Ditto, but personally I'll wait and see if Hasbro will put him out.

A lot of that Henkei stuff looked really good too.

I am getting MP-08 but if Hasbro does a domestic release that would make my year. My Japanese is not the best.

Man, every time I see MP Grimlock I want him more, and I wanted him from the beginning.

Henkei Smokescreen is a lighter blue than I was hoping for, but it still looks better than the Hasbro one. I'd hoped it would match the G1 version... maybe it's the lighting.

MP Grimlock does look fantastic. I go up and down with regards to alt modes for MP's. Sometimes wish they had updated Grimlock to have a more anatomically correct T rex mode though, and for the Seekers, perhaps an F-22 instead, though the current F-15 mold is still excellent. Still, Grimlock is awesome though, more than likely be picking him up

Henkei Dinobot is MUCH closer to cartoon accurate, I may actually get this guy now.

I am very happy with his revised paint work.

I hope so. I was really digging Henkei Smokescreen but he looks too powder puff blue in that shot.

Leave it to Takara to do Dinobot right. I am also interested in Red Alert.

Naaa...gotta have some accent in there. Two colors gets boring. I do hope they release him in the US...

Henkei Hot Shot looks the D's Bs. I'll bet he doesn't have the "JAam" licence plate though. That saddens me.

Beautiful, beautiful toys...

Red Alert came out excellent, and I do like the look of Smokescreen without the yellow. Still wanting to see pics of the other Minibot set, the one with Cliffjumper and Outback.
I told the fire to go **** itself, and it did.

MISP preferred, but will consider opened NM/Complete, especially for older figures. Lots of TFs for trade! Please PM any inquiries, serious interest only!

glad I put Hot Shot on Preorder. But I still want the Hasbro one to play with, and keep the Henkei one MIB.
The blue is lighter on Henkei Smokescreen, but the colors are a little more correct than the Hasbro one, but still I like mine's just fine.

I really want the Henkei Warpath, but these will only be available in the set, won't they? I actually prefer Hasbro's Wheelie so I didn't want to get all Henkeis.
