    Ooook...I’m just sayin, there are 4 bots in TF6. We already know bee has a figure in Wave one under the alias Stryker. Of the other 3, barricade is the most popular, therefore it makes sense for him to get a figure. Wether it’s meant to be a “puzzle” or not, there’s still a good chance its him.

    If Takara is falling in line with Hasbro, then why aren't all of these latest releases coming out in Japan?

    Finally! The prolonged drought of Bee toys has come to an end. Here I thought Hasbro and Takara forgot all about this drastically under used character.
    :p

    It's not from a listing, but from another type of source I'm not going to comment on. Maybe it's even better for you or anybody else not to believe it until 10 days later.

    The plot of Star Wars: The Force Awakens? And now you've stimulated me to see what the step numbers are for MV1 Bee. This quote set is ominous and I want to get to the bottom of it.

    I think the opposing question should be "Where's the Masterpiece and Star Wars 2.0 figures from Hasbro?".

    I wonder if barricade is coming in some form or fashion every back round from the studio series depicts a battle but no names they are only inferred. Unlike this one that directly mentioned barricade and the chase scene its odd to me.

    That too, although weren't they released prior to the "alignment" statement?

    After the Investor event on day before yesterday, I checked it out. Was told that the agreement actually happened back in 2016 because it takes about 2 years for a Transformers toy to go from a drawingboard to a shelf. They just collaborated for the toys. Distribution is entirely up to Takara in Japan. :)

    I swear to God... if Hasbro makes Shockwave a goddamm tank again... :banghead: 

    Hasbro seems universally against transforming robot guns, but not so much against future tanks. :confused:  Call me ancient: I think laser guns are a RAD alt mode! :eek:

    Hasbro must go through strict regulations if they are making a toy that turns into a gun. It's much easier to give a tank altmode.

    But they've ALWAYS collaborated on the toys, except for some Takara only ones.

    Especially for the USA. You can thank certain groups of people for that. MP Megatron or the real thing? You choose!

    I remember when I worked at Toysrus. It was against store policy to sell realistic Toy guns. Here we only sell Nerf Guns, Super Soakers, and multicolored Space guns.

    Some people would expect when MP36 will have a Hasbro release.

    Will look more into it and update you guys. But I'm sure we'll hear about the collaboration at NY Toy Fair.

    I mostly want to know the release date for Studio Series, Specifically Leader Class Blackout.

    Oh that will definitely be known. We usually do hear about release windows during the event.

    Around when that is, I'm expecting to see early ones on ebay. If it means spending a limb for 2 Leader Class Blackouts, so be it.
