Hasbro's MP Prowl costs more than Takara's MP Prowl, even when import prices are factored into the cost.durroth wrote:ScottyP wrote:Mindmaster wrote:I hoped someone at least mentioned Masterpiece Star Saber... I'd like to own him when he's released, but without paying import prices.
If Prowl is any indication, you should pay import prices
What's wrong with the domestic prowl release? I thought there were no major changes between them reported so far. Has something come up?

And now, the moment you've all been waiting for... official images for the newly-revealed Generations: Combiner Wars Aerialbots and Stunticons! The Aerialbots, comprised of traditional team members Silverbolt, Air Raid, Skydive, and Firefly (originally Fireflight. Darn those trademark laws!) are joined by Alpha Bravo (a very Vortex-like character replacing Slingshot) and honorary Aerialbot Powerglide (revealed at BotCon last month), who is revealed to also transform into a weapon capable of being wielded by the Aerialbots' combined mode, Superion!
Meanwhile, their Decepticon counterparts, the Stunticons, are comprised of Motormaster (a redeco and heavy retool of the previously-revealed Voyager Optimus Prime), Breakdown, Dead End, Dragstrip, and newcomer Offroad, an apparent duo-homage of Generation One Ruckus and Wildrider, whose vehicle mode deco Offroad's vehice mode is based on. Also included in Team Stunticon is an as-of-yet-named Legends-class sports car, rumored to be Blackjack, based and named after the Generation One character of the same name, who forms the chestplate of the Stunticons' combined mode, Menasor!

The new series looks good. I wonder if it will be a darker storyline than TF Prime.
If you want to know what I mean by darker watch the show Young Justice. Its for kids.

And to go along with that batch of Generations images, here are some official stock photos for the upcoming Robots in Disguise animated series! The batch includes Legion Optimus Prime and Strongarm (new Autobot character), Hyper Change Bumblebee, One-Step Underbite (new Decepticon character) and Sideswipe, and Warrior (Deluxe size) Bumblebee - who is, we remind you, the main star of the show. Check them all out below!

Next year will be a busy year for me. I'm personally not bothered by any member changes as I plan my collection around what looks visually appealing to me...Plus I freaking love gesalts of all kinds.

Interesting... it looks like the combiner's hands and feet are the same part that can transform. I love Superion, and I'm seriously debating whether or not to get the Stunticons to display separately.

Honestly, I'm just glad they aren't trying to force the integration of the appendages into the figures themselves. They tried that with Fall of Cybetron Bruticus, and we all know how well that turned out.

I am liking the direction of the new deluxe. The style and details Hasbro is pulling off are really something. I know it comes at the cost of more simple transformations. But I am more than willing to pay that price if the figures are look more complete and like actual action figures like they do here. It will be an exciting year in 2015 indeed

Hmmmm. Alpha Bravo doesn't look anything like Universe Ro-tor.

Motormaster looks WAY better in that mold than Optimus does. Though I wonder, if Optimus is using a Combiner Torso mold, will he be able to combine with the Arialbots? Will the Limb-bots be modular "Scramble City" style?
OR are we going to see updates to Prime's drones from TF: Energon?

You have to know where to look. Some folks managed to get theirs between $45-$60 total. Hasbro's MP Prowl is gonna have a $70 base price, which TRU will undoubted up the price even further.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Hasbro's MP Prowl costs more than Takara's MP Prowl, even when import prices are factored into the cost.durroth wrote:ScottyP wrote:Mindmaster wrote:I hoped someone at least mentioned Masterpiece Star Saber...

Sometimes there isn't enough WANT in the world.
Yeah, changing Slingshot to a copter is a tough choice but I suspect this might be a marketing choice (mums not wanting to buy a toy plane for their kids when "you already have enough planes"). From the Geewun perspective it's a whiff but from the objective perspective of having a slightly less homogenous looking set of figures on shelves it's smart, and there's already more than enough homage in these sets to go around. The other four Aerialbots look mouth-wateringly good AND homage-y.
The same for Wildrider. I am reaaaaaaaally hoping for a Technobot set.

ergh.... am i the only one who is sick and tired of the same Bumblebee=Camaro/movie type mold all over again?
i mean, come on, even the new alt mode's angles and proportions look eerily similar to TF:Prime Bumblebee, who is itself a reimagining of the movieverse Bumblebee. and look at the bot modes of the new series, even the faces look similar to TF:Prime. can't Hasbro come up with something more original???
i really went from being giddy at the 2007 movie reintroduction of Bumblebee to being frustrated at each iteration as it went further into the series... and when the TF:Prime Bee came too close to Bayverse style, even mimicking the no-voice box gimmick, i was absolutely devastated. yep, i really really hated the TF:Prime Bee and his human compatriot.
if the new Bee will get his voice box scrambled anytime in the new series, i'm gonna be all over the place.

It's the same guy. RID is the sequel to Prime. Bumblebee having a body in RID similar to his Prime body is no less strange than the body he has in Rescue Bots.

the RID figures have potential. the generations figures look great too. probably not going to be combined though. i like the individual bot modes better.

With the theme of the line being "Combiner Wars", it's very well possible that the remaining toys are gonna be more Combiner molds. 16 Deluxes and 6 Voyagers are coming out of this, after all.RiddlerJ wrote:Would anyone be up for Protectabot retools of the combiners:

Actually, there could be a chance for an Abominus and a Piranacon. I would also like a Devastator, Defensor, Bruticus, Computron, and Monstructor set. There can't be two combiners for one mini-Generations series. I don't think.

Not me.
Bring on Abominus and Piranacon!
...You're the exception. You weirdo.

Just noticed something about the Superion image. He's got two Fireflys (Fireflies?) as his arms, and no trace of Air Raid.

So, Warrior Bumblebee is a heavily retooled Vehicon... Cool!
Also, loving Superion even more now that the individual bots have been revealed. I also appreciate how the combiner ports in their chests were designed to actually blend in and look good. This is exciting.
