That means Road Rage is gonna be taller than all the boys.
September can't come fast enough.

No kidding. He's supposed to be one of the squatter ones, being no taller than the likes of Prowl and Red Alert (maybe even a smidge shorter than those two).Cobotron wrote:Wow! He is tall.

The hood popping is a nice reference to Make Tracks.
And the shot of the three together reminds me of this frame:

Case in point. His head stands above those of Sideswipe and Prowl when all three should be of equal height.Cyberpath wrote:
Why do I get the feeling that Tracks would be properly squatter had Hasui-san designed him instead of Kobayashi-san.

Look where his right foot is in relation to Sideswipe's feet.
I suggest holding the nerd rage until a photo pops up with all three of them in an even, straight line.

His foot might be forward, but they appear to be standing shoulder to shoulder and Tracks are definitely higher than Sideswipe's.
Also didn't notice before but Raul is pretty tiny! Corvettes aren't very tall cars and he can't even see over the top. I'm not sure he could see over the steering wheel either if he was driving.
I assume Tracks still doesn't come with the front gun that comes with Road Rage.

Well I'm not mad at all. Tracks could come packed with a sack of skunk poop, and I'd still be all over him.Deathsanras wrote:I suggest holding the nerd rage until a photo pops up with all three of them in an even, straight line.
You're right. It could be a case of forced perspective though.

It's not forced perspective-he is taller, plain and simple. And I'm pretty sure non of us were mad, just stating a fact and then discussing it.
Dunno if I'd take the skunk poop though, Cobotron

That's RACIST! Raoul is as American as you can get (And the Old Gipper gave them blanket amnesty back in 1984-1985. As for Tracks though, was he and the other Autobots registered with the folks at Area 51?
Now the TFs, Autobots or Decepticons are the REAL illegal Aliens (so is Superman, J'onn J'onzz etc etc)!

It's nice to have confirmation that he does come with the front flight mode gun first seen with Road Rage. Probably no stand for Road Rage since she's 500JPY less than Tracks.

Would be a shame because imo she looks way much better than Tracks. To me she is the first truly impressive fembot toy.

Will be a nice upgrade from my generations Tracks (who's a bit tubby).

I didn't even know it was given a September release date. BBTS just says 3rd quarter.

All Takara Transformers have specific release dates just like DVD, games and other similar releases have here in the US.

Most Transformers products from Takara drop on the 4th Thursday of the month, if I recall correctly.
I'm concerned about Tracks and Road Rage because Q-Tracks has been delayed since June with no release date in sight. I keep assuming it's because they're pushing Q-Tracks back to be released the same month as Masterpiece Tracks, but after this news I'm a bit concerned that there's a bigger problem at hand between Takara and General Motors/Chevrolet that is delaying the release of these products. Hopefully things are worked out soon.

I've been waiting for Q-Tracks. If it helps BBTS says that's coming in October

It was June. Then July. Then August. Then September. Then October. It doesn't help ... just want to see it released!

September is still part of the 3rd quarter. Gives the wallet a chance to rest though. This will probably delay Rr too.
