Of note: It seems that the Transformers Legends line uses both the US and Japanese names on the packaging. Observe:

- In the Latin alphabet we have "Optimus Primal"
- In Japanese kana, we have コンボイ (konboi), or "Convoy"

Same goes for Rattrap: "Rattrap" in English, but ラットル (rattoru) or Rattle in Japanese. The next one will be Sky-Byte vs. ゲルシャーク (gerushāku) or Gelshark. :lol:

That is WEIRD!!! Which names do we use to refer to them officially? Have this ever happened before, with two different names written in two different languages?

I don't think so, this is fairly unique. Even back in G1/G2, each region (UK, France, Italy, Spain, Benelux) had their own names, but also their own packaging.

I countered this problem for now by formatting the release names as "JP Name" / "US Name" if they're different. Thankfully, it only applies to the three I already mentioned: Jetfire is still "Jetfire" in Japanese.

Ya I never liked the mouth hole, even in the show, and the weird demon mask thing was so strange and cool. Mine fell off and was never heard from again.
I was hoping this release would be the original so I could get a fresh one with the mask. My old one is getting a bit rickety, due to the fact that I love him so.

I get why they're releasing this one though, show accurate and all.
Just glad folks will have the chance to get him if they haven't all ready.
He is one bot everyone should have in their stash.

Only in the eyes and mouth. The rest of him looks more like he's been yellowed.

Hasbro's copper is a bit closer to the cartoon colors than Takara's yellow tan.

You know, this is impossible, right? Beast wars figures can't be remade in a superior way using modern engeneering. Just imagine if they'd remade, let's say, Rhinox, Rattrap, and Waspinator. How would they manage that?

You know I'm divide on the separate mold thing because optimus primal was a pretty great troy and he stands out even today. But I also believe that Hasbro and Takara do a half assed job appealing to collectors and enthusiast. Maybe a thrid Party will come along and honor him the right way.

I think Takara's Windblade is hands down better than Hasbro's, but I'm still debating on which version of Arceee & Chromia is better... I need to wait to have both versions in hand before deciding.

I'm already set on going Takara for Arcee and Windblade (even though I've had Hasbro Windblade coming to me from an earlier BBTS purchase), but I'm not certain about Chromia yet. On the one hand, Takara's Chromia looks a lot nicer, but on the other hand, Hasbro's Chromia is more comic-accurate.

TFW2005's SydneyY translated a couple of pages from the latest Figure King magazine. Arcee was designed by Hironori Kobayashi (MP-11, MP-22, Evasion Mode Prime, etc.)

Arcee is the first female Transformers character who was part of a main cast - in Japan she's known for her active role in the “2010” series. The focus of her character design was on the feminine appearance, and was too difficult to recreate as a toy with the technology available at that time. There was a plan of producing her as a Headmaster, but that did not materialize either. Mr. Kobayashi, who is responsible for this product took extra care to perfectly realize the screen accurate transformation process and proportions. Mr. Oshima corroborated from the early planning stage. They did not compromise on any details on her feminine style.
(An interview with Mr. Kobayashi will be featured in the next issue.)

Thanks Cyberpath! And to those arm chair know it alls fyi Kobayahi was the winner of the kit bash contest in the Japanese version of Botcon......the Legendary Arcee herself. from there on after, Kobayashi has risen to his place of stature in Takara (Mr. Binaltech to Mr. MP). Nice to hear the belly achers complain about Arcee but her design comes from the "One" himself!

And even when you remove the skeevy aspects, Kiss Players DID have two very interesting storylines within itself. One focusing on the formation of the EDC and an anti-Transformer movement, and one for the fans of the multiverse full of so much fanwank and spanning every pre-2007 series's universe, even creating an origin story for both Beast Wars II's Angolmois and Car Robots's Brave Maximus.

So then Is it wrong I've never had a problem with kiss players? It's not like I liked it, my reaction's just been "oh that's a thing". I genuinely don't understand the pearl clutching/think of the children reaction to it. I mean it's skeevy sure, but it's not like it can hurt anyone, it's toys and drawing with words next to them.

It means your are more open minded than others. Yuki's art on how he depicts female is nothing new in the land of the rising sun. Heck, they are more than willing to push it to just within the boundaries of PG to R. If the "critics" just stopped and read more to the story then they'll realize in had a lot of good merits to the retcon.

Btw, try searching for the movie posters of the 1950 sci fi B movies and you'll see how T and A things were back then.

"W-What do you think being human means? That’s what we do. We make questionable choices. Sometimes out of those decisions come the most amazing things. When he drew Kiss Players, it was for edginess. That was it. That was why. For shock effect. That was him making a questionable choice. Without it his other good art wouldn't be here. Even if you've got no faith in him, I’m asking to do what I’d do. I’m asking to look at all the junk and see the treasure. You gotta have faith, guys. In what his art can be."

Depictions of characters who appear under aged, in sexual positions, are illegal in Canada. Dunno what the law is in the US. So Japan can keep this all they want.

It became related because Yuki was also part of Arcee's design team. People are making a mountain out of a molehill out of that. Hence I needed to point out together with Sabr that aside from the KISSPlayer work by Yuki, he is also an excellent Mech Designer and it shows.

Ah yes, that. A good job he did of it too, with whatever input was his (which I sort of suspect to be mostly the facial design).

Fellow fan, and video reviewer, Felzbug, has posted a set of new video reviews featuring LG01 Rattle (Rattrap) and LG02 Optimus Primal. These are the same as the US molds, but feature a show accurate deco that strives as much as possible to be the closest to the actual CGI renders.

Here are our galleries of the Beast Wars Reborn Optimus Primal (upon which this release is based) and Generations Rattrap.

And now, without any further ado, the video reviews:
