    Very nice looking art. I wonder if FunPub will carry it like they did the SG SW/Blaster set.

    ...Where is the preorder? I must preorder this NOW ^^
    Also, I hope they keep putting out 'diaclone' recolors of toys in the classics molds. There were several diaclones out there, and just about all of them have classics/modern versions of the toys that I would happily buy ^^

    Woo hoo!

    With so many Classics molds available, they could crank out a ton of Diaclone/pre-Transformers redecos. Interested to see where they take this.

    yay....
    Like the concept, but been done already, there has to be some diaclone or other predecessor to TF that has yet to be touched, enough repeats..

    5500 Yen. I bought Perceptor for $8. Mind as well paint it black and make my own to save some money. True no new head sculp but money saved :)

    Not really a fan of that mold, though if I didn't already have Perceptor I'd get it. Easy pass for me.

    Argh! I thought this was another Million Press exclusive like Ghost Starscream, Stepper and Artfire where you have to send in a coupon in Japan to get the figure. Looks like Magnificus is straight up E-Hobby...

    I like him - he's got a bit of a Soundblaster Vibe to him. But then I do like the original a lot too.
