Looks like there might be a little clip on the roof that it could possible be inserted into.mooncake623 wrote:Where does his gun go in alt mode? hm...

Streaker is looking great especially with that clear sun roof effect, a nice way to differetiate (word of the day!) him from his car brothers!

Yes they do (please forgive the use of a TFW pic but it was the clearest head shot I could find, I will do my penance later)

That means my RK order should ship out soon...

Yesterday I noticed that Prowl eyes are painted light blue, kind of like Hasbro's MP-10. I love that.

Prowl, Bluestreak and UN31 United Beast Megatron for $155 shipped. Glad I went with hlj instead of BBTS on this one, saved quite a few $$$

The only minor issue that I have with Bluestreak's head sculpt is that his mouth is close. It would have been nice if he looked like he was talking. I mean he is called Bluestreak for a reason.

Tell me about it! hlj.com takes priority for all my MP purchases from now on. Also, that is $155 AUD, so in USD take another $5 - $10 off.megatronus wrote:Arctorro wrote:Just shipped my hlj.com order!

Too bad I already put all my MP preorders in at TFsource... all the way through Ultra Magnus...

Shame, I have Wheeljack, Bumblebee and Ultra Magnus pre-ordered with BBTS just to guarantee I get them and when/if HLJ put them up I will just cancel the BBTS pre-orders.megatronus wrote:Arctorro wrote:Tell me about it! hlj.com takes priority for all my MP purchases from now on.

TFsource also has them up for preorder.

TFsource was reacting to BBTS's announcements so they don't lose out on pre-orders. I don't believe Takara has officially announce wheeljack, bumblebee, or Ultra Magnus. That is my understanding anyway.

Congrats. I've got a somewhat smaller POL, so I'm waiting for some more stuff to drop ito it before hitting 'ship' on it. I can wait, though.

Can't remeber the last time I was this excited to get receive a figure.
Posted by robotmel on October 31st, 2013 @ 6:12pm CDT
I couldnt help but think of Ironhide and Ratchet when I saw this picture recently...
Posted by Arctorro on October 31st, 2013 @ 10:49pm CDT
Didn't like the way hlj.com packaged them though... There was zero packaging materials between the box and the figures Going to keep my Smokescreen pre-order, but if that is shipped the same way I'll be going back to BBTS. The higher price will be worth the piece of mind.

I think Smokescreen has the sexiest vehicle mode of the 3, but Streak has the sleekest robot coloration - he just looks good. I'll probably feel differently once I have him in hand, but Smokescreen's face looks slightly derpy (despite being slavish to G1).
Posted by Dead Metal on November 25th, 2013 @ 9:56am CST
Bluestreak, just looks like a neat robot, his alt-mode kibble isn't as noticeable as with Prowl or Smokescren.

They haven't been officially announced by Takara yet, it's only some retailers opening pre-emptive preorders. I'm guessing they'll wait until after the release of Smokescreen to make more announcements, since the Fan Choice poll has been the main focus of their MP marketing at the moment.
Smokescreen does look derpy in robot mode, but that's how he looks. I'm still getting him but he'll probably be the one I keep in vehicle mode out of all three. I do hope he still has the standard shoulder cannons and they're just folded out of the way, however, because those big tall ones look seriously silly, albeit cartoon-accurate. Can't wait to get him regardless. I already have some funds sitting in my Paypal account waiting.

I think the next one who need the masterpiece treatment should be TRACKS!!!
