his shoulders. THREE HEADED KUP!!!!!

1) Unless I see some revolutionary pics, the Takara head looks like Kup, the Hasbro one just doesn't.

2) These pics are way better than the previous ones... The first pics made him look grey. These actually show he is the right colors just way darker.

I would be happiest with Hasbro Kup with the Takara's head mold... I have the "Classics" and even the Prime one so I will figure out if I wanna get this one.

There is a possibility we might get a TL Hb Takara painted version of it just like the recent "Headmaster" set of the Hb TMs.

I wouldn't call you that guy at all! That's actually exactly what I was curious about - cool to hear others' opinions and I'm glad you're happy with whichever you prefer.

And yeah, that custom does really help the TR version shine. With that paintjob, I could see myself honestly going either way on the headsculpt - but I do still think that the remolded LG/LV arms are more accurate to pretty much every version of Kup I can think of. (To each their own of course though - I adore this Kup but if you like the TR version more power to you! At the very least you'll have an easier time getting your ideal version.

)

We newsed two months ago that 2017 would give us another Toy Show exclusive Takara Transformers LG-EX Black Convoy / Scourge. We finally have an image of it from @spriggan_fuku on Twitter. It is exactly as you would imagine it with a very faithful deco on Titans Return Voyage Optimus Prime.

As with all LG-EX toys, this will be readily available at specialty importer shops online (like our site sponsors) so the only obstacle into westerners getting this would be the markup due to its Exclusivity. Previous voyager LG-EX toys were sold around the $60 price point.

I mean, why wouldn't they? Hasbro didn't because they're cheap as sh|t, but TT takes proper pride in the things they design. Though scourge does seem to have the solid grey wings just like laser prime did, but the monotone silver hull seems like it kind of pulls everything together. Can't wait for pre-orders :DANCE:

I agree that this color scheme fits this figure particularly well. What I would love to see, and maybe it will happen with the next line after Titans Return is a true Rodimus Prime. We're getting all of these Season 3 Gen 1 figures, which is great, and I'm enjoying them immensely, but a unique non-redeco'd Rodimus Prime would be outstanding. It wouldn't have to be a leader class, although I would buy that in a heartbeat, but something that gives the character it's well deserved due.

For the life of me, I cannot fathom why Hasbro can't just give us a random Nemesis Prime every now and then, especially since they're the one's that made the character up in Armada... seriously, they're so enthusiastic on redeco's, why not give us a cool one like this, instead of re-issuing that crappy galvatron figure :SICK:

Maybe Warden's team doesn't have the same love for black Optimus redecos that Archer's team had?

They packed galvatron with alpha trion in a revision case, guess they over-produced galvatron mistakenly assuming people would buy that piece of crap, then no one did, so they decided to stuff a revision case with it, so it could shelfwarm even harder 8-}

Oddly enough, I have no problem with this mold. Even the jet mode isn't as bad in person as I thought it would be. Octone's remolding makes it look even better.

It's not a case of English vs. Japanese name. RiD 2001 and Armada aren't the same series.

They're both epic, cool, black repaints, so they're ostensibly the same thing in my eye's, besides Nemesis Prime is a way cooler character

Well yeah I know that but they are both black and teal Prime repaints was my logic hence me saying can we "cheat".

They could always call him "Grand Scourge" too.

Not when it's a G2 Laser OP body-type. That's RiD Scourge/CR Black Convoy. An Energon Optimus body-type would be Grand Scourge (like what we got with the UW figure). Nemesis would just be any other ordinary Optimus body-type, usually (lest there be any other specific exceptions out there, like a Lio Convoy body-type being Black Lio Convoy).

Just because it was in the past doesn't mean they have to do only what is bound in said past they could easily give Nemesis Prime the G2 body and no one would care.

This is why we can't have new things like Alpha Bravo and Rook.

I dont think we can, not in the west. And in any case Scourge is far more synommous with RID than Armada since thats where he started.

As for Tidal Wave, he is in a boxset, not mass release. Just like G2 Prime which isnt G1 either. Of course, you could argue, "but why not put Scourge instead of G2 prime then" and thats a totally legit question. But I think Hasbro knew takara would do this, so they wanted to offer fans something different. Like that instead of choosing between 2 scourges (one from hasbro and one from takara), you can collect the same mold in 3 different colours. Hurray!

On the contrary. People DO care. Back when this TR Voyager Optimus mold was first revealed, people saw its influence in the G2 Laser Optimus body and wanted it done as RiD Scourge/CR Black Convoy. Not Nemesis Prime, Scourge. Specifically the guy from RiD 2001/Car Robots cartoon. Because, unlike virtually every other guy ever called "Nemesis Prime" back, Scourge was a legit character, and a COOL one at that! He had focus, development, his own long-running arc and agenda. He was a full-fledged character, whereas a proceeding "Nemesis Primes" of the 2000s were less actual "characters" more just mere "concepts", evil black Optimus Prime lookalikes made for the sake of it.

You can color any old Optimus Prime toy and call it "Nemesis Prime" all you want, but anytime there's a new toy based directly on G2 Laser Optimus Prime, any evil black redeco of that has GOT to be Scourge and it's got to look like Scourge, cuz that's his look, and he makes it look so good. 8-)

I get that and I do agree but it could just be a case where the box says one thing but the intended use is for something else like how say FOC Fireflight was called Air Raid on the box despite it not being the intention or with Titans Return Breakaway is actually Getaway with a different name one that I associate with a much cooler ROTF character.

Personally I call my toys whatever I want and not always what the box says so really I could do something original and call him Nemesis Prime the Grand Scourge of the Black Convoy but that's just me.

It would have been a pretty gorgeous color scheme on that figure

Yeah but who is asking for Flattop besides his 10 fans?

I like Flattop

Hey Flattop fan number 7.

Are there any of the other 9 fans here I should be aware about?

This is Takara we're dealing with here, though. We know that won't happen because they've already released a "LG-EX Black Convoy" toy previously with its correct name and Car Robots characterization left fully intact. There's nothing preventing them from doing the same for this figure, as we already know that its name is "LG-EX Black Convoy" and that Sakamoto knows that this is the Car Robots character. There's even a litle Combatron Mark :RENEGADE:

on the figure's chest window in that pic.

I thought we were talking about if Hasbro made him?

But your right about the Takara stuff so no arguments from me there.
