    What a twist!

    Should we expect Hasbro Pulse to be selling it as an import soon after?

    I think I'm more excited for this than 46. And I love BA but Lio is one of my favorite convoys"primes" he looks so clean and bad ass, love the sculpt in beast and robot mode, TT are killing it on the Beast era bots. Sucks for the pessimists.

    looks cool AF....but it aint for me. Really wish it was terrorsaur personally...that is the BWMP that I am really wanting. That said, it seems as though this is an in-demand character so...I am happy for all that are getting that which their heart desires.

    Considering just how many people on these boards complain about whenever things aren't more of the same - that is G1 as it pertains to the USA - it isn't unwarranted. Believe it or not, people have been waiting for the other parts of the franchise, such as RID 2001, the Unicron Trilogy, and Animated, to get its rightful due in the Generations line, but all we keep getting is more G1. It's super frustrating when you have elements of the franchise being completely ignored, save for a few special treats, and then you get rabid G1 fans complaining that those aren't more treats for them.

    Hopefully not, but for now I'm out of the game, and will probably be that way for the forseeable future.

    Loving that robot mode, but not a fan of the style of the alt mode. I think I\'ll wait for the inevitable \'toy accurate\' version, and hope that it has the proper sculpting and texture work that the original had.

    looks super cool. The lion mane looks way too busy, but I dig everything else.

    I wonder what kind of crazy price they'll attach to this one

    Nice to see them inching closer to the 2000s. Who knows, maybe MP UT or Animated figures could be around the corner.

    More money saved for me I suppose. Glad some folks are ecstatic for this but an easy pass for me.

    I totally agree with ya there, but I'm a geewunner and I just want them to finish what they and I started before I get too old to care. Yes, the other series' deserve it too, but at least finish up before moving on because making the newer bw and mpm's has slowed down the ability for takara to complete the line for us older folks.
    Now if they were to have different factories all churning out the different lines constantly, we would be been done years ago and everyone could get their dream bots alot quicker!

    But we need Optimus Prime V4. his chest windows are inaccurate to episode 16, scene 12, animation cel 43. how dare you want this franchise to move forwards or tackle less popular characters.

    I’m gonna pass. The original toy is still one of my favorite vintage beast war figures and this guy is too... soft?

    You, likewise, have no right to assume you have some sort of priority over other fans when it comes to getting new toys. MP G1 toys have been all that's come out pretty much since the inception of the Masterpiece line; I think you've had your time in the spotlight for now.
