Because Hasbro's main focus in kids who destroy figures. Takara's main focus is adults who collect them. So we get Kreo.

I think I'll wait striker OP to be repainted to buster treatment...

It wouldn't necessarily need to be complicated, repaint a mini-con to go with the PCC or a Mech Tech Weapon. It just seems a bit of a missed opportunity.

:sad: Ahh come on Hasbro. Are you serious??!!! Why can't they release this in the US??!! Takara ALWAYS get the good shiznit!!

Anybody out there that could help me acquire a set? I'd be very grateful.

how much do these cost in US money?

3000 yen is roughly $40.

You're welcome!

I'm getting a bit tired of all the ROTF Leader Prime milking. We have that awesome new Stealth Force leader Prime version. The Wing thing Prime. All cost an arm and a leg.

You have Ultimate Prime in the US, which doesn't fit in any scale. Still no Leader Megatron / Shockwave. I hoped we would get voyager Crankcase and the other one that transforms into an animal.

Instead I see cyberverse, and a Kreo line???

Hasbro should release a ROTF Prime with the Stealth Force upgrade set + Wings + Buster cannon and these 2 blades all in one set for a normal price!
That's what they should do!

Yes cause, that wouldn't cost an arm and a leg.

Take into consideration the promo entitles you to get the blade for FREE, when you purchase $40 bucks of DOTM toys. Which is quite worth it, getting a free blade with 2 voyagers ETC.

Hahaha love that quote from the movie. Nice paraphrase!

Well, I just pre-ordered a set for my Jetwing Optimus.

I'm trying to order either a Jetwing or a pre-order of the Striker so I can also get the battle blades but I can't seem to do so and I don't have a means to adjust japanese characters to english. I must be doing something wrong. Any suggestions? I'm ready to purchase one of these bad boys but hitting a wall on how to do so where I can read the site. I've tried translators but they don't adjust the graphics and those sites are nearly all graphic. I only get a few headings and I can't do a search and get any results I can understand Any suggestions for this language confused transformers fan?? Thanks in advance!
