A whole event at the show dedicated to Beast Wars's anniversary. Thank you, Japan!

Love the Supreme Commanders display as well.

Now we've got a rough idea of prices for the LG-EX figures! Next question is when and where? Were these available at this show, or are they just advertising their future release elsewhere?

These are convention exclusives, yes.

Thank you for rubbing it in. I'd almost forgotten how determined Hasbro was to punish us if we like anything other than G1. :BANG_HEAD:

You know, as much as I've always been sick of the "true fans only buy Takara" people, Hasbro seems set on vindicating them.

I'm imaging next year at 'Hascon' the exclusives will be a Mindwipe and Skullcruncher painted like Bat Optimus and Gator Megatron.

Hasbro: "Sorry were late to the party guys. But we just wanted everyone to know we loved Beast Wars just as much as the fans. We even made exclusives of our two favorite characters from the show! :-D "

I know they are convention exclusives. I wanted to know if they were available at TransFest 2016, or are they to be available at a different show later? I'm expecting the latter, as there have been now solicitations yet from the likes of TFSource or BBTS, where they definitely had some last year for LG-EX Armada Megatron and RID Scourge. I don't want to miss out on Rhinox or Waspinator at the very least.

Here's my point of confusion, then. Has TransFest already happened, or is it going to take place later on? I don't know if these news snippets have been reports of the event itself, or news about what is to be expected at the event.

So, TFSource and BBTS completely skipped out on getting these Beast Wars LG-EX figures? Crap.

Well, the Legend Commander Collection toys were con exclusives that eventually got rereleased on TakaraTomy Mall which led them to reaching other venues as well, so there's a chance that these three could too.

The Tokyo Toy Show is just round the corner - as it takes place this weekend, 11th June - and we're getting more information from Takara Tomy Transformers about their Beast Wars special celebrations, not only with the LGEX Rhinox, Waspinator, and Rattrap (Rattle), but also with some teasers about what's to come, and a potential new product reveal!

Is this in addition to rumoured MP Cheetor? Does Waspinator have a shot at the Masterpiece line? A surprise guest has also been mentioned in the update, so keep your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for more, and take the time until then to delve into Japanese Beast Wars with our first Beast Wars Tuesday update here!

The fandom would flip so many times if a MP Waspinator was announced. That figure would sell out faster than the club Punch/Counterpunch did. :MAXIMAL:

The mention of waspinator is reference to his voice actor (I'm assuming hsi japanese one) appearing at the con.


I'm guessing the prototype of MP Cheetor will be revealed.
