The Million Publishing Generations 2015 Book is now out and while one of the cool features is that it contains an order sheet to mail order exclusive Japanese Transformers toys, it also has a lot of cool content all on its own. TFW2005 member Monari now has this book and took a bunch of pictures of it with his phone. Below you will see the behind the scenes process for Generations / Unite Warriors Devastator, such as sketches and early gray models along with final photos which fellow Seibertronian Cyberpath was kind enough to provide the images they were homaging (such as commercials and G1 box art).
Below you will also find a whole bunch of photos of the upcoming MP Hot Rod and Schockwave complete with their transformation and a comic featuring both of them (and a black Rodimus).
Enjoy!

These aren't Masterpieces. These are the G1 molds in the black decos that the molds have had before. Notice how they're drawn toy-accurately compared to how MP Hot Rodimus seen in this comic is drawn show-accurately.Starsaber468 wrote:A black tracks, black hot rod, and etc was in the comic....

Still not liking Hot Rod much. Something bugs me about his proportions and the overly flat chest.
Shockwave is one of the few 'Masterpiece' figures that has really interested me but still not sure about purchasing due to high expense and the usual quality control issues with these figures.

Ah ok. I had RotF Buster Prime and the chrome stayed perfectly intact all the time I had it (before selling cos bills). Either way this is a pretty cool figure.

For Hotrod, the inclusion of the "whopper" IS the deal breaker!

The chrome would flake given the slack when you retract his leg parts.

This is not the Hot Rod we were looking for! Flat chest, huge backpack. Ugh. Nice face sculpt, but that's about the only thing that appeals to me about it.

So I finally shipped my "loot" from HLJ this past week, which arrived yesterday. I was really looking forward to this new book. These Million Publishing Transformers books are absolutely amazing. And yet, I was extremely underwhelmed by this edition. Normally, I learn something from these books, but I don't think I learned anything new about older Transformers this time around. The book also lacked the very handy comparisons of the Takara Tomy product alongside an inset of the Hasbro product, which has always been helpful with identifying variants that I might have missed or wasn't aware of. This book seemed "rushed" to me compared to previous issues. Anyone else underwhelmed by this particular issue over previous ones?

I wonder if it has anything to do with Million Publishing re-branding to Hero X? Thought I'd heard that had caused delay/rushing with this book to get it out but of course, I can't find a source on that anymore.Seibertron wrote:So I finally shipped my "loot" from HLJ this past week, which arrived yesterday.
