    Edit: After further discussion, I've learned that this series is called the Model Comprehend series because they'll be working with the company Model Comprehend that does third party Gunpla and the like. Here's their homepage:

    模é*‚真悟官方网站

    So, just got word from Iron Factory that their IF-EX:06-10 will be part of a different series called "Model Comprehend". Here's is the description that they passed on:

    IronFactory:

    @KumaStyle Model Comprehend(模魂真悟) We are making toys now!Model Comprehend & Ironfactory to carry out a comprehensive strategic cooperation.NO.1: IF-EX05[Miko for Irontitan] Mini size! All painting!

    NO.2: IF-EX06-10, coming soon.Iron factory will cooperate with more third party

    I can't say much on who the characters are for the M/C series but I can say that they will be new characters/molds and not repaints or anything.

    Not sure if I'm willing to spend money on Legends scale figures that are new characters.


    Guess I'll hafta wait and see how they look.

    Hope we get a reveal of the line-up soon. Their first releases have been an interesting mix of characters.

    "New" like Perceptor won't be one of the next 5 (he'll probably be 3P or something like Soundwave is, just using him as an example since he isn't numbered yet) since he is from the Blaster mold. At least that is how I read Kuma's phrasing. I don't think it is going to be original characters like Steel Core.

    Ex-07 definitely has treads for legs. That's all I got.

    Devastator is my call. I reversed the image, and enhanced it as best I could. Now assume its missing one bot intentionally; say one that has a distinct left foot; and then it all fits. Two shown have tank style treads for shins [Scavenger/Bonecrusher numbers 7 & 8]. An you get your answer fast, Devastator. One ; number 6; also has large wheels on the sides of the lower shin that are VERY visible in the enhanced image [which I would assume to most likely be scrapper or long haul]. but regardless, Devastator is the only combiner that has 2 bots with those distinct lower tread style designed legs.

    I'm on the Devastator guess bandwagon too (as seen in the Wind Blade thread I think it was). Their figures have been Metroplex based, and Devastator is the only combiner I would really identify with Metroplex. Defensor a little due to the episode where First Aid deserted, but not really. Besides, no Protectobots have treads. I was thinking it was Mixmaster missing, but your are right that Hook being the missing one makes more sense. I was having trouble placing #6 because I was thinking of G1 Long Haul whose legs were the truck bed instead of the Giant/Herc design.

    I will go:

    6 - Long Haul
    7 - Bone Crusher
    8 - Scavenger
    9 - Mixmaster
    10 - Scrapper
    11 - Hook

    My only concern is that Kuma specifically said the partnership was for 6-10 which makes the "missing" #11 less likely, but it doesn't concern me enough to back off my guess on Devastator.

    Yea! I actually updated that thread to where what was changing was the paint on the thing on the back of her head.

    What? They're G1 characters... just not ones they've previously done.. I was just meaning to say new molds. I'll correct the main post.

    I didn't see this: Thanks for the assist!

    Hm, aside from Windblade, who would make the most sense to go with a Metrotitan?

    I didn't see an update... are you sure it took? Or did you only update some old post rather than putting something at the end?

    Either way, disappointing news. I was really hoping they'd give her a less Kewpie face. Or at least the option for a less Kewpie face. The mold seems great, but for that bit... but maybe what they're really teasing is a whole line of Kewpie miniature Transformers she fits in with.
