    Of course, no weapons for the Jumpstarters, only the Targetmasters that don't fit them and don't belong to them. Fantastic :rolleyes: 

    I will probably skip these, which is a shame since the molds look fun, but the Targetmasters ruin this for me.

    God Fire Convoy is so sexy though... want.

    That's roughly £211 and that is madness. I want these two but I would have spent £150 at the most and even that is pushing it.

    Thing is though, the original is so good and screen accurate that there's not a lot an MP version could improve given the MP quality Takara puts out.

    Wow, definitely looks good. RID was what I grew up with and that Optimus figure was my grail. I would definitely get this set but if that TFSource price is accurate, I don't think I could pay the $280USD for this set. Luckily I managed to get one with all wheels intact from a user on here a couple years ago so it's not too big a loss for me. I'm gonna wait for Japanese sites like HLJ/AmiAmi and Amazon Japan to put up pre-orders and prices first then decide.

    God Magnus' blue definitely looks darker. Plus the symbol is fully painted on his head.

    Another collector pointed out that Super Fire Convoy's chest windows are now clear and we are seeing the connection point at the bottoms of the windows, not a new combination port.

    The real partners of the Targetmasters will probably be released with weapons belonging to these guys.

    Looks great, as usual. And I hope to god we get the actual Autobot Targetmasters soon, because their partners look great and it's a shame they're not paired up together.

    Impatiently waiting for HLJ to post preorders for Godfire Convoy. I got rid of my US versions some time back because I wanted to get the Japanese version. These look better than the originals, cheaper than finding the old giftset, and I can't wait!
    I hope they reissue all of Car Robots. I'd happily buy them all (again) minty fresh with more accurate deco and premium paint

    If the box is anything like the old giftset, it's probably going to be expensive to ship. Might be cheaper to get it from a US seller here.
