    ;)  All good, just poking fun. All I was saying is that MPM Barricade will likely blow the Human Alliance fig out of the water. Just like MPM Optimus seems to be a huge step up from the classic ROTF leader.

    YES !!! Hopefully it is even better as the HA. Good thing there doing 2007 designs first. And then... someday... they will finally do TLK designs.

    What they should to do to make a great toy is:
    -Having REAL hands
    -Smaller torso
    -Bigger crotch (seriously, some of the toys of barricade look strange with the small crotch, that's why the DOTM deluxe was kinda meh compared with the previous ones).
    -Having Frenzy
    -The mace
    -Less HA kibble

    It's not that hard Hasbro.

    Wow harsh for no freakin reason. NEWSFLASH They Generations toys are definitely NOT Hasbro's request they are sold in japan ar japan markets. Just cuz we buy them through 2ndary markets doesn't really mean shit. And even if that was true they wouldn't tell us that. But it's not because the Henkei/Generations/Legends line is for Japan. Also like I said I JUST READ (except this was a few days back now) that Japan has a platform you can buy the new releases on.

    Anyways.... moving on lol

    Oh lawd. This is the beginning of something great...you will have to forgive my immaturity

    Err back on topic. I agree that older Barricade figures have always been kinda top heavy, so a smaller torso would help. At the same time, I rather they deploy Frenzy from the chest instead of having him like sit in the car mode. That mace/wheel saw blade is a must, and less kibble seems doable

    Really hoping this one comes with molded translucent headlights, rearlights (unlikely, see MPM-03), and barlights. He'd be perfection at that point

    One thing I don't get is why the listing for barricade has his price as 94 instead of 79 like bumblebee. Could it be because he has more accessories or something like that cause other than that I don't see why they would increase the price like that

    So.... now you have a graphic example of how the vast size of the US economy means most manufactured goods are cheaper in America than they are in the rest of the world

    I myself won't dip too deeply into the MPM line, but for Barricade, I'd make an exception. I looooove Mustangs.

    Hope so. I'll be attending to look at the new merch and pick up the Headmaster Black Convoy figure.
