TakaraTomy Website Update: Metroplex & Universe Ultra

I'm pretty disappointed with these slightly modified universe figures! The price tag is rediculous! $55 BUCKS! I didn't like paying the standard 25 dollars over here in the states for hasbro's version. The only Takara figure worth buying is Onsault because of his paint and thats it. Power glide is molded in red plastic which doesn't require a doubled price tag, but if it was painted then it's a must buy. Silverbolt is a disappiontment in it's self for the fact that his transformation is too simple. I love the look of him in robot mode, but just feel jipped. A simple swap of colored plastic doesn't seem to justify a second purchase for such a character. I know alot of people don't dig on the chrome Takara usaully uses, but I think it would have helped if placed right. Oh and Metroplex is a must buy and a half!

Will the Takara versions also have the electronics of the Hasbro version?

Henkei Powerglide reminds me of Classics Blades.

Huh.

Hmmm... The only Encore figure left is City Guardian Omega Supreme and he should be out any day now. I can't believe there is no word on the next reissue. Very Strange

Indeed

I'm really hoping for Scorponok or Overlord.

I'd like a Targetmaster Cyclonus & Scourge 2 pack, personally.

It would suck if Encore ended.
