    I wonder how many of Unicron's details are stickers... Is that little claw thing his Arms Micron?

    Ironhide looks good. Glad I ordered the AM version so he'll have more differences from Kup.

    Unicron looks amazing! :thumb  his alt mode's a bit silly but they did try to give him an alt mode at least. The armour mode looks better on Prime actually.

    Ironhide looks sweet! :thumb  Though I still hate that he only has one cannon. I'd like him to have two on each arms. I'm still going to get him though either way.

    Soundwave looks impressive!

    Looking at the elbow hinges, it looks like the backs of those arm wad things might be hollow, since there's a pretty big empty space visible right under the hinge, and there doesn't seem to be anything on the backs since they come to such a sudden stop at the sides. I hope I'm wrong about that.

    I also really hope he has hands, because those arm wad things are ******ed.

    Looks like his micron turns into a little mole tank with a drill for a nose. cool.

    Does anyone know about the other cassettes that are sold separate from Soundwave.

    When do they come out?

    Which characters are there?

    Does anyone have pic for all of them?

    Am I just seeing things or does Ironhide's torso look incredibly hollow?

    Unicron's tempting, and the MPs are awesome.

    You're not seeing things.

    Ironhide's looking worse with every new picture I see. The shoulder kibble sits way too high to look well-integrated; his torso, thighs, and upper arms look way too skinny, and the chest is latter than Calista Flockhart's. So much got lost in translation because he's a deluxe. Is it too much to ask for a Prime Ironhide toy that actually looks like this?:

    Did you see the Kup review earlier? His legs as shown here and his arms which aren't shown here are are much worse when it comes to being hollow.

    Are those...Decepticon emblems on Unicron? Hahahahahaha! Bravo, Takara!

    And that Ironhide looks like shit. I'll likely pass on it when he sees release.

    As far as I know, on the show he didn't have any hands, so the 'wads' are probably all there is

    This, I had high hopes towards his Deluxe class figure.
    He stray way too far from his CGI design for my liking, which is odd for me since I own and love PRID Bulkhead.

    Unicron looks pretty cool - even though the features of him having an alternate mode and being able to combine with Optimus or Megatron are rather dumb. (Also,...is he another Japan exclusive?)

    And man, oh man, MP Soundwave looks incredible!!!

    So underwhelmed by Unicron's combined mode. I remember the original design to be much more appealing and form an exoskeleton that would only fit the Prime.
    and that AM Ironhide seems to have exact same headsculpt as Kup. Does that mean we may not see NA release?

    Unicron's robot mode looks great, but his "alternate" modes just look like a mess of parts.
