    The Jetfire/Jetstorm box was already posted in the other topic, but the Cheetor pic is new.

    Yup. The new Cheetor is finally a good toy. All it took was a correctly transformed photo and what appear to be the final colors looking more like the original BW toy's colors.


    Cyclonus' unpainted parts are going to be unpainted when released? Sure looks that way. Those parts will probably be silver chrome on the Henkai version, the face inlcuded!

    I'm calling it now, folks.

    Cheetor looks nice, but that one's probably for my brother.
    I'd be a bit disappointed if Cyclonus ends up with those unpainted parts. If so, I might just have to get the Henkei version instead. Providing that that one has better paint apps.

    Indeed. And screw you all who thought I was wrong in saying the other one was a final testshot lol

    Cheetor's still mistransformed though, albeit to a lesser degree. His feet should be flat. Instead, he's on his tiptoes.

    You know... it's amazing how just moving his arms up like they're supposed to be and giving him some better paint apps make a lot of difference with Cheetor.

    Also, is that the first picture we've seen of Cyclonus' partner in robot mode?

    Well, I dunno if Cyclonus' face looks painted.

    I just checked with the pic on TF08, and the plastic colors all line up.

    It may be, it may not be.

    The main thing that bugs me about Cheetor now is his harelip.

    Although when has there been a Cheetor toy with a good face?

    Cheetor looks MUCH better now.

    And Titanium Cheetor's face is quite good.

    Beast Wars and Beast Machines are pretty separated in my mind, so I often forget to include one with the other. Don't take this as me not liking Beast Machines though.

    Haha yeah it looks like I'm going to eat my words. Surprising though, because it just looks like off-color plastic instead of intentional.
