So these are reissue of Japan version for the First Edition or the RID version but slap with Takaratomy sticker?

Hey thanx! Annnn per-order cancelled…… again. Huh. This sux.

I went ahead and pre-ordered Takara mainline Optimus, Terrorcon CJ (hopefully with the FE mold we saw protos of) and Bulkhead. I might cancel Bulkhead since I have a Takara FE Bulkhead on pre-order.
As for Optimus, yea it might be the RID mold but I'm hoping for some more accurate paint aps. I cant stand the silver chest and clear arms on the US version.

It's this guy.

I preordered the Takara AM-01 Optimus Prime ( from the Prime line ). Although im not sure which version this is as theres no pics. Im assuming its the closest version to the FE one that I can find. Can someone help me out?
SPLIT LIP
Oh I'm sure you are.
Drewdeluxe
Are any of these FE molds?
Probono
No Soundwave?
brianfett
No skyquake?
Skywarp2413
Anyone else noticed that Ironhide is in the same class as Dreadwing? It's got me speculating on the fact that Ironhide might be bigger than Bulkhead or even Optimus. Cause with a name like Dreadwing he can't really be as scrawny as Starscream, I see him rivaling Megatron in size.
Anyway, nice to see a Skywarp on there! Maybe Starscream found one of his seeker brothers on his hiatus?
Or maybe I'm looking too far into this and they have no correlation to the show. If so, I will be sad.

You're not nearly as hardcore as AlanGarou i'm affraid.

I wouldn't jump to conclusions. For all we know, Hasbro AU could release the 1st editions with the main line in March.
Stepper
Yah,since there is RID version,wondering how come there is no TakaraTomy ver for Wheeljack?
soundwaverulls
Wait! We aren't getting the superior first editions!??! Well. That's the final straw. I am definitely stopping buying Transformers toys.

This toy line really makes me sad to be Australian the FE BB and OP are clearly better than the RID versions and we wont get those. Importing isn't worth it because unlike so many other things TF toys seem to get marked up in a silly manner even by online retailers so any benefits to a strong aussie dollar and importing are destroyed by scalper style greed (and importing from the US is pointless because of the security based postage cost stupidity) good times to be from the lucky country………

Interesting. Knowing Takara, this could easily be a non-show related repaint.
Not entirely sure what these will be. Bikon could be Vehicon, and Eback is probably Evac.
Good to see a toy listing for him. I look forward to seeing what he'll look like, and what he'll turn into.

Well, there dies my idea…
