As of right now I'm not getting any of the Autobots (except for Hotspot),
so I'm getting both versions of the Stunticons... Already pre-ordered the Unite Warriors version.
Speaking of which:
Is there any word on the packaging for the Unite Warriors line?
Or when we might see it??

And yeah at one point, back in 2007, I too was sucked into similar conversations.
Just figured by now that would be a buried horse.
Almost as funny as this forum member who seriously attacked me and others about how stupid it was to speculate/discuss Hasbro ever releasing deluxe-sized seekers since they had been at Botcon...
Boy, he showed us... We were all IDIOTS!!!!
Anyway, just wanted to voice my surprise that people haven't been more excited about the Unite Warriors Stunticons...
I know it's not new news.
However, most of those characters haven't been given solid, non-exclusive or non-third-party dues as figures.
Offroad isn't a Sunticon, and imo, the deco's of the Unite versions are much much better.
Motormaster and Dragstrip alone were enough for me to buy.
Again, just my opinion, but Hasbro's Dragstrip is not good... The yellow-orange is not great, and the red-violet is just too much... I think I may have been okay if it were true purple... But when you look at that color (which I would almost call "Raspberry) next to purple,
again, I just can't stand it. It almost looks like it's a mistake.
Anyone else agree that this set is better than Hasbro's offerings and worth the extra $$$?
If you don't own one then go for it. If you already have the Hasbro ver, well do a "Two-face" if you can't decide.

We've seen Superion's packaging - http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/takaratomy-transformers-unite-warriors-uw01-superion-in-box/32997/Sowndwave76 wrote:Is there any word on the packaging for the Unite Warriors line?

Yeah, the trend is to show the packaging near the end of the month prior to release.

Okay, so next question:
Think the Stunticons will be packaged in alt modes as well???

With such being the case with the Airbots, I don't see why the Stuntrons wouldn't.Sowndwave76 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:We've seen Superion's packaging - http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/takaratomy-transformers-unite-warriors-uw01-superion-in-box/32997/Sowndwave76 wrote:Is there any word on the packaging for the Unite Warriors line?

Hmmmmm.... This will probably affect whether or not I keep them MISB...
Would've been more likely to do this if they were in bot modes.
Well, I haven't opened any of my Hasbro Stunticons yet...

I gotta say, they're looking a bit bland in comparison. I'm glad I got the Hasbro versions so far.
Re: New Pictures of Takara Transformers Unite Warriors Aerialbots

I could see why people would say this, but I personally really prefer when the figures resemble the cartoon versions as closely as possible.
I don't think any of the Hasbro versions look bad, except for Dragstrip.
I also think the UW vehicle modes look quite a bit better; cleaner, and again, more cartoon accurate.

Despite my Tomy preference, the domestic Hasbro releases aren't that shabby. The colors and QC imho have improved plus the Vietnamese make has a few QC issues.

The Takara Tomy Unite Warriors Superion box set, including the alternate decos of Silverbolt, Air Raid, Firefly, Skydive, and the Slingshot repaint (see the full Hasbro line-up in our galleries here), appears to be receiving an almost Masterpiece treatment: via Planet Iacon on Facebook, we have our first images of the collector coin included with the set. Check them out below!

Its cool and all, but if it cuts the price ten bucks I could do without it.

That is an interesting development, I'll give you that.
Along with Masterpiece being printed on the packaging.

But not unheard of. There's three other non-MP coins: DOTM(?)Jetwing Prime, Encore Fort Max, and Encore Devastator.Va'al wrote:That is an interesting development, I'll give you that.

hmm... you're right Japan did make coins, completely forgot about Fort Max, but was it an Amazon.jp thing? I ordered mine from BBTS and it did not come with one.

ummm, I ordered mine off amiami, it was already cheaper than any other retailer so if it doesn't come with the coin, I wont mind. But it would be a great surprise if it did.
