First Looks at Takara Tomy Transformers Prime Arms Micron AM-33 Darkest Megatron & AM-34 Jet Vehicon General

DMC v.2 looks pretty great, it's nice that it's one consistent color. No interest in Darkest Megatron personally, but it's nice that they made it! As for JVG? OHHH man, that looks amazing. I can't wait for some clearer pictures, I mayyy have to break down and finally get a Takara mold for myself.

And I thought I had my AM list all set out in stone.

Oh well. Thank you for giving us Prime-Arm Megatron and Starscream's Armada, Takara.

It looks a little too "off white" for me. I was hoping it'd be more silver.

I preordered one. Unless some better shots turn up in the next sample, I think I'll stay at one.

I suspect that's the lighting in the picture. I'd bet that it'll be pure Takara white plastic.

Did you watch the season two finale? They were in the entire second half of it.

AM-33 is apparently named "Final Battle Megatron" and the redecoed Dark Matter Calibur is the "Dark Unicron Saber".

I did watch the season 2 finale, but strangely I don't recall any white Vehicons. Then again I just watched it once, and it's been at least four months since then.

Megatron w/ a Prime arm? Where? All I see is Megatron with his right arm painted purple and gold stickers slapped onto it.

Depends if you count the AM Editions as a separate version, due to the remolding.

PRID only so far;

Hasbro Voyager Megs (and AM vesrion)
Hasbro DE Megs
AM Darkness Megs
AM Darkest Megs

So 4, possibly 5 depending on your personal preference.

Op weighs in with;

Hasbro Voyager Op (and AM Version)
Hasbro DE Op
TRU AM Battle Shield OP
Asia Op with Unicron two pack

So again, 4 or 5 depending on how you count, personally I only consider the AM's as a separate version when the deco hasn't been touched by Hasbro; i.e AM Terrorcon Bumblebee.

The above list doesn't include FE Molds or anything from Beast Hunters, just PRID, hope that helps

Now, will these two new pieces bring with them a new Arms Micron Promotion

The Jet Vehcion looks like a James Bond Car...!

that's gotta be the most show accurate Megatron to date, only wish they included an interchangeable normal arm for him so we don't have to display him with the Prime one
