Right behind Nemesis Prime. And the correct translation of "Cyrus" is kinda up there. In the Prime cartoon the MECH operative's name is "Silas", then it became Cylas, which has the same pronunciation.

Barely visible behind Nemesis Prime.

Ah, now I see it. It appears to be black, but that's about all I can see. Still, I have a feeling it will be cooler than the original or the Swerve repaint.

Now I'm sure it's just me who's seeing this. Shockwave looks loke he's got an entirely different mold aside from his head.

Entirely different from what? Have we already seen other pictures of Prime Shocky?

Just the FoC mold in the announcements, which may be just a placeholder.

I'd be willing to bet that was just a placeholder.

I really do hope Leo Prime gets a new prime-ish head and two complete legs. The regular leg has better articulation, and will simply look better on a toy who's not supposed to look like a pirate in this case.

the cool thing about these pics is that now I know what Transformers will look like in the future...when I'm old and have cataracts.

I'm sorry, but this is depressing. #-o

And I blame BBTS, who gave the infamous name of "Hoilgaru" to United Wheeljack. :roll:

It's not even worth squinting to see if I can make anything out. Can someone please wake me when we get some decent shots?

I-)

It's okay. As I said, BBTS is at fault.

Though, it's "Leo Prime".

I'm kinda interested in Nemesis Prime... until I realize how ridiculous the price will probably be. If I still don't have Breakdown in my collection, ain't no way I'm getting Nemesis Prime.

Bah, to be honest, I could care less about Breakdown. Unicron, though, I actually want. Why IS Hasbro not releasing anything Prime related anymore, anyway? I heard it had something to do with the molds being too expensive or something.

The molds were too cost effective and don't fit into Hasbro's aesthetic for the toyline, so they're in a "no man's land".

Though, Hasbro's still gonna release Dreadwing, Rumble, Kup, Ultra Magnus, Thundertron (

), and Skyquake for this year. Who knows what 2013 will hold for us.

Hopefully a Prime Shockwave. Released over here. :PRAY:

And if they're gonna release Kup, they should really release Ironhide as well.

Speaking of which, it doesn't look like the Shockwave is a new mold to me. It just looks like he has a new gun, which is probably because that'll be his Arms Micron. The wings also look a bit different, too, but that's probably just the angle.

Takara Prime Shockwave is the Generations figure remolded to have an Arms Micron.

I assumed that, but I saw some users in the earlier posts mentioning that it looked like a new mold.
