Yeah I've just realised what's off on the deluxe is the legs aren't too long, just too slim.

 

Obviously because the cannons aren't removable.

 

Ahh. That seems like it would stir up a lot of anger against the figure. Hope that gets fixed.

 

With all these release dates being pushed around and this mp being pushed forward im really thinking Hasbro has put Takara up to this.

 

nobody tell him...

 

You use my favourite anime as a means to emphasise how I know nothing. I have noticed. And I do not appreciate it.

 

Sorry its just a running joke in the mpm-6 thread about how everyone asks about the cannons even though we've seen pic of them being removable. Didnt meant anything by using that gif, I have plenty of K-On reaction images and I thought it would fit. Sorry if that upset you.

 

Oh no I’m sorry I worried you! I hate online messaging. It never conveys what I’m meaning in a sentence. In fact it was quite clever using k-on images since I am clearly a fan. Hell my subtitle is my favourite of their songs. But back to ironhide I’m remembering how they did show them removed because hasbro can’t play with toys right.

 

Oh boo. I was wrong. Hope Ironhide drops before him.

 

That's alright. I think online messaging has its advantages, though. It gives me time to think about what I'm going to say without the pressure of needing to reply immediately. I take it as a chance to make up for all the stuff I've said that I wish I could take back, hence why I do my best to see things from other people's perspective.  

 

Nice to know this is confirmed but I'm definitely not preordering without at least some prototype pictures. Also, I have learned these days not to ever trust a release date for Transformers, official or otherwise.

 

I don’t blame you.

 

Until Hasbro starts talking, I'm not jumping the gun on this toy until it gets revealed. We're getting close to the end of the year and they've done absolutely NOTHING with this line except procrastinate, for all we know they might push its release date to January 2019.

 

Which would be okay since we’ll know the figure will match but yeah it’d be a lot later then we’d want. Honestly I think the figure should have been designed with the intent of it being released after the film. Right after the film is broadcast they get started on the figure with the accurate model available.

 

Does this figure really come out in less than 2 months and we dont have a single image of it?

 

Robot mode pics first. This will be an mpm figure. There's no reason to purchase it if it isn't screen accurate.

 

Since they're under this "new agreement" with paramount, the model might already be available for them to use. Guess we'll find out this weekend.

 

Wait sorry if this has been said before, are they going to show it off finally this weekend?

 

I think so.

 

Okay that sounds promising. I’m glad they’re willing to do that for the toys.
