But anyway, anyone else see T-AI in the background as well? Ma-a-a-a-an, if they make these... Mmh!

Sabrblade and I compiled the cameo list a couple of posts ago. And the comic is read in reverse in Japan (how many times have I said that already? )

Like Bumblebee, they both like dressing up it seems. Between panels even.

BOB!

Wahoo! The series ins't canceled! It just had a change of artist.

Let's see there's:

Optimus Prime
Bumblebee
Purple silhouette guy
A Constructicon
Jazz
Ratchet
Bulldog
Mindwipe
Weirdwolf
C-X
Alligatorcon
Cerebros (different guy from Fortress, apparently)
Ironhide
Mirage
Hound


Huh, not much fanwankery here besides C-X and the Alligatorcon.

This is TakaraTomy and Japan we're talking here. Not Hasbro. but I know you're going to ignore that for whatever reason anyway.

I missed that. But honestly Im surprised. Usually dumbed down TF toys are geared towards the "western market". Takara usually makes nothing but the good stuff. I wonder if they'll end up with constructobots as well ?

Actually, TakaraTomy releases just about anything Hasbro has after some tweaking. So yes, we can expect Construct-Bots over there and the "dumbed down" TF toys for the new movie. They have kids there too, you know?

Rated X wrote:Even robot heroes and rescue bots. I always assumed their kids stuff was kaybaya figures and arms microns in coin operated candy machines. In other words, stuff that adults like too. Just my guess from what i see on these front page stories...

I said "just about". I could see Rescue Bots being imported for the heck of it though All in all, despite having a larger portfolio of lines especially for us collectors (like Bandai does), TakaraTomy is still a toy company and Hasbro's analog in Japan, thus they're paying at least as much attention to kids as Hasbro does.

Back on topic, I'm a bit surprised nobody said anything about the gator resembling Skullcruncher a bit with the window in its head.

The whole comic is based on the G1 episode City of Steel where the Decepticons turn Prime's body into an Alligatorcon. The last panel even shows Prime's severed arm firing at random.
