    YEAH! FINALLY! The Now we're just waiting for these to Drop. The engineering on the Arm Bots is so much better than I was expecting! So, we're looking at the end of summer for these to release? Maybe we'll see Perceptor, two of the Constructicons, and an Optimus repaint before Drag Strip and Dead End?

    I have a feeling Dragstip and Dead End will be imminent. There's already an in-box shot of them, but I haven't seen box shots yet for any of the others (maybe OP).

    I think MS is actively trying to not release Prowl at this point.

    That's some nasty color difference on Prime
    Is that the current reissue?

    No, that's the first painted version, which IIRC was the second release of the mold overall. And yeah, the color difference looks bad, one of the reasons I never liked that version. The second painted version (1st pic) and the upcoming reissue (last three pics) look miles better in this regard.

    Yes on both counts (it's the first metallic version and the second one is great).

    I was thinking the same thing. I wanted to try NA for the individual bots but these guys are so well done I might have to double dip just because NA hasn't released any images and im afraid they are going to look weird and be to small.

    Good catch. Good to know that it is possible. They are set quite far back though.

    Well. I had to bite the bullet after those images... $123 is probably as cheap as it's going to get from here on out.

    ..ofcourse I find one for $118 right after.
    ..ok, nevermind. first has $4 shipping, second had $6.50 shipping so almost evens out. I'll go now.

    ...huh. This is the first Stunticons/Menasor kit I've seen that I've liked.
    Think I've missed the boat on preorders at my go-to store though.
