    Axalon is a straaange name...
    Not in general, but for this mold very much. If anything it should be called "Nemesis"
    OR "Depth Charge" because his colours are clearly an homage to Universe Depth Charge.

    Axalon would work extremely well as a pre-earth mode uni depth charge.

    At one time I was only interested in G2 Megatron but now it's iffy. He should have been a larger class figure . I'm thinking of the hefty G2 version. I may buy him in clearance. I already have molds fore most of the other figures and the original Classics version of Hot Rod is good enought for me. Plus I bought MP TRU Rodimus a month ago so I don't need anymore versions of that character either. I don't need another MP Starscream either. The only real improvement I see is that he lacks the hip plates and he seems to have another head. Not worth paying over 100 dollars or more for. I paid 40 to 50 for my WM version years ago and then turned around and bought MP Skywarp in clearance for $15.

    I do really like what they've done with Thunderwing, however, if he ever goes on sale or something I might get him. Pretty content with the Hasbro version. As for the rest, I may wait for the Hasbro molds of the other new ones... And definitely NOT feeling that Rodimus. Without the chrome spoilers, He just doesn't look good for a Takara/Tomy release. Now give us chime AND metallic finish, and I'm sold.

    G2 Megs will go on sale and he will be mine.

    I'm glad other folks have yet another chance at the Rodimus mold. Though with the Henkei re-release, no one has much reason to complain about their chances at an awesome and Protector-ready version.

    Hope FP makes an allowance and issues new wing extensions for folks who need them for this United version.

    Not sure what's going on with the pricing on Unicron, Primal, and Beast Megs. The count of pieces per case for Unicron matches with more expensive toys like the two-packs and Voyagers of United, which makes me think he's going to include something extra. But the casepack counts for Primal and Megs match with the carded deluxe level toys. I suspect there may be added parts with these three, assuming the case counts provided are wrong for Primal and Megs. And if so, I would lay even money on the add-ins being Transmutate parts.

    However, if the pricing for Megs and Primal, or even Unicron, turns out to be wrong, and they are released at normal carded figure pricing for United, I will refund the difference.

    I preordered the windcharger 2 pack when they showed up on amiami the other day, everything else is an easy skip.

    Wish I had found windcharger in stores so I wouldn't have to buy the jpn version. 15 bucks per figure for a scout is a bit much imo, but def better than what he sells for on ebay.
