    Huh, is that weathering on Bulkhead?

    Eh, all MPs had issues with one mode. In that regard this one feels right at home.

    It looks like Takara Tomy went with the mouth face and hooks for their version of Voyager class Battle Blade Optimus Prime (those are Deluxes and a scout next to him, for size reference).

    Also, it seems that TakaraTomy's release of Side Arm Sideswipe won't have the red paint on his hood/front fenders, and will have painted wheels.

    Okay it's official... I love that Leader Bulkhead. Bought.

    TFA Cybertron Ratchet is also looking good.

    The "dirty" Bulkhead looks pretty sweet. I'm not sure if it's worth the import price, but is sure is tempting.

    I hope that non-flame Sideswipe makes his way here.

    Why would they release a figure that takes a figure they're planning on releasing and gives is FEWER paint apps?

    File that hope with more Animated under 'completely impossible'.

    I'm really liking the gold parts. I wonder if this Predaking has metal parts like the other reissue. If it does I will be adding another Predaking to my collection.

    Yeah this is never going to happen. You should buy the Japanese one or learn to paint over the red. Hasbro said they had to add that to their version to make it more exciting.

    I'm sure it will as that's the version of the mold that was available for the other reissue, it's highly unlikely things have changed.
