We may not need to, depending on her size. Moon already got a toy, transforming too:

Around the size of a Basic, so if Artemis is tall enough, they're in scale

Just keep her away from Starscream and Scuba.

Okay. That little Artemis figure is striking my inner week in the best way possible.
If there is effectively a little Moon figure too, that may just seal the deal for me to finally get a Beast Wars MP figure. Even if I never watched the original show.

Like how, should MP Silverbolt ever happen, he would come with Transmutate.

Of course not. She's not a transformers after all. Still, she do have articulation points everywhere. I just hope that she will be in scale with Lio.

Initially, when the word 'android' was thrown in as a descriptive, I assumed she wasn't. Then when you mentioned her "companion" Moon did transform, I had to check.

Moon is also an android. It was just never explained how/why he was able to transform like a Transformer.

Also, Moon is tiny compared to the Maximals, so Artemis would need to be as well (NOTE: Not my pics).

I want a clear shot of the Artemis figure next to MP Lio to see the scale.
If it's super small, a tiny transformable Moon could still be possible because Moon basically just lay on all four to "transform".

Oh i know, but I really don't want to have to track down little Moon, I'd rather just get a nice little new one with Lio!

What about an Encore reissue?

I wish, and that would be nice, but I doubt they'd do that unfortunately

Takara Transformers MP-48 Lio Convoy looked pretty cool when he was revealed. Especially when we realized that his lion head and mane transformed from cartoony organic to robotic. The price had yet to be confirmed though, but now the listing is up at Takara Tomy Mall. The price is 21600 Yen, which comes out to a little over $200 USD. While that may not be the exact price people will be buying it at (since this includes Japanese consumer tax), it is a clear indication of the price point. Be prepared to see a similar price at importers like BBTS and TFSource and something closer to the $150 mark on Amazon Japan (not including shipping and importing fees).

This item will be released at the end of February 2020. The listing also gave us many new images, which we have for you below, enjoy!




















If you want a sense of scale, here he is next to Optimus Primal, who was half the price.

This figure is a true work of art!
But I will skip, having never have owned the original nor had any emotional attachment for the character.
