    TAKARA to release the new Deluxe BW10 Anniversay Primal & Megatron molds?

    This screen cap was found on the "Golden Disk" included with the BWR-01 set under a section titled "new product". The section requires a password in order to continue viewing. Unfortunately, I don't read much Japanese so I can't figure out how to get the password.

    Is TAKARA planning to release the new Primal and Megs molds in the near future?

    Also from the BWR-01 CD-ROM. New BWX Cheetor and Scorponok molds or something else entirely?

    With the Destron force chip in for scale, I'd imagine the Cheetor and Scorponok are small die-cast pack-in bonuses (like the spaceships) for the new mold leaders.

    So the crappy Primal and Megs gets released in both territories, but we have to pay import prices for the good ones? *sigh*

    Hope so, if that means we'll get a War Within Lio Convoy and a Gojulas Grimlock. :D

    LMAO. Dang, not even a good picture of them yet and the Takara versions are the "good ones" I hope they are exact down to the last pin.

    Um, I think he meant Japan gets the Hasbro ones shown at Toy Fair and the retooled originals (aka "the good ones"), while we only get the crappy Hasbro ones and have to import the retooled originals. Has nothing to do with Takara's CyberBeastWarstron versions being better than Hasbro's.

    I for one share the sentiment.

    Here's another pic from the Golden Disk. A collage of box art used for Hasbro's BW 10 Anniversay figures with silhouettes of the new Primal and Megatron mold box art in the background.

    The same pic now with text overlayed for anyone who's interested in translating.

    The Collector's Club should get with Hasbro and see about offering Takara's Primal and Megatron set in their store. Either that or maybe Hasbro outta offer them via their ToyShop. If Takara's gonna offer both versions, so should Hasbro.

    Hope it'll be a twopack, I'd probably be able to get them much easier then the Hasbro versions (europe, weeee! :rolleyes:  ).
