Thanks, Randy. I hope we get to read the interview but those tidbits are interesting. I wonder when we will have a release date and price for Ironhide. I don't remember having this much of a holdup on a fully revealed MP before...

 

Awesome! Thanks so much for the info thus far, I'd really appreciate it if you're able to do a translation!

Thanks!

Randy

 

If you've got the time I'd love to know if there's any further info on the Diaclone reboot project there.

 

I think it's great that the extra weapons can store on Devastator's back. Takara really have thought of everything.  

 

Can someone mirror the pics, I can't get them to load on Allspark

 

Yes, thank you! This is great information.

 

Here you go:

UW Devy looks better with every new image, and it's nice to see the new weapons can all be stored away.

MP Ironhide is turning out more promising here.

Nothing we haven't seen before from TAV.

3A Optimus is glorious.

Don't know anything abt the Diaclone reboot but it looks cool.

 

Here you are.

 

Yeah there it is lol thanks!

 

Thanks for the upload. Is the Devastator using the Hasbro Scrapper. I thought the elbows folded different for combined mode.

 

Oh the unfortunate tire placement on Ironhide.  

Mmmm UW Dev does look good. Have to pass still(don't even know where I'd stick that behemoth) but oh so tempting.

 

Given the rough translation, it sounds to me like Hasui both used this as a practice run for an MP Devastator as well as a fallback in case an MP never gets green lit.

 

Diabattles, is it a one-shot MP like attempt like what Takara did for Brave Great Exkizer?

 

It looks like these pics do not feature the updated face sculpt that debuted at Wonderfest...

 

Depends how well it does I expect, can only hope it lasts longer then the brave masterpieces did.

 

I like the head on Hasbro's version of Devy way better

 

It's essentially the same except one has a movable visor.

Randy

 

Is that suppose to be the Hasbro or Takara Devastator. I really don't see the elbows.

 

That Diabattles is going high on my want list. Hopefully, it's the first of many more to come. Multiforce 14 should be next, IMO.

 

When I first read the thread title, I thought it said "diabetes."

Anyway, Ironhide looks much better in those shots. Crazy what good posing can do.

UW Devastator looks really good as well. I couldn't tell though whether the individual bot's weapons were a mix of black and green like the G1 toy was or if they were all black. Hoping for a black and green mix.
