    That Ratbat is pretty interesting. I really dig the colors, and I guess I can live with Ratbat having a robot mode.

    Cool so far. Way to block half of Grimlock there. :) 

    looks like he does have darker or black thighs and hands though. So far, so good.

    Now BBTS needs to get the preorder up. Need me that Ratbat.

    Can't really see myself paying that much for Grimlock. I'll have to wait till I have the US version in hand and see what the Takara paint apps look like in more pictures.

    Ermahgerd, Senator Ratbat. I was wondering if that head would ever be used just yesterday.

    And only...$38. Ow.

    I was about to say...

    It was Takara that thought of making Senator Ratbat from Scourge before Hasbro?!

    I don't know who I am any more.... :(

    Yes it does, and yes you do. Just make sure it is after I get my order locked in though.

    I have the Universe Ratbat from the Cybertron Sideways mold, which I'm rather fond of. Never even considered how appropriate the Gen. Scourge mold would be. I like it!

    Takara FOC Grimlock isn't looking nearly as bling as some of us might have expected.

    While possible, we don't know if Hasbro is planning one too.
